“During the fair, we were present at the stand of the Puglia Region, to promote the “Mare a Sinistra” strategy. An initiative which aims to encourage counter-exodus and aims not only to attract talent at an international level, but also to keep the its best energies, valorising them, guaranteeing the Apulians in the world, who want to return, all the opportunities to do so”.

“I return home enriched by relationships and new ideas, I believe that these moments are an incredible accelerator and we are making ourselves more and more known by always believing in our municipality and expanding our network. On stage we wanted to share the importance of community radio in a such an important context. The response from the intrigued public was incredible”, comments Andrea Bari.
“With the Valesio Community Hub project we are building a community space where tradition and identity of our territory can coexist, with technological and innovative visions”, explained Raffaele Manca.
“It was exciting to be able to promote our countries in an event on innovation and technology, and collect many ideas, feedback and contaminations for sustainable development of the territory. Participating in the ‘Mare aleft’ initiative allowed us to highlight the potential of our territory and our local development initiatives. We are thrilled to have participated in this important event and to have represented the Puglia Region and our respective projects, INext and Valesio Community Hub, in such a prestigious context”.
