\u202f <\/p>\n
The initiative of the Ministry of Economy, Employment and Industry, which is part of the Estrategy of Intelligent Specialization of Galicia (RIS3), is aimed at innovative and \/ or technology based SMEs.

What's New? <\/p>\n
\u202f <\/p>\n
This company accelerator this year includes novelties specially designed to increase the individualization of services and focuses on two large groups of actions. <\/p>\n
\u202f <\/p>\n

\u202f <\/p>\n
Agrobiotech, secondly, includes cross-cutting actions in which the companies benefiting from the first edition of the initiative, such as the II Agrobiotech Innovation Meeting, which is oriented to professionals and relevant agents, and which will take place in the Tecnolóxico Park of Galicia, can take part. As a novelty in this edition, the active participation of the clusters, technology centers and referent companies will be sought. Last year, 330 participants from Spain, France and Portugal took part in this congress, with 56 expert speakers, 28 exhibitors of innovative products and services and more than 130 one-to-one meetings. <\/p>\n
\u202f <\/p>\n

\u202f <\/p>\n
The evaluation of the companies that participated was high with respect to their results: 100% recommend the program; 82% of SMEs plan to generate employment; And 73% report improvements in management and opening of new lines of business. In addition, it should be noted that the innovations included in this year's edition are the result of an evaluation made by the Xunta of the actions carried out both by the companies and by the collaborating entities (Tecnópole, Cetal, Clusaga, Asebio and Bioga). <\/p>\n
\u202f <\/p>\n
In short, this program is aimed at increasing the innovative potential of Galician SMEs, promoting the development of new innovative products, establishing relationships with new partners and facilitating the transfer of information between companies. The aim is to promote the consolidation of companies and their sustainable growth. <\/p>\n
