BBF

A few weeks ago, on 28 February, I received an invitation to take part in a participatory meeting at Bilbao Berrikuntza Faktoria (BBF). The message was clear: I was invited as a key agent of innovation to, together with other people, promote the innovative ecosystem of Bizkaia. The idea was to bring together “a fundamental part of the current innovation network and the inhabitants of the BBF to understand how to take care of this ecosystem that gives us life and decide what steps we can take together”. Of course, I went there, after all, it is “my topic” and if I could contribute something, it was one of those moments I couldn’t miss. (more…)

Ki ¿what?

Imagine that you already know it. Imagine that you have even had fun with its products, services, and multiple consultancies. That’s good, isn’t it? Well. Now, imagine that you know of someone who hasn’t had the opportunity, either because the information hasn’t reached them or because they thought it “didn’t suit them”. That is one of the main reasons why I am writing this post today.

If you want to know about a project that started to become a reality a few years ago and that has some entrepreneur women behind it, keep reading.

Dispelling the myth about social entrepreneurhsip

Today’s post was not this one, but I admit that, by chance, while I was looking for information for “the post I was writing”, I came across a video that I liked. It could not be otherwise, I confess. I have a special affection for Ashoka. The video I am sharing with you today seems very clear and direct.

What do I like about this video? Above all, I like the fact that Maite Arango y Alexandra Mitjans, two women from different generations of Ashoka, talk about social entrepreneurship. Among the keywords of their conversation, I share with you the following:

  • Work
  • Challenges
  • Solutions
  • Innovation
  • Initiatives
  • Impacts
  • Contribution
  • Legacy
  • Technology
  • Humanity
  • Ethic
  • Education
  • Awareness
  • Commitment
  • Empathy
  • Sustainability
  • Conviction
  • Collaboration (intergenerational, institutional, organizational, corporate, global, international, etc.)

¿What is your main option? Difficult, right?

Thanks, Ashoka, for your daily work.

I will be back in two weeks. Enjoy June.

Graddy, do you remember how she/he was?

A few weeks ago, the class of Primary Education 2022 of the University of Deusto (2022-2023) (no, not the ones graduating this year, but the next one), asked me to be in their graduation photo. Of course, for me, it was an honour and a pleasure to be a part of what will be a memory for them and for me.

This time, the truth is that it’s more exciting because, apart from personal matters, the photo itself is not a typical one, but an interactive one. Do you want to know more? Keep reading. (more…)

A few months ago, I saw a product on Instagram that I really liked. The first thing it reminded me of was the product and philosophy of the entrepreneurs you know I admire: kietoparao; so, as you can imagine, this post is related to the use and abuse of technologies, or it isn’t? Wait a moment, I should say that this post is related to people, communication, enjoyment and human relationships instead of technologies.
