This year’s edition of the annual event organised by the NOP Research and Innovation 2014-2020 will take place online on 22 and 23 February 2022, in conjunction with the University Business Forum and in collaboration with the European Commission. The event, titled, “University-Business collaboration in a time of recovery and resilience”, will last two days and will present some of the projects funded by the NOP Research and Innovation among the good practices of university-business cooperation.
This two-day event will open with a morning full of speeches by representatives of the European Commission, the Italian Ministry of University and Research, the Conference of Italian University Rectors and the Union for the Mediterranean, followed by a plenary session dedicated to success stories resulting from the cooperation between university and business.
In the afternoon, 6 thematic workshops, each lasting one and a half hours, will be held in parallel over three sessions covering topical issues, including digital and green transformation.
The second day will go through the results of the workshops with short presentations made by PhD students holding scholarships funded by the NOP Research and Innovation.
