The EXCELIVING project, funded under the call “Cluster Excellence“, of the COSME-HORIZON 2020 program, is led by the AMBIT Cluster (Spain) and has the participation of the Smartech Cluster (Spain), Transylvanian Furniture Cluster (Romania), Cluster Habitat Sustentável (Portugal) and Danish Life Science Cluster (Denmark).
On the first day of the event, after the reception of the EXCELIVING partners and visiting entities, the project and all the entities were presented, with sessions of bilateral meetings (B2B and C2C) and visits to three laboratories focused on in technology and innovation, in which were presented the services available to entities in the different sectors of activity in the Habitat value chain, namely in the furniture area.
The second day featured a discussion on the role of DIHs (Digital Innovation Hubs) in facilitating cross-border collaboration between SMEs and a visit to the Antares Romania factory and the laboratories of the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, with the aim of identifying synergies and promote partnerships for projects and business opportunities.
On the last day, the ClusterXchange participants were present at the IQ DIGITAL SUMMIT CLUJ, whose main theme was Artificial Intelligence and its impact on our lives and business. This event brought together companies, start-ups and other entities, thus providing a favorable context for sharing knowledge and inspiration.
Once again, ClusterXchange allowed entities from Denmark, Spain, Portugal and Romania to develop new partnerships at an international level, reinforce synergies and explore new business opportunities abroad.
The EXCELIVING project will hold its third ClusterXchange event in Barcelona (Spain) in October 2023. Stay tuned!
