The Adeje department of economic development and job creation, under councillor Raquel Rodríguez Alonso, has announced details of a congress on entrepreneurship and technology taking place in the CDTCA this Friday, June 3rd. The event will see new ideas presented to participants as well as up-and-coming job opportunities, the key to seeking funding and the potential for creating new employment niches in the world of technology.
The initiative is the result of the programme directed at entrepreneurs in the IT sphere who have been undertaking training and practical work as part of a programme based on International Labour Organisation’s international methodology IMESUN (Start and Improve Your Business). Those taking part in the training have been receiving personalised attention in business set ups, etc.
The congress will be in three parts. The first section will see presentations on opportunities in entrepreneurship and technology sector from different bodies. The second section will focussed on the results achieved by those who have been taking part in training, with diplomas to be awarded to all who have successfully completed the course. The final part of the event will be a working breakfast where people can sit and exchange ideas.
The congress has been organised under the SMART-ECO project which is working to improve digital competitivity in the businesses in the MAC zone (Madeira, the Azores, and the Canaries), with financing from the European Regional Development fund (FEDER).
