Since eight years ago when the initiative was first held, the RomeCup, although it only is a three-day event, actually spreads out over the remaining 362! It continues in schools, universities, research centres, laboratories, etc. and obviously also on-line with all the material that was collected and produced during the event. As a matter of fact, we can say that it continues phyrtually: every year, new physical and virtual space merge (LEIS, Innovation Gym, Orientation Portal, etc.).
