ECONOMÍA AZUL: Programme to support the hiring of highly specialised personnel for the development of R&D&I and experimentation projects related to the exploitation of island marine resources.

The programme to support the recruitment of highly specialised personnel for the development of R&D&I and experimentation projects related to the sustainable use of the island’s marine resources is based on the creation of an employment pool specialised in areas related to the Blue Economy on the island of Gran Canaria. It aims to strengthen capacities for attracting, managing, implementing and demonstrating R&D&I projects of high social and economic impact based on knowledge and innovative technologies, as well as participation in international consortia. These projects will foster and facilitate knowledge transfer, collaboration, technology maturation, attraction of technological entrepreneurs and the gestation of innovative business projects.
