DINA-ITC está presentando experiencias singulares que muestran las características y variedad de las relaciones, proporcionando formación a los actores del sistema español de innovación, y mostrando como perfeccionar la gobernanza de estos procesos. En esta presentación les describiremos cómo avanza este programa que coordina el Instituto de Gestión de la Innovación y del Conocimiento, (INGENIO, CSIC-UPV).

El hidrógeno renovable no genera emisiones contaminantes, por otra parte tiene la capacidad de ser almacenado como gas a presión o en estado líquido lo que permite que se pueda gestionar con más facilidad que otros vectores energéticos.
 
Distintos organismos internacionales han concluido que desde una perspectiva de recuperación económica, la inversión en proyectos ‘verdes’ genera más empleo y retorno económico a corto plazo por cada euro invertido, además de generar importantes ahorros económicos y ambientales a largo plazo.
 
El proyecto estratégico para la recuperación y transformación económica (PERTE) para Energías Renovables establece tres objetivos principales para dotar a España de las herramientas e instrumentos que permitan abordar con capacidades propias la transición energética.

Open Innovation in Citizen Science

ANDALUCIA KNOWLEDGE

According to the 'Green Book of Citizen Science' Citizen Science projects involve the general public in scientific activities and encourage the active contribution of citizens to research through their intellectual effort, their general knowledge or their tools and resources. Citizen science is emerging as an accessible tool for social intervention that allows communities to address the challenges that concern them, while providing the scientific community with a new space for both direct dialogue and collaboration in the development of certain research projects that would otherwise be unaffordable.

Evidence-based policies: Tools for knowledge transfer to the public sector

ÁGORA

The objective of this session is to share different tools that allow the incorporation of knowledge in regulation and public policies. These are methodologies that, with different levels of exposure and cost, can provide evidence that reduces uncertainty and allow, in the public sphere, the scaling up of solutions step by step -in a similar way to what happens with industrial innovations-.

There are at least four modalities of knowledge that could contribute to the design of policies.

1) Pre-existing knowledge, and for this we must promote the function of scientific advice to governments and parliaments,

2) Knowledge generated ad hoc in simulation experiments or in real public policy pilots – random control trials-

3) Knowledge encapsulated in solutions offered the private sector, promoting for this purpose tools that facilitate their testing and acquisition, such as sandboxes or pre-commercial public purchase schemes.

And 4) Knowledge co-created with public employees themselves and their users through various models, such as citizen laboratories or living labs.

Presentation: Bioeconomy Venture

ÁGORA

When we hear the word startup, we usually associate it with an innovative, disruptive idea with high potential. However, around 90% of these companies fail within their first three years of lifespan, mainly due to a lack of funding and management skills of their founders. In this context, the BIOECONOMYVENTURES project, that we are presenting at Transfiere 2023, is facilitating their access to funding while expanding the bio-based industry in the EU by accelerating the market entry of new technologies, processes, products, and applications.

Strategic projects for economic recovery and transformation (PERTE): circular economy framework

INNOVATION ROOM

The circular economy is a production and consumption model that seeks to extend the useful life of products (sharing, reusing, repairing, renting), which in practice translates into reducing the waste generated to a minimum. This concept contrasts with the traditional linear economic model based on produce, consume and throw away. Overcoming this model is vital to ensure the sustainability of the planet, bearing in mind that natural resources are finite, and to gain in efficiency and competitiveness. At this roundtable, MITECO will present its initiatives to achieve a sustainable, decarbonized, resource-efficient and competitive economy.

A national deep tech plan for Spain

Deep tech is at the heart of contemporary issues: on a geopolitical level, it is the confrontation stone of the Sino-US duel for global leadership and on an economic level, it is one of the answers to the current great challenges of humanity (food security, global warming and decarbonization, pandemic, energy supply...). To avoid getting stuck in stagflation and to remain independent and sovereign, governments must invest massively in deep tech. France, Germany and the United Kingdom have launched deep tech plans and it is part of the European Commission's "New Innovation Agenda", which the Spanish presidency of the EU will have to carry forward from July onward.

Deep Tech Venture Building: successfully bringing technologies from lab to market

ÁGORA

Both public and private agents increasingly focus on deep tech entrepreneurship as an effective strategy to transfer sophisticated technologies to the market. Thus, it is necessary to develop ecosystems in which the three fundamental pillars of any innovation ecosystem can be interrelated:

- People who generate technology-based ideas (minds).
- Managers capable of transforming technological ideas into business opportunities (management).
- Investors who are committed to deep tech (money) entrepreneurial initiatives.

During his presentation, Asier Rufino, CEO of TECNALIA Ventures, will share his perspective on the key role that venture builders play in the development of these environments of interrelation between minds, management and money.
