How will we interact & exchange at the SWITCH-Med Action Network Event?
- There will be parallel tracks each focusing on the role of specific actors including industries, entrepreneurs, civil society organisations, big companies and financing institutions
- We will co-create and co-organise each track with our SWITCH-Med strategic partners.
- Our 4 SCP priority areas include food and agriculture, goods manufacturing, tourism, and housing and construction. We will discuss challenges and barriers to scale-up innovations.
- A range of facilitation & learning techniques (i.e. World Café, Open Space, PechaKucha, Matchmaking, Networking App, Experimental Theater and Learning Labs) will be used by strategic partners and session moderators.
- At the event, we will also host an Award on Eco-design funded by the Catalan Government. This Award includes a Euro-Mediterranean category to which companies, professionals and entrepreneurs from the region will be able to submit their proposals.
We will share with you more information soon at the upcoming conference website. Moreover, follow us now at Linked-In, Twitter and Facebook, You Tube.
