Strait Up Tarifa

MAKEA Project at Kajaani University of Applied Science, chose us and Tarifa as hosts of their Benchmarking activities.

Tarifa is full of international entrepreneural talent and the professionals from Finland were impressed with the examples of creative non formal support that operate in the area.

Our network with northern universities is very strong. We benefit through comparison of parallel contexts at the edges of Europe. But southern sun inspires our northern colleagues to try new solutions.

We provide project management, networking, logistical support, and sunshine. They bring best practices from the resource rich Nordic education system. Win win.

Special thanks to the many entrepreneurs in Tarifa who shared their time with us.
