The AA Technological Hub has established two centers for aggregation and services for CCIs (Cultural and Creative Industries) in Spilimbergo and Pordenone. Two hubs set to define visions and strategies for the growth of the cultural and creative ecosystem. Spilimbergo’s one is specializes in design and photography, while Pordenone center focuses on the audiovisual sector and digital technology for cultural fruition.
To create these centers, it was essential to engage administrations, innovators, researchers, and entrepreneurs who bring excellence in the development of PPPs (Public-Private Partnerships).
Within the EUREKA 2024 Fair, the Polo AA is organizing four events aimed at bringing together the actors of this network in 2 thematic meetings and 2 workshops. These scheduled activities find an ideal space for dialogue both in the innovation triangle, where research, education, and business move in unison, and in the ecosystem where creativity, digital technology, and culture act as drivers of development.
