SITGRAN, the island\u2019s public-private tourism data partnership), water management (Aquagran), automated fire alerts control (Alertagran), virtual powerplants management tools via IA, <a href=\"https:\/\/iatmarinomaritima.com\/\">smart ports<\/a>, etc.&nbsp; The island has consistently evolved to improve the efficiency of public services by means of increased digitalization at various levels, thanks to the \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/www.spegc.org\/gran-canaria-isla-inteligente\/\">Gran Canaria Inteligente<\/a>\u2019 initiative. This public collection of projects, financed by Cabildo de Gran Canaria, comprises more than 20 projects and eur 20 million of investment that has already been exhausted or is currently at the planning or tendering stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>\u2019Best in Gran Canaria\u2019 team, which had a unique corner in the business &amp; exhibition area, surrounded by other 15 global companies, held more than 30 meetings with participants and companies.<\/strong> The latter showed great interest in the potential digital testing &amp; scaling up options on the island, given that Gran Canaria represents a sizeable market (850,000 inhabitants and 4.5 million tourists per year) with a reasonable talent pool (eg. 6,200 students are currently enrolled in STEM studies). As a matter of fact, the island offers, on top of low taxation and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spegc.org\/2021\/06\/02\/prestamos-participativos-instrumento-financiacion\/https:\/www.spegc.org\/2021\/06\/02\/prestamos-participativos-instrumento-financiacion\/\">dedicated funding for smart solutions<\/a>, a cost-controlled sandbox to develop, test &amp; deliver digital solutions that can be sold to the world from the operating facilities on the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More than 120 speakers participated in the congress and in the complementary events. They shared their expertise with the audiences, a total of 375 digital agents and members of the <em>FIWARE<\/em> ecosystem, including companies, public administrations, professionals, developers and end-users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The event consisted on business conferences, presentation of case studies and training and <em>plug sessions, <\/em>which are some of the activities that were included in the industrial connection and networking sessions of the Global Fiware Summit 2022. <em>Fiware Global Summit <\/em>also served as a driving force for other related initiatives linked to the use of open source.
