The Port of Tarragona has developed an integrating open innovation initiative, Som-Inn Port, which is committed to fostering the relationship between all the agents in the port community, in order to innovate in processes, services and business models in the Port of Tarragona. The initiative sets sail the coming 21st of June. We hope to see you there!
“Som-Inn Port”: the Port of Tarragona’s Innovation Ecosystem
Som-Inn Port is a programme of open innovation, where organisations belonging to the Port Community and its stakeholders collaborate in order to innovate in the processes, services and products of the Port of Tarragona. In this way, Som-Inn Port aims to promote the creation of economic, social and cultural value by developing high-impact projects.
The aim of Som-Inn Port, the Port of Tarragona’s Innovation Ecosystem, is to facilitate the ability for its members to:
- Jointly explore and investigate new key opportunities for innovation that enable the Port of Tarragona to stand out from the rest.
- Identify common innovation challenges (of all kinds, both technological and others)
- Create multidisciplinary teams to solve these challenges, by employing flexible methodologies such as Design Thinking and Design Sprint.
- Train the agents of the port community in innovation, in order to spread the culture of innovation among all the agents involved.
- Generate opportunities for networking between the variety of agents involved, thereby multiplying the synergies and opportunities for innovation.
