The European Commission is organising a virtual seminar titled "Empowering R&I collaboration to respond to the socio-economic challenges of the coronavirus pandemic" on 14 October 2021, 13.30 CEST
This event will help strengthen global collaboration in research and innovation and tackle the socio-economic challenges caused by the coronavirus pandemic. It is not possible to find solutions to the coronavirus pandemic by working only within one project or one country or even one continent. Participants, including R&I projects, organizations and individual researchers, engaged in COVID-19 related research, will therefore be invited to network and engage in a discussion around collaboration channels as well as barriers to collaboration.
They will also learn about the Coronavirus Global R&I Collaboration Portal and how it supports collaboration to address the socio-economic aspects of the Coronavirus pandemic.
Speakers will share valuable insights on the EU’s R&I response to the Coronavirus pandemic, calls and funded projects along with available tools and new initiatives.
