How can the European Union build up its innovation ecosystem to reach net zero?
What are the key priorities for climate-related research in the short and medium terms? How can EU funding support and leverage the success of green tech incubators, entrepreneurs and international cooperation? These are some of the questions that were discussed at the Science|Business Green Deal & Climate days event, which was held in Brussels on September 18-19 and supported by ATTRACT.
The ATTRACT project was presented at the TIPP 2023
During the last edition of the 6th Technology and Instrumentation in Particle Physics (TIPP 2023), the ATTRACT project was presented by Pablo García Tello who shared some of the lessons learnt during the two phases of this project that could prove insightful for understanding the process of managing R&D&I Innovation Ecosystems.
ATTRACT showroom: meet the funded projects
The ATTRACT Showroom, a virtual platform which contains the most relevant information about each of the funded projects during phase 2, has just been launched. The showroom will serve as the central hub for all 36 funded projects: the 18 R&D&I projects in which researchers will have to consider how to advance the proofs-of-concept from phase 1 into something that is far closer to a marketable product and that generates new business for citizens.
ATTRACT unveils the projects that will benefit from its €28 million fund for innovation
ATTRACT, a research and innovation project funded by the European Union and backed by a consortium of nine partners, including CERN, will commit €28 million to finance 36 projects from more than 20 countries
ATTRACT is a European funded project whose goal is to develop next-gen scientific tools, co-create new business and market products, increase European companies’ competitiveness, and trigger more and better jobs for Europeans. (Image: ATTRACT)
The ATTRACT initiative was presented at the Big Science Business Forum 2022
ATTRACT phase 2 was presented at the Big Science Business Forum 2022 (BSBF 2022), hosted by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities and the Spanish Innovation Agency. And Pablo García Tello, ATTRACT Project Administrative Office, explained this initiative during the session “Career Opportunities and Pathways in the Big Science Market”.
Cinzia Da Via: “An ecosystem like ATTRACT is essential for Europe”
ATTRACT Q&A
ATTRACT offers an opportunity to study the construction of an innovation ecosystem. In this regard, Cinzia Da Vià, ATTRACT R&D&I committee Co-chair and Professor of Physics at the University of Manchester, reflects on how the environments involved in that ecosystem are the basics for the economy.
How to leverage scientific advances in your company
The World Wide Web, touchscreens and radiotherapy are just three of the revolutionary technologies that were discovered in research labs, without clear commercial applications at first.
