Description
The European Commission organised the workshop “Strengthening technology infrastructures for advanced technologies”.
The policy seminar was part of a series of 8 policy seminars organised within the Advanced Technologies for Industry (ATI) project commissioned by EISMEA and European Commission - DG GROW. The project provides a systematic monitoring of technological trends and reliable, up-to-date data on advanced technologies to properly support the implementation of policies and initiatives and finally promote a competitive European industry.
The seminar introduced the Advanced Technologies for Industry project and presented the insights obtained in the workshop “Moving from technology-based networks to value chain-based networks: how to improve the effectiveness of cross-border networks of ATI technology centres?” and the workshops on developing cross-border networks of ATI technology centres in the field of IoT precision farming, low carbon industrial processes and Smart health. During the seminar, a series of recommendations was presented for action to improve SMEs´ access across Europe to ATI Technology Centres and recommendations to improve or create cross-border networks of ATI Technology Centres.
