• Inn&Cia event: the main objective of this event is to stimulate
social innovation and to foster bottom-up innovation. The first
event was organised in Seville on November 2011 and was very
successful. The event is a new way to generate value thanks to the
creativity and innovation of people in order to detect their needs.
One of the objective of this event has been to expose some of the
projects proposed by the users of the rural labs and try to establish
a connection between these ideas and public and private investors
(for example Banks ). This event has been reproduced in other cities
and has been converted in a meeting point between innovative and
creative people and possible sponsor and investors.
