I received an email from a friend of mine who is a whizz economist called Elizabet Juan Tressera. She says;
"Let me drop a line to communicate that I have recently joined the ESADECREAPOLIS team in Barcelona as Innovation Lead. ESADECREAPOLIS is a pioneer business park with spaces for firms that want to work under an open & cross innovation philosophy. My mission is to facilitate fruitful interactions amongst companies by developing services, activities and events as well as liaising with them to external networks & partners.
It is a big challenge that I face with great energy. And I have the great pleasure of being back in my hometown after many years working abroad. [Elizabet is an alumni of the ESADA business school.]
I hope that we'll keep in touch personally and professionally. Do not hesitate to contact me if you feel there are synergies or potential collaborations and you are very welcome if you want to pay a visit."
So of course I immediately paid a web visit to www.esadecreapolis.com which I can report looks very interesting.
It is not built yet so the images are a bit fuzzy still, but the idea of linking a business centre with a business school is brilliant and the ethos of sharing innovation is I'm sure the way to go. However its a very easy idea to copy (I'm already working out how we can have one in WHitehill Bordon!) so the secret of success will be in the execution.
Good luck Elizabet!
