The Challenge
INCUBATING A NEW INNOVATION DISTRICT IN BARCELONA:
THE RECOVERY OF THE LITTORAL FRONT BETWEEN BADALONA PORT AND THE BESÒS RIVER
We are very proud to announce that our challenge is provided by Daria Tataj, one of the first members of the EIT Governing Board and advisor to EU Commissioner Moedas. Her company Tataj Innovation wants your support in renovating Barcelona's Littoral Front.
Let’s imagine that the littoral front between Badalona Port and The Besòs River becomes over the next 15 years a new innovation hotspot on the Barcelona metropolitan map....
- Inquire: what else is moving in the area and what's new?
- Think: who are investors interested in the area?
- Strategize: what are the needs and challenges and how could you provide solutions? Who could become a client, industry partner, investor and sponsors for your entrepreneurial project?
