We are pleased to announce this years PLATFORM Annual Event which takes place in the European Green Capital of 2016 - Ljubljana, Slovenia.

The theme of this event is ‘The bigger picture: ERA-NETs for Inclusiveness and Innovation’. We will learn about inclusiveness issues faced by ERA-NET networks and those countries which have difficulty to participate or actively contribute to the consortium, experiencing difficulties also with joint transnational call participation and/or successful funding of projects. Aiming big as the theme suggests, we will not only interactively look at ways to include, motivate and inspire the less active countries through different inclusiveness mechanisms, but also look at the other side of the TRL scale, discussing topics of the role ERA-NETs have in stimulating innovation and learning about other instruments that complement the ERA-NETs in their goals and go further in bridging the gap between research and innovation.
