- Innovation, the successful exploitation of new ideas, is widely recognized as a major driver of economic growth. The same goes for globalization. However, three-quarters of the world’s population is denied access to the benefits of these two phenomena.
- This year’s TII annual conference, which was organized in collaboration with the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), put the spotlight on how innovation, science and new technology is being harnessed through a whole range of international, national, corporate and private programmes, schemes and initiatives for the benefit of the world’s developing countries and populations. Many TII members from the university, business development and consultancy sectors are already involved in this process.
- Participation is free of charge, but prior registration is mandatory.
MAC-Team made a presentation of the AFI-MAC project on "Proactive Incubators and entrepreneurship development support" in the session 6 on "Innovation support services and management".
