STRESS TEST OF INNOVATION POLICY IN EUROPE

Are you ready for the big STRESS TEST of Innovation Policy in Europe? And are you ready for stress testing your own SME programmes, cluster programme or national innovation system – and yourself?

Don’t forget to register now at the Europe INNOVA 2012 conference in Copenhagen, Denmark, on 23-24 October 2012.

There is a limited number of seats – so don’t miss your opportunity. You will join 500 policy makers, programme owners and innovation policy experts from all over the world.

What is the conference about?
What happened to the two hundred thousand projects that have obtained support in Europe during the past decade? Europe INNOVA 2012 will pursue some of the celebrated success stories in European Innovation:

• What made the success happen? Was it just good luck - or is there a lesson to be learned?
• What programmes supported the success? Did the programme make a difference - or did the success happen in spite of the programme and the policy maker?
• And what happened after the award show? Can we still find any footprints of the project?

Representatives from enterprises and innovation projects, programme owners from SME programmes, R&D-collaboration programmes and cluster programmes, policy makers and evaluators will be interviewed on stage.

And a panel of experts will jump in at any time if the discussion is not on track!

Interactive Innovation Gallery and stress test laboratories
At the conference we will have a large Innovation Gallery and stress test laboratories where you can test your own programmes and policies. A set of new “self-assessment tools” will be available and demonstrated. You will have the possibility to test your own SMV programmes, cluster programmes, innovation system etc. You can also learn more about stress testing cluster organisations. Read more on the conference web site.

Here you can also see THE TEN CONFERENCE DOGMA RULES that are your guarantee for a different and new experience on the Europe INNOVA Conference 2012.
