Transformation and digital innovation is a determining factor for the competitiveness of companies and institutions, with science and technology parks undertaking a crucial role in the development of the so-called fourth industrial revolution.<\/p>\n

Several examples of international companies who are standing out in the field of digital transformation and Industry 4.0 were presented during the XVI International Conference of the APTE, with some accredited science and technology parks revealing the characteristics of their Digital Innovation Hubs. Another aspect analysed during the conference was the funding of digital business transformation processes. This session was presented by the coordinator of the \u2018Innovation For Manufacturing SMEs\u2019 (I4MS<\/a>) initiative, Mayte Carracedo, and the Managing Director of the Mercado Alternativo Burs\u00e1til [Alternative Stock Market] (MAB<\/a>), Jes\u00fas Gonz\u00e1lez.<\/p>\n

The final speech of the conference was the presentation of the winning start-ups from the\u00a0Open Innovation 4.0<\/a> programme,<\/a>\u00a0which aims to solve the technological challenges of multinational companies via digitalisation.<\/p>\n

The event concluded by naming the winners of the\u00a0APTE 2018 awards for best practice in science and technology parks<\/a> and\u00a0awards for outreach through the media,<\/a>with this first edition being reported nationally in La Vanguardia and locally\/regionally in Sur.<\/p>\n
