Research institutes and centres in PCUV, along with some companies located in the park are collaborating in this initiative. New this year, the school of engineering – ETSE –, next to Parc Científic, is taking part as well.

The facilities of Parc Científic were open to the public, and the researchers showed them, as well as the way to do some experiments in a playful way.
