With the help of the Ministry of Labor and Social Economy, the project “Promotion of Digital Transformation in the Social Economy (Promo-TIC-social)”, is aimed at the Promotion of Digital Transformation and the Modernization of a Group of 11 Cooperatives through joint technological and formative intercooperation, as a way to face ICT developments that exceed the individual capacity of each of them and to address the digitization of management areas and processes that have been “orphaned” as a result of the absence of critical mass or the isolation of these cooperatives.

The “Promo-TIC-social” Project has a relevant social and collaborative profile, as can be seen from the following purposes and characteristics of the Project:

• Cooperation and Intercooperation between the Companies participating in the Project.
• Digital transformation, we intend to establish a collaborative and joint route towards a reality with cooperative businesses, processes and jobs imbricated with digitalization.
• Addressing areas of management and processes that have been “orphaned” as a result of the lack of approach to their digitization. The “Promo-TIC-social” Project proposes in this area:
  • The aggregation of purchasing capacity so that Cooperatives are competitive in purchasing activities in the global market.
  • To this end, it will promote, among other concepts, the shared experimentation of the ICT applications foreseen in the Project, so that they are shared and, in some specific cases, they can be developed jointly.
  • Sharing of learning, training and dissemination of the best practices of the ICT applications envisaged in the Project, both between:
    • The Cooperatives participating in the Association.
    • Cooperatives that intend to implement similar applications.
    • Sharing of information and knowledge with other entities of the Social Economy.
