11. Join the open network
For 10 years 6 Minutes of Serendipity has detected, coached
and highlighted projects that use information and
communications technologies to enable innovative services,
behaviours and practices.
6 Minutes of Serendipity's network and events bring together
digital industry pioneers, regional economic developers, social
economy entrepreneurs, artists, investors, users, and innovators.
We are interested in building partnerships towards a common
open innovation network. We hope to co-organize 6MoS with
partners in other countries or regions, as well as with industry
organizations or large companies with an open innovation
strategy.
