Description
The Argentinian +Colonia project plans to build 'the largest innovation centre in Latin America', on the outskirts of Colonia del Sacramento, one of Uruguay's main tourist attractions. The idea is to build a city, next to the beach, to create an urban knowledge hub made of different districts according to the companies and their sectors of knowledge. "We are working on a biotech district, an agtech district, a fintech district, a gaming district...", explains project partner Eduardo Bastitta. The project aims to attract young people from all over the world, as well as young Argentinians and Uruguayans who want "to return to the region". IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
