News archive - [Event Announcement] Contribution of Research and Technology Development (RTD) to developing sustainable knowledge-based economies in Central and South East Europe
The Conference will contribute to a better understanding of the role of Research and Technology Organisations (RTOs) in the development of sustainable knowledge-based economies in Central and South East Europe in line with the EU Lisbon Strategy, and focussing especially on the challenge of strengthening the links between science and industry. The event takes place in Dubrovnik, Croatia, on May 22-23, 2009.
The Conference will give - based on the input of a wide range of stakeholders - an overview of experience in research and development cooperation between research institutions and industry in Central and South East Europe. Particular attention will be given to successful initiatives and show cases to be presented by the representatives of Joanneum Research (Austria), Jozef Stefan Institute (Slovenia), and Rudjer Boskovic Institute (Croatia).
The insights and personal encounters of the conference will feed into improved S&T strategies and governance structures on regional, national and organizational levels, and will enhance regional cooperation among Central and South East European countries together with EU Member States and relevant international organisations such as RCC, EIT, COST etc..
