Over the course of three days – 19, 20 and 21st of June 2019 – the conference focused on topics and challenges for the next EU Research and Innovation Programme (2021-2027) – Horizon Europe as well as on the European Innovation Council, a very powerful instrument foreseen to strongly support European “breakthrough innovators”. The event was co-organised by the European Commission, through DG CONNECT and DG RTD, together with the Romanian Presidency of the Council of the European Union. The aim was to debate about how to bridge the gap from idea to investable project, how to support breakthrough innovations and the scale-up potential with high risk for private investors. Our partner IN was there with a booth in the exhibition area to promote the innovation proposed by the FutureAgriculture approach.
