Connecta Now Solutions Information

It all started as a small initiative during lockdown, a free local platform to help small businesses that were forced to shut down during lockdown and had limited exposure to the internet. This free business directory was a platform where any local business could register, so that their customers could find their contact details and get in touch. It worked during the lockdown period with over 200 businesses registered in a matter of 3 weeks, yet we didn't have a business model. But luckily we entered the Ceuta Open Futre startup acceleration program shortly after. It was just what we needed. After plenty of research we found that people are often unaware of everything they can do nearby, specially when it comes to small towns or rural areas. We identified a need for local platforms that help digitalise all the different local events and activities that are offered. We now partner with local institutions, associations and small businesses in order to register and include all the events and activities the town offers in one single platform and mobile app. Creating a main platform for all the activities will help interaction with existing and potential visitors and improve everyone's overall experience. LivingCeuta is our first platform.
