CreaTech Consortium Meets in Naples! 

Last week, our consortium partners from across Europe gathered in Naples for the 2nd CreaTech Consortium Meeting: Two days of collaboration, reflection, and forward thinking on how to strengthen innovation at the intersection of Culture, Creativity, and Technology.

Hosted by Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche for two days, the consortium mapped out the road ahead for the Capacity Building Program, the Knowledge Labs, and the Start-up Booster Program: CreaTech's three pillars driving innovation where culture, creativity, and technology converge.

- The Capacity Building Program will soon engage Higher Education Institutions in a new cycle of learning experiences that bridge creative thinking and digital transformation.

-  The upcoming Knowledge Labs will act as experimental spaces for sharing methodologies, connecting academia and industry through co-creation and research-driven innovation.

-  The Start-up Booster Program will continue empowering emerging entrepreneurs in the Cultural and Creative Industries with mentoring, tools, and international visibility.

- The sessions also highlighted the importance of communication, dissemination, and transferability, ensuring that CreaTech’s impact reaches far beyond the consortium.

A huge thank you to all partners: University of Tirana, EMUNI University, University of Bedfordshire, University of Patras, AAB College, Lascò, European Creative Hubs Network, and the Center for Education and Development for their energy and insights, the next steps are already in motion!

A special thanks goes to Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche for organizing this fruitful meeting and for hosting us in beautiful Naples.
