Network for Research and Technological Innovation: Objectives

Encourage collaboration between public research and

industry,

On research topics of mutual concern,

Undertaken on an as needed basis, responding to economic

and societal needs,

Identifying technological problems, and

Involving SME, SMI whenever possible.

Network for Research and Technological Innovation: RITMER

Subject: “Accidental marine pollution events and ecological consequences” 2001/04/19, Minister of Research

Objectives : increase the capacity of response technologies through multi-partner projects (research/industrial user, organisations implicated in management of the crisis, professional organisations,…)

Features: the goal of RITMER projects is to create tools, systems, procedures and methods useful in the management of accidental marine pollution events.
