From the 27th to the 29th of May, we headed to sunny Madrid for another yearly UIIN Conference, to foster academia and industry relationships. ☀
With this year’s theme based on shaping the Future of Talent and Innovation, the event mixed workshops, key note pannels, roundtables and lots of networking opportunities.
The rich discussions covered topics such as future education models and how Universities should adapt their curriculum to our changing world. Moreover, several Institutions shared their best practices and how they foster collaborative research.
Our coordinator, Rita Tomé Rocha, also had a lot to say, since she facilitated the workshop: “Are Innovation Managers walking the talk” based on the intricacies of innovation culture within Institutions and how should we position our mindsets to foster innovation internally.
As side events, we also had the opportunity to watch a Flamenco show and get a little taste of Spanish culture.
We would like to thank UIIN for another spectacular event and we will surely be present next year!
