Beta-i Newsletter - events and much more

Between wrapping up #LIS’18 and all the great contacts and connections we made there, to following the Protechting bootcamp week, we’ve been pretty much on ’sprint mode' for the past 2 weeks. Still, we all deserve some time to time to think things through, wouldn’t you agree?

When we started looking at Education as a strategic area for Beta-i, it was because we do believe that, in order to better understand the ever shifting world around us, we need better tools. We all see and decode the world as it is today, but what about tomorrow? That’s the main question SingularityU Portugal Summit Cascais (that will take place on October 8 and 9), is focused on. Singularity, the university that educates, inspires and empowers leaders to apply exponential technologies to address humanity’s grand challenges, is coming to Portugal, precisely to debate and create this near future.

Beta-i, Cascais Municipality, and Nova SBE are organizing this prestigious event, with the close support of founding partners Ageas, Galp and Semapa. After all, and borrowing the words of Peter Diamandis, Executive Chairman & Co-Founder of Singularity University, “your mindset is your biggest weapon, technology can take things that are scarce and make them abundant”.

In the same note, one final reference: the Rock in Rio Innovation Week kicked off yesterday, and will last until June, 29. Beta-i is a proud innovation partner, and if you want to join entrepreneurs, artists, startups and freelancers, that’s the place to be these days. Yes, Rock in Rio is way more than music ;-)

Sincerely,
