On 1-3 June 2008, the National Office for Research and Technology of Hungary will host the 3rd Europe INNOVA Annual Partnering Event. The event will take place in the Festetics Palace of the Andrassy Gyula University, in the Hungarian capital Budapest. A second key objective will be to foster a debate on what the next generation of Europe INNOVA 'platforms' can learn from the experience of the past three years. Cross-cutting issues arising from the analytical work (Sectoral Innovation Watch, European Cluster Observatory, IMP³rove) |
will be put in the spotlight alongside the lessons learned from the more practical and operationally focused activities of the various networks.
The APE event is organised over two-days, with the second day devoted especially to a thematic workshop of the Europe INNOVA Cluster networks. Europe INNOVA has integrated national and regional cluster activities falling into 11 specific sectoral topics into European cross-border cluster networks. The thematic workshop will synthesise the benefits and lessons learnt from this approach, thus paving the way to the up-coming cluster development actions under Europe INNOVA, as well as to generic policy recommendations on cluster management. A number of side events such as innovation tours and a gala dinner will be organised on the 2nd of June.
