BISITE attended Startup Olé in the category of research groups and besides getting good contacts we have laid the foundations for new projects

Juan M. Corchado on 19 April 2018. Thursday.

Startup Olé has become an internationally renowned event in the field of business and technology. In this fourth edition we had the opportunity to learn about interesting proposals and the latest developments in different national and international sectors and companies. This annual event offers a great opportunity to meet other participants and share experiences, exchange knowledge and even collaborate.

Our BISITE research group had the pleasure of participating in this fourth edition together with a large group of accelerators, investors, universities, etc. On this occasion, we were able to present the developments that we are working on and the novelties in the field of education that will be introduced next year. We also spoke of our collaboration with IBM and the new projects that we have embarked on, and we also talked to other companies and actors about proposals that will definitely become real projects soon.

I would like to thank the event organizers for this opportunity. It has been a privilege for us and all the participants to attend this Startup Olé 2018.
