The International Association of Science Parks and Areas of Innovation (IASP) announced a new partnership between innovation clusters worldwide, IASP writes in a press release<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new Innovation Districts Alliance has as founding members PI Buenos Aires (Argentina), Melbourne Innovation Districts (Australia), Porto Digital (Brazil), TusCity (Nanjing), CHJ Innovation Center (Shanghai) (China), Berlin Adlershof (Germany), MIND – Milano Innovation District (Italy), Glasgow City Innovation District and White City Innovation District (UK) and 22@Barcelona (Spain) acting as coordinator. \u00a0Membership is open with other innovation districts worldwide warmly invited to join.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In IASP’s view, innovation districts<\/a> are a key tool to build environmentally, economically, and socially sustainable cities. They can be\u00a0a mechanism for urban, economic, and social transformation. <\/p>\n\n\n

Mobility of talent and technology <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Coordinated by former IASP President Josep Piqu\u00e9, the goal of the new alliance is to promote the mobility of talent, technology, and capital. Sharing knowledge and best practices between innovation districts enhances their complementarity too. It will also consider the creation of performance indicators and an assessment framework. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

IASP CEO Ebba Lund said: \u201cSince we first opened our membership to innovation districts and other areas of innovation a few years ago, IASP has been proud to represent a growing number of these urban projects. They make a vital key contribution to sparking innovation and driving development in their cities. This group will help them learn from each other, share best practices, and showcase some of the vital work they are doing in their local communities.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Josep Piqu\u00e9 added: \u201cThe districts will also benefit from interaction with other types of innovation spaces, such as science & technology parks, areas of innovation, innovation hubs, and more. Being part of the IASP global network gives our alliance the great advantage of a large, powerful platform that has been smoothly operating for years so that we can use many of its contacts, meetings, and services from day one.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2084,"featured_media":515943,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"advgb_blocks_editor_width":"","advgb_blocks_columns_visual_guide":""},"categories":[42],"tags":[129775,23854,829],"location":[39958],"internal_archives":[],"class_list":["post-439147","selected","type-selected","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sustainability-nl","tag-iasp","tag-innovation-district","tag-technology","location-spain"],"blocksy_meta":[],"acf":[],"featured_img":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/rotterdam-139006_960_720.jpg","coauthors":[],"author_meta":{"author_link":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/author\/mauro-mereu\/","display_name":"Mauro Mereu"},"relative_dates":{"created":"Posted 3 years ago","modified":"Updated 3 years ago"},"absolute_dates":{"created":"Posted on March 7, 2023","modified":"Updated on March 7, 2023"},"absolute_dates_time":{"created":"Posted on March 7, 2023 11:00 am","modified":"Updated on March 7, 2023 11:00 am"},"featured_img_caption":"","tax_additional":{"category":{"linked":["Sustainability<\/a>"],"unlinked":["Sustainability<\/span>"],"slug":"category","name":"Categories"},"post_tag":{"linked":["IASP<\/a>","innovation district<\/a>","technology<\/a>"],"unlinked":["IASP<\/span>","innovation district<\/span>","technology<\/span>"],"slug":"post_tag","name":"Tags"},"language":{"linked":["EN<\/a>"],"unlinked":["EN<\/span>"],"slug":"language","name":"Tags"},"post_translations":{"linked":["pll_6407b13f37562<\/a>"],"unlinked":["pll_6407b13f37562<\/span>"],"slug":"post_translations","name":""},"location":{"linked":["Spain<\/a>"],"unlinked":["Spain<\/span>"],"slug":"location","name":"Locations"},"internal_archives":{"linked":[],"unlinked":[],"slug":"internal_archives","name":"Internal Archives"}},"series_order":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/selected\/439147","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/selected"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/selected"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2084"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/515943"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=439147"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=439147"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=439147"},{"taxonomy":"location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/location?post=439147"},{"taxonomy":"internal_archives","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal_archives?post=439147"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
