Building on the lessons learnt from the initial exploration, at the start of the year we launched BAGARA II (Connecting end-of-life opportunities with concrete business opportunities), a space for reflection and a pilot programme offering specialist advice. The aim is for design professionals to support companies and stakeholders in Getxo’s Cultural and Creative Industries (CCI) in conceptualising new business lines linked to the Silver Economy and end-of-life care.

The event will consist of a first part, in which the project and the process promoted by EIDE will be put into context, and a second part in which the focus will be on the five teams that have been working over the past few weeks, who will have the opportunity to present the prototypes they have developed.

The five pairs were:

• Marina Blázquez / Sonia Bouso
• Nora Inoriza (Diaradesign) / Emaku Sailing
• Leyre Julian (Alda2u) / Soil
• Laura Parralejo / Detalleres
• Pamela Infante (Weetbe) / Bentaranoa Socio-Cultural Association

The focus group consisted of: Estibaliz Legarreta, Jesús Cao, Leire García (ColaBoraBora), Aida Caso, Ivana Ruiz and Xabier Eizagirre (Alda2u).
