05.09.2011 News
Forl? (Italy) - Romagna Creative District, in collaboration with 'L'Arte di Innovare,' is pleased to invite all professionals, entrepreneurs, academics, students and representatives in the cultural, creative, economic, social, scientific, technical and political sectors, to attend 'L'innovazione Responsabile' (Responsible Innovation) taking place in Forli, Italy from 9-10 September 2011.
What is responsible innovation?
It is a complex phenomenon delineating a way of thinking that goes outside the box of traditional models and opens a new chapter in the discourse of innovation, whereby sustainability and cross-disciplinary participation are principal ingredients, and where sparks of creative intuition are transformed into real outcomes that create positive change in the community.
L'innovazione responsabile is a yearly meeting of minds from around the region of Romagna, Italy and around the world, an open gathering to discuss the strategic importance of innovation for a sustainable future for everybody. It is the third event, launched in 2009 by 'L'Arte d'innovare' (the Art of Innovation), attracting politicians, entrepreneurs, private and public companies, professionals and intellectuals working to develop local and global strategies to move the region towards becoming a catalyst for innovation. This is the first year that L'Arte d'innovare has collaborated with Romagna Creative District, involving over 30 partners from creative and cultural fields to bring an even greater depth of interdisciplinary talent to the event and to reveal new perspectives on the theme of responsible innovation.
'L'innovazione responsabile' presents a rich program of thought-provoking conferences and creative events including performances, concerts, exhibitions and workshops that will take place all around the historical centre of Forl?, from its majestic buildings and galleries, to its piazzas and streets, from its open air arena to its shops, bars and restaurants. An entire street will be converted into an open air caf? of creativity with shops and residents engaging with visitors interactively. Numerous studios will open their doors to welcome visitors with workshops, demonstrations and interviews. Even vacant spaces and abandoned sites will come alive during these 2 days with an initiative to revitalise the city through cultural and creative events.
Participants will be led through a rich course of discovery over the two days:
