After a brief presentation of the organization and its science and technology park, a discussion was held on the role of international cooperation in local development, with contributions from Luca Mercatelli of the Institutional Relations Office and Mark Barrett from GIZ Skopje.<\/p>\n<p>The morning continued with presentations of best practices for innovation in rural contexts: from technology transfer at ICGEB to IoT solutions for agriculture by Primo Principio, through automation and sensors with Elimos, water management with Idrostudi, and aquaponics research with Shoreline.<\/p>\n<p>In the afternoon, attention shifted to local development in peri-urban and cross-border areas, with contributions from CEI, BRDN, and the experiences of the Local Action Groups of the Karst and Brkini areas.
