BIT InstituteThe BIT Institute - Balearic Islands Institute of Remote Data Transfer Innovation - was set up in 1994 by the Government of the Balearic Islands in order to achieve knowledge and use of remote data transfer in all sectors on the Balearic Islands. At the time, the BIT Institute was a pioneering experiment in Spain. It developed innovative projects like COCO (a European project in the health sphere bringing together various international experiments assessing the benefits to hospital management and primary care centres of using EDI); ENCATA (promotion of the use of data transfer between regional SMEs, needs analysis and creation of plans for its implementation and development); MINTOUR (public service made up of a network of multimedia tourist information servers); HECTOR (European project aimed at improving co-ordination between emergency health services), and TAMCRA (initiative using data transfer technology to provide SMEs with new formulas for distributing sales information about their products and services to customers).
