The Spider project
We are thrilled to announce that The Venture Builder has been selected to participate in SPIDER’s Twinning Programme. As part of this exciting opportunity, we will be partnering with KrugerLabs from Argentina, fostering cross-continental collaboration to drive digital transformation and innovation.
SPIDER is an EU-funded project that strengthens the long-standing tradition of collaboration between the European Union (EU) and Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) in digital transformation and Research & Innovation (R&I). With its theme, “Innovate Together: EU-LAC Digital Partnership,” SPIDER leverages the power of the BELLA network to bridge the gap between the EU–LAC digital dialogue commitments and their practical implementation.
The SPIDER project (EU-LAC Strategic Partnership for the Implementation of Digital Dialogues in R&I Cooperation) aims to connect key players from the EU and LAC ecosystems to network, share best practices, develop joint action plans, and explore opportunities centred around the BELLA infrastructure.
Key Technology Areas in Focus:
- Artificial Intelligence (AI)
- 5G Technology
- Blockchain
- Cloud Computing
- Cybersecurity
- Virtual Research Environments (VRE)
