SwitchMed is an initiative that supports and connects stakeholders to scale-up social and eco innovations in the Mediterranean. I work as the team leader of the SwitchMed Networking Facility. Please refer to our website (http://www.switchmed.eu/en) for further information about the activities. The Network comes together every year at the SwitchMed Connect. In 2016, it is taking place on the 19th and 20th of October in Barcelona (http://switchmedconnect.com/en/)
