Are you a young graduate or a professional working in the SME, start-up or international cooperation sector? Or are you an expert interested in the opportunities of the Mattei Plan for Africa? The Work Café we are organising is a unique opportunity to bring together the brightest minds in Lazio and collaborate on innovative ideas and growth strategies related to one of the most ambitious projects in the international arena.
What is the Work Café?
The Work Café is a design thinking meeting that offers participants the opportunity to collaborate with industry experts, companies, diplomats and graduates. In small groups, we will discuss the challenges and opportunities of the Mattei Plan, a project that aims to create a new development model for Africa based on six pillars: Education, Agriculture, Health, Energy, Water and Infrastructure.
How does it unfold?
Divided into working tables, participants will use artificial intelligence tools to facilitate the creation of original solutions. Each table will work on a dedicated canvas, designed by Lazio Innova, with the support of a moderator and interaction with experts, start-ups and diplomatic representatives. The tables will be divided into the 6 pillars of the Mattei Plan: Education and Training, Agriculture, Health, Energy, Water, Infrastructure.
Networking opportunities
This event is not only a laboratory of ideas but also a unique opportunity to network with leading experts, dynamic companies and members of African embassies. You will be able to engage with them and discuss possible future collaborations.
