CLIENTES POTENCIALES
Desde el Departamento de Internacional de la Cámara de Linares y con la financiación de FEDER, se ha organizado la Visita a feria “IMTS” (Chicago) para pymes y autónomos de la provincia de Jaén.
La actuación tendrá lugar del 7 al 15 de septiembre de 2024.
La tecnología en las empresas se ha convertido en unos de los pilares, no solo para mejorar la eficiencia de los procesos internos, sino para abrir oportunidades de futuro. La incorporación de la tecnología en las empresas permite mejorar la productividad, competitividad, innovación y bienestar de los empleados, entre otros muchos factores.
Sin embargo, la innovación en los procesos de trabajo presenta muchos retos, y la adaptación no siempre es fácil, por lo que la cultura de la empresa debe encajar con esta transformación y evolucionar hacia otras formas de trabajo y rutinas.
El objetivo final de esta acción es aumentar el conocimiento de las empresas participantes respecto a las novedades tecnológicas, y establecer contactos con proveedores y/o clientes potenciales.
