Transcript of Innovation Week Agenda
The R2I programme (Research to Innovation), launched by the European Commission in 2012, has resulted in several projects, currently working in the sustainable development of the Mediterranean Region.
Most of them have decided to join forces together and with other Mediterranean initiatives in order to organize a
powerful event on innovation. Including workshops, trainings, roundtables and a brokerage event, it should attract the focus on the great innovation potential of the Region.
Here we present the agenda of the Innovation Week and hope for your participation and support in such necessary and
promising initiative.
Le programme R2I (Recherche et innovation) lancé en 2012 par la Commission européenne a donné lieu à plusieurs
projets qui travaillent en ce moment sur le développement durable de la Région méditerranéenne.
La plupart de ces projets se sont regroupés pour s’unir à d’autres initiatives méditerranéennes afin d’organiser un important événement sur l’innovation. Par le biais d’ateliers (workshops), de formations et de table-rondes, ainsi qu’une
rencontre de partenariat, cet événement veut souligner l’important potentiel d’innovation de la Région.
Nous vous présentons ici le programme de la Semaine de l’innovation et nous espérons pouvoir compter sur votre participation et sur votre support d’une telle initiative, autant nécessaire que prometteuse.
