This programme is to help the business of the province of Castellón accelerate, and it began yesterday with a networking session in which businesspeople, teachers and organisers participated. After the phase to select projects in summer, nine companies scattered all around the province will begin training sessions this Friday evening, which will continue until December.

Among the selected projects, three are of companies in the agrofood sector, three others come from the information and communication technologies sector, one works in renewable energies, one in smart materials and the last one operates in the footwear sector.
