Gateway to Innovation: Exploring Funding Opportunities

Gateway to Innovation: Exploring Funding Opportunities

The objective of the workshop is to provide a unique platform for international funding agencies to present their current strategies and plans aimed at promoting research and development through cross-border collaboration.

This event is designed to open doors for researchers, academics, and entrepreneurs by giving them access to vital information about funding opportunities, business attraction requirements, and networking with potential collaborators and financiers.

The intention is not only to highlight the available paths to financial support but also to encourage the exchange of ideas and the formation of strategic partnerships that drive innovation and progress in various scientific and technological fields.
