We finished the regional tour in Poprad

We finished our regional tour with a visit to Poprad. In the beginning, Robert Mojsej from MIRRI and Martina Slivkova, Head of the Strategic Development Department of PSK, discussed the positive changes and opportunities that the new Operational Programme of Slovakia will bring to the regions and their entrepreneurs. They stressed the new role of the county as a link between the local innovation and education ecosystem.

The innovation ecosystem needs to be supported in the regions

With the Hopero project, together with another European Centre for Digital Innovation (EDIH) EXPANDI 4.0, we went to the regions and this time we visited the city of Žilina. With the support of our partners Inovia and the University of Žilina, we organised an event to discuss artificial intelligence, Industry 4.0, getting funding for digitalisation and how the innovation ecosystem supports entrepreneurs.
