For the third consecutive year, with significant participation of institutions, businesses, and initiatives, we are organizing the online conference "Innovation in Crete today and the institutions that support it 3.0", on Friday, February 18, at 3:00 pm.
Our aim is to document the evolution of innovation in Crete during the pandemic and the prospects for the new year.
What does innovation in Crete mean today? Who does it concern? Which sectors of the economy does it touch? Which organizations support the efforts of teams and businesses to innovate? What financial tools are available? What other assistance is available? What are the opportunities and challenges created by the pandemic?
