On 12 May 2015, the teams of the third generation of the Rijeka Startup Incubator presented their business plans and projects to the public at Demo Day, which they designed and developed over the course of six months with the support of mentors and experts from the business sector. Startup users are young people and teams who have knowledge and ideas in the field of information technologies, computer applications, industrial design and other professional areas.
Startup incubators are a specific form of support for Startup entrepreneurs, in the form of providing business infrastructure for project development and mentoring and advisory support, for those who are just starting a business venture or are in its early stages of development. The City of Rijeka recognized the need to establish a Startup Incubator and in 2013 the first generation of teams entered the Startup Incubator. The main goal of the Startup Incubator is to create an enabling environment for youth self-employment through the realization of their own business ideas, raising work competences for youth employability and impact on the development of entrepreneurial youth culture.
Over three generations, 122 users and 47 teams worked with 24 mentors.
Great help was also provided by the Rijeka Development Agency Porin, which, together with the users of the incubator, developed business plans.
In Bribir, on 23 April 2015, Doris Sošić held a presentation of the HINT LAB project with the aim of promoting it to various stakeholders of rural tourism, which were presidents, managers and employees of Local Action Groups (LAGs) operating in the Primorje-Gorski Kotar County. These are LAG Gorski kotar, LAG Vinodol, LAG Terra Liburna and LAG Kvarner islands. These LAGs , together with representatives of Primorje-Gorski Kotar County, the Administrative Department for Tourism, Entrepreneurship and Rural Development and the Center for Mountain Agriculture of Primorje-Gorski Kotar County and the Rijeka Development Agency Porin d.o.o. form the Coordination of LAGs of Primorje-Gorski Kotar County.
Since LAGs have significant development of tourism in rural areas, this was an opportunity to provide their members with information about the possibility of inclusion in the project through educational workshops, and for those who have good entrepreneurial ideas for rural tourism. This enables them to further cooperate with Slovenian entrepreneurs in order to network and contribute to border cooperation and exchange for the development of rural tourism.

We are proud to present the new visual identity of our agency, which includes not only a new logo design, but also a complete transformation of our website that brings aboutthe chilling and innovative elements of this very important communication channel.
The creative collective Kombinat, consisting of a group of young independent professionals whose mission is the realization of conceptual solutions, participated in the creation of the new logo RRA Porin in a creative and innovative way. By collaborating with Kombinat, we wanted to include in the creative process the creative power of young minds who are one of the fundamental elements of social and economic development.
