  • The challenges of industry 4.0 and advanced manufacturing
  • Inclusive entrepreneurship

The protagonists:

“The Campania Region – says Valeria Fascione, Minister for Internationalization, Startup and Innovation of the Campania Region - gets a long term relation with EBN network. De Luca staff has promoted startup and entrepreneurial culture at the centre of its action. It is in this sense that we have been instrumental in helping young potential entrepreneurs, such as Erasmus for Startup, to offer our young startupers the opportunity to go abroad to experience international incubators. “

“In Campania there is a great deal of work on startup promotion and the territorial ecosystem is very vital. EBN is a network that works for new innovative companies. The fundamental idea – says Javier Echarry, CEO of EBN – is that companies that come closer to the network have the opportunity to benefit from all the services and benefits of a European-level network. Structures that join the EBN network can host companies coming from Campania, and regional incubators such as Campania NewSteel can do the same with the most start-ups in the European scenario. This maximizes the virtuous exchange within the network.”
