The 2nd Garaia Open Innovation is an initiative undertaken by the Garaia Technology Park in Mondragón, in collaboration with ISEA S.COOP.
Garaia Open Innovation is an open innovation experience aimed at promoting the creation of new business opportunities, diversification and the competitive improvement of Basque companies through collaborative innovation.
Garaia Open Innovation aims to promote opportunities for collaboration that could generate products, services and new businesses that respond specifically to the needs of Basque companies and reach the market within a short period of time.
In the preceding months, agents from the Basque Science and Technology System have submitted expressions of interest by proposing technologies, intellectual property assets and business concepts designed to respond to the needs of Basque companies.
From now on, the contributions of these agents will be disseminated to Basque companies so that they can assess the attractiveness and technological and business potential on offer.
On April 29th between 9:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., an on-site and online convention will be held at the Garaia Technology Park facilities, which will be attended by both interested companies and agents from the Basque Science and Technology System who have submitted proposals.
During this Convention, these agents will have the chance to present their proposals in detail to participating companies. Networking events will make it possible to realise collaborative projects that are likely to lead to marketable results in the short term.
