All INDUSTRY 5.0 projects including webinars, workshops, startups, and many more funded by the European Commission have something in common. It is the ban applied on the presence of INDUSTRY 5.0 Founder and members of the INDUSTRY 5.0 AMBASSADORS NETWORK representing INDUSTRY 5.0 principles in 119 countries, a maritime ecosystem, and outer space? Why do you think does European Commission applied this ban after referring to the INDUSTRY 5.0 DEFINITION BY MICHAEL RADA, in their very first publication in which the #EC announced the integration of INDUSTRY 5.0 INTO THE EUROPEAN SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK on January 5(7), 2021. Look for reference no 68. INDUSTRY 5.0 AMBASSADORS NETWORK Industry 5.0 INDUSTRY 5.0 STRATEGIC ALLIANCE

GOVTECH AT THE CORE 🏛️ Reinventing #B2G as a viable (and yes, even exciting) model by truly understanding the #public sector. Diego Docavo, head of startups at Gobe Studio, shared the particularities of working with public administration as a client, leaving us with three #learnings: ❌ Expecting custom tenders tailored for individual companies. ✅ Opening up competition to include a wider range of companies. ❌ Viewing the public sector as an inaccessible "black box." ✅ Applying strategy and methodology to navigate and win contracts. ❌ Assuming the B2G market lacks profitability. ✅ Recognizing high customer value, if CAC is effectively managed. Gobe Studio is doing phenomenal work by collaborating closely with public sector agents to create smoother processes for the #startup ec(h)osystem. Check out their open calls and watch for the next edition of their #acceleration program, any updates will be shared on Senda.

Next week, on 23 April, we are hosting an exclusive in-person panel event and networking drinks in partnership with #Sifted100 to tackle the question of whether the UK is doing enough to safeguard and propel its #tech ecosystem in the face of mounting competition in Europe and the US?     Speakers include Sifted Head of Research, Jonathan Sinclair, Glenn Weinstein, CEO of Cloudsmith, and our Partner and Head of #VentureCapital, David Strong.    The panel will be taking a deep dive into the findings of Sifted’s recently published UK and Ireland Fastest Growing Startups Report 2024. The report shone the spotlight on the UK’s remarkable ability to produce some of the world's most successful #startups, particularly in the #fintech space.     It also highlighted the persistent barriers UK and Irish startups face when looking to #scale here, in comparison to their US counterparts and how some European counterparts are jostling to be the hub of choice for #AI, #deeptech and climate-focused technologies. Can the UK withstand the threat?    We’ll delve into existing proposals to better support UK startups going for #growth and what else is needed to transform the UK from a startup basecamp to the place to scale and eventually IPO. The panel will also consider the impact of impending #AI #regulation and how the UK and Ireland can take full advantage of emerging #ClimateTech and DeepTech opportunities.     To register your interest in attending the event please get in touch with events@marriottharrison.co.uk   https://lnkd.in/gkCbNqpx
