Thanks to the joint work carried out between the Chair and 1millionbot, “we have shown that new technologies, such as this chatbot, allow knowledge to be brought anywhere. In the end we get artists and entrepreneurs to know how to manage and disseminate their work and with it, make their passion a profession for the future”, explains the director.

For Andrés Pedreño, founder of 1millionbotToday, technology is an essential ally: “We are facing a digital and technological reality that is revolutionizing all sectors. Virtual assistants, the metaverse, artificial intelligence or the blockchain are technologies and tools that offer new opportunities, especially in the field of cultural and creative industries”.
