Event Description

COST will be a partner of the fourth European Innovation Summit to be held at the European Parliament in Brussels under the motto 'Building bridges – Creating Synergies'. 

 

This year’s debates relate to policies relevant for innovation that are currently under review by the European Parliament, including Horizon2020, Cohesion Policy, COSME and the MFF.
 
The summit features an opening reception with Máire Geoghegan-Quinn, European Commissioner for Research, Innovation and Science, several thematic sessions throughout two days, breakfasts, lunches and dinner debates, as well as an exhibition.
 
In addition, the 'Innovative Europe Reality Check' provides an opportunity for innovation practitioners to describe online their major challenges and express ideas on how to improve the framework conditions for innovation.
