Interreg Project DA-Space WORKSHOP: “Open Innovation to raise Entrepreneurship skills and Public Private Partnership in Danube Region” was held in EU Info Center in Podgorica on 11 June 2019

Workshop within the project DA-SPACE labs was organized in cooperation with the Montenegrin Pan-European Union on the topic: “Open innovation in order to improve entrepreneurial skills and private-public partnerships in the Danube region” on June 11, 2019 in the EU Info Center.

The DA-SPACE Initiative is attempting to establish a model of innovative workshops in which companies, public administrations, universities and the civil sector will have the opportunity to gain new knowledge that they can use to create the basis for innovation in their areas of operation. So far, DA-SPACE has established cooperation with many organizations in countries such as Germany, Romania, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Croatia, Serbia, Slovenia and Hungary.

Within the framework of this project, which is partly realized in Montenegro, in partnership with the Montenegrin Pan-European Union, the Open Innovation Model is implemented within DA-SPACE European project know-how.

Participants of the workshop were representatives of: Faculty of Economics, the MPEU, IT faculties, high schools, Chamber of commerce, Technopolis, tourist organizations, development agencies, digital companies and others interested.

Participants had the opportunity to participate in workshops on how to create an open innovation ecosystem through a model of open innovation laboratories where companies, public authorities, universities and civil society can create the foundations for innovation along with young talents. Benefits are mutual, both for participants and companies. The results are useful in order to define a transnational strategy for the promotion of innovation and entrepreneurship in the Danube region.
