It was a question of providing participants with knowledge to help them better understand the opportunities offered by ICTs on the one hand, and on the other hand, to offer young start-ups a chance to present their know-how and benefit from at the same time, advice on the maturation of their projects, as well as establishing win-win partnerships with other structures. An opportunity that needed to be taken advantage of in order to reinforce the already acquired capacities in the field of ICT.
