Eureka Global Innovation Summit
May 18, 2021 - May 20, 2021
Eureka Global Innovation Summit, May 18-20, 2021. Eureka is the worlds biggest public network for international cooperation in R&D and innovation present in over 45 countries. Canada is a partner country, and Canadian organisations participating in international R&D projects are eligible for funding through Eureka’s Network projects, Globalstars, Eurostars and Clusters programmes.
As you may know the National Research Council is Canada’s National Office for the international Eureka network. They will be leading Canada’s participation at this year’s Eureka Global Innovation Summit. They are coordinating with our Embassy in Vienna on a specific Canada session.
This free virtual event is a great opportunity for Canadian businesses, researchers, and innovation agencies to share knowledge, network, collaborate, and build relationships that could open the door to new opportunities for co-innovation with partners in Europe and beyond. I have just checked the registration, and there are very few participants from Alberta, which is disappointing as this is a great forum to identify potential partners for R&D collaborations, including efforts to advance commercialisation with industrial partners.
