Desde los Laboratorios de Innovaci\u00f3n DIA de The Trust for the Americas, tenemos como objetivo inspirar a los j\u00f3venes para que trabajen en la creaci\u00f3n de soluciones innovadoras que aborden problem\u00e1ticas sociales, econ\u00f3micas y ambientales en sus comunidades. Es por eso que, a trav\u00e9s del DIA Lab RD<\/a>, implementado por nuestro socio local ADASEC<\/a> and with the financial support of Citi Foundation<\/a>, capacitamos a j\u00f3venes de entre 14 y 35 a\u00f1os en habilidades para la era digital y el futuro del trabajo. Adem\u00e1s, les brindamos la oportunidad de participar en experiencias de incubaci\u00f3n de proyectos, recibir financiamiento y mentor\u00edas, y acceder al equipo tecnol\u00f3gico de los laboratorios. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recientemente, del 10 al 24 de julio, llevamos a cabo el \\”Ideat\u00f3n virtual de Innovaci\u00f3n y Emprendimiento\\”<\/strong>, un evento en el que cientos de j\u00f3venes de diferentes comunidades del pa\u00eds recibieron mentor\u00eda y acompa\u00f1amiento por parte de expertos locales e internacionales de alto nivel. Durante estas dos semanas, los participantes tuvieron la oportunidad de ampliar sus conocimientos en seis ejes tem\u00e1ticos fundamentales: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Innovaci\u00f3n como estrategia para emprendimientos de alto impacto:<\/strong> Enfocamos la innovaci\u00f3n como una herramienta esencial para el crecimiento y la competitividad de las micros, peque\u00f1as y medianas empresas en Rep\u00fablica Dominicana. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Desarrollando emprendimientos de subsistencia:<\/strong> Abordamos la importancia de modelos de negocios inclusivos que generen beneficios sociales, econ\u00f3micos y ambientales, buscando soluciones sostenibles que beneficien a las comunidades m\u00e1s vulnerables y combatan la pobreza. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      1. Educaci\u00f3n y cultura para el emprendimiento:<\/strong> Reconocemos que el emprendimiento es m\u00e1s que crear un negocio, es un fen\u00f3meno cultural que busca generar bienestar en la sociedad. Por eso, nos centramos en mostrar las estrategias educativas de emprendimiento que se est\u00e1n implementando en el pa\u00eds. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        1. El Gobierno, la innovaci\u00f3n y el emprendimiento social:<\/strong> Destacamos la importancia de la colaboraci\u00f3n multisectorial para el desarrollo de emprendimientos innovadores y exitosos. Exploramos c\u00f3mo el Gobierno puede apoyar ideas brillantes que buscan soluciones sociales y mejorar la vida de las comunidades. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          1. Emprendimientos de base tecnol\u00f3gica y el uso de TIC:<\/strong> Reconocemos el poder de la tecnolog\u00eda para la innovaci\u00f3n y el emprendimiento. Sin embargo, tambi\u00e9n somos conscientes de los desaf\u00edos relacionados con la brecha tecnol\u00f3gica y el acceso a financiamiento para emprendimientos tecnol\u00f3gicos en la Rep\u00fablica Dominicana. Buscamos proporcionar respuestas y pautas para dinamizar este tipo de proyectos. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
              \n
            1. Comunidades de impacto:<\/strong> Abordamos el concepto de comunidades resilientes que promueven el emprendimiento y la creaci\u00f3n de peque\u00f1as y medianas empresas para impulsar una econom\u00eda m\u00e1s sostenible. Analizamos estrategias para que las comunidades dominicanas se conviertan en ciudades emprendedoras, mejorando la calidad de vida de sus habitantes. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

              Como resultado de estas dos semanas tan productivas, se formar\u00e1n 20 equipos de proyecto, cada uno integrado por no m\u00e1s de cinco personas, quienes, bas\u00e1ndose en lo aprendido, deber\u00e1n crear emprendimientos innovadores que aborden problemas locales. Posteriormente, en la Innovative Projects Pitch Competition<\/strong>, que se llevar\u00e1 a cabo en la ciudad de La Vega Real el pr\u00f3ximo 18 de agosto de 2023, los equipos presentar\u00e1n sus proyectos ante un jurado de expertos con la esperanza de recibir fondos semilla para hacer realidad sus ideas.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              At the DIA Innovation Labs of The Trust for the Americas, our goal is to inspire young people to work on creating innovative solutions that address social, economic, and environmental challenges in their communities.

In addition, we provide them with the opportunity to participate in project incubation experiences, receive funding and mentoring, and access the labs\u201d technological equipment.\u00a0 Recently, from July 10 to 24, we held the \u201dVirtual Innovation and Entrepreneurship Ideathon,\u201d an event in which hundreds of young people from different communities across the country received mentoring and guidance from high-level local and international experts. During these two weeks, participants had the opportunity to expand their knowledge in six key thematic areas: As a result of these two highly productive weeks, 20 project teams will be formed, each consisting of no more than five people, who\u2014based on what they have learned\u2014will create innovative ventures to address local problems. Subsequently, at the Innovative Projects Pitch Competition, to be held in the city of La Vega Real on August 18, 2023, the teams will present their projects to a jury of experts in the hope of receiving seed funding to bring their ideas to life.\u00a0 DIA Lab RD, through its virtual Innovation and Entrepreneurship Ideathon, seeks to empower Dominican youth by providing them with the necessary tools to become agents of change and develop innovative solutions that have a positive impact on their communities and the country as a whole.
