SPACE FOR
OPEN
INNOVATION
SofIA is an open innovation space dedicated exclusively to Artificial Intelligence. It aims to bring together solutions from startups focused on AI with the needs of companies from different sectors such as banking, pharma, insurance and distribution.
The University of Navarra, through DATAI, high school of Big Data and Artificial Intelligence, and Innovation Factory, promotes SOFIA with the goal to promote the transfer of scientific knowledge to society. An initiative that goes hand in hand with startups that offer an innovative product or service, whose technology can transform the value chain of companies to make them more competitive.
