In a world where technologies are increasingly prevalent, many opportunities arise to transform and strengthen technological and training services for the Galician and national ecosystem. Therefore, this event aims to present these options, focusing on SMEs, including end users and technology providers from the manufacturing sector as well as academic entities.

The initiative is framed within two European projects: AI REDGIO 5.0 and AI-MATTERS, in which Gradiant and AIMEN participate respectively, in collaboration with GAIN and DATAlife. The event will demonstrate effective and efficient synergies between these two European projects.

When: Tuesday, April 8, 2025, from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Where: Laser Applications Center, AIMEN Technology Center. Cataboi Industrial Estate SUR-PPI-2 (Sector 2) Plot 3, O Porriño (Pontevedra)
