The event aims to explore different ways innovation might look in a small nation – especially the more peripheral bits of it, to get a feel from those who arealready practicing innovators, to investigate and explore how innovators are managing to do it – what drives them and how they are supported.
The Festival is an event as part of the Ireland Wales Interreg project Inventorium. It is being supported by Pontio – whose physical manifestation – an arts and innovation centre being built in the centre of Bangor. Both Inventorium andPontio are premised on the idea that innovation is not a solitary activity – it requires conversation and multiple perspectives.
