Rural Boost
Revitalization of rural areas through entrepreneurship and diversification of products or services provided
The Rural Boost project brings together entities from the 3 countries of the SUDOE area (Portugal, Spain, France) with different typologies, namely: an entity of the scientific and technological development system (COFAC/ ULusófona), Regional Public Authorities (Municipality of El Hoyo de Pinares and Bétera), 4 civil society organizations (Corane, AGAVI, Accent Sud, CEEI burgos) and an SME with innovative potential (Activhandi).
RuralBoost aims to respond to common challenges related to the demographic, territorial and natural characteristics of the SUDOE area, such as the need for social and territorial cohesion (depopulation of rural areas), and to promote intelligence and competitiveness, bringing together universities and companies.
The main objective of RuralBoost is to revitalize rural areas through entrepreneurship and diversification of the products or services offered.
