The role of clusters and sportstech innovation, key topics of the round tables led by INDESCAT at the SPORTCITIES fair in Valencia

This Thursday, November 20th, INDESCAT took part in the SPORTCITIES Expo in Valencia, where we facilitated two round tables together with the Barcelona Sports Hub to highlight the role of a sports cluster and sportstech innovation in transforming cities and the sports industry.


The value of a sports cluster: competitiveness, growth and innovation

In the first session, participating companies agreed on the essential role that clusters play in connecting them with innovation, emerging trends, technological advances and funding opportunities. They also highlighted the benefits in terms of knowledge sharing, visibility and the creation of new contacts thanks to networking, joint projects and connections between members and with other clusters.

Participants:

  • Mercè Vilamú (Aerobic & Fitness – O’Live Fitness)
  • Alex Salas (NORTH 3)
  • Jordi Casabella (Placenet – The Internet of Places)
  • Moderation: Andrea Jiménez (INDESCAT)


Boosting sportstech innovation in the public-private sphere

The second round table focused on collaboration between private entities, startups and cities as a key element in building the cities of the future. Speakers shared experiences and projects that promote more active, connected and healthy urban environments.

Participants:

  • José Antonio Ferreiro (Hoop Streetball Community)
  • Daniel Martínez (Wevy)
  • Adrian Viñuales (Activy ES)
  • Moderation: Xavier Trallero (Barcelona Sports Hub)


Connecting with the sportstech ecosystem

During the day, INDESCAT also visited the stands of our partners Kompan España, KOMPINI, SUIFFLAND and the Institute of Biomechanics (IBV), strengthening synergies with key actors in the sector.

INDESCAT would like to thank SPORTCITIES Expo, Feria Valencia, Feria de Valladolid and SHOW2BE for the opportunity to continue promoting the cluster model within the sportstech ecosystem.

This activity was carried out within the framework of the cluster’s Fitness and Health Working Group.
