Companies, organizations, and public sector actors are encouraged to present their best practices, practical innovations, and development projects connected to the themes of the conference.
As a part of the program we will also organize a matchmaking session to boost research, development and innovation cooperation between universities, industry and public actors. The matchmaking session will allow participants to present new project ideas and find partners.
