torek, 4. oktober 2022 Ustvarimo vasico, v kateri je prijetno živeti - HACK Startup Village’22 // Let's create an attractive village to live in-HACK Startup Village’22
Upadanje števila prebivalstva, nekonkurenčnost v gospodarstvu, beg možganov, pomanjkanje infrastrukture, nizka stopnja dohodka, omejen dostop do storitev, okoljska in socialna vprašanja. Vse našteto so besede, ki jih pogosto uporabljamo pri opisovanju ruralnega okolja.
Ali bomo podeželsko okolje vedno videli v tej luči?
Koncept Startup Village, ki ga je uvedla Evropska komisija, predlaga nov, čisto drugačen pristop. Glavno vprašanje pa se glasi, kako lahko podeželje postane privlačno za zagonska podjetja?
Mednarodni spletni hekaton HACK Startup Village'22, ki ga organizira AgriFood Lithuania DIH, bo potekal od 21. do 23. oktobra 2022. Na hekatonu boste imeli to možnost, da ustvarite čisto svojo vizijo za izbrano podeželsko ali vmesno regijo za svojo državo. Izbrali pa si boste lahko tudi enega od izzivov kmetijsko-živilskega sektorja, ki jih bodo predstavila podjetja iz vse Evrope.
