The incubator aims to encourage innovation and creativity in the field of building technology, materials, and renewable energy. The incubator will incubate creative ideas and projects in order to develop them for emerging companies in this field.
Dr. Ahmed Fariwan presented a summary of the objectives of the RESMYLE project, which aims to employ the principles and elements of sustainable development in order to employ young people and increase their social integration in view of the increasing difficulties for the professional integration of young people, especially the group of young people between the ages of 18 and 29 years (NEETS) who have either finished or left their studies. They did not receive any training and did not have a job opportunity in the Mediterranean region.
The program also highlights the growing challenges of environmental protection in the Mediterranean region and the new opportunities it can create in many areas: waste and recycling, mobility, risk prevention, and others.
