The Cluster companies attend 4YFN – 4 Years From Now

Thanks to the collaboration agreement between the Cluster and the Mobile World Capital, the Cluster members have been able to attend 4YFN — an international meeting of emerging technology companies. More than 20,000 people and about 700 investors have attended this year. This is a great opportunity to learn first-hand about the latest trends in technological entrepreneurship.

 

Challenges and opportunities in the fields of education and media

Educational technology and audio-visual companies met in a session aimed at exploring new forms of collaboration and business opportunities arising from the field of education. The session was organised by Edutech Cluster, a group of companies and entities in the ICT education sector, and the Cluster.

The work session was built around three main ideas: “Virtual reality, increased reality and education”, “Gamification and other participatory resources” and “Creation of audio-visual content”.

 

Tourism and media. Opportunities, models and options

For the second consecutive year, the Audio-visual Cluster participated at the “Saló del Cinema i les Sèries” (Cinema and Series Show), a meeting place for professionals and fans of the sector that takes place annually in La Farga de l’Hospitalet. This time the Cluster has taken part by organising “Tourism and Audio-visual. Opportunities, models and options”— a session aimed at reflecting on the growing relationship between audio-visual productions and the tourism sector.
