How to build successful business-academia cooperation?

About

logoeuraxess

We have the pleasure to invite you to our Workshop organised by Bay Zoltán Nonprofit Ltd. for Applied Research with the support of the European Commission and the EURAXESS European Network.

 

The European Commission supports building stronger linkages between business and academia through a series of initiatives.

Closer links between business and academia can:

  • encourage the transfer and sharing knowledge;

  • create long-term partnerships and opportunities;

  • drive innovation, entrepreneurship and creativity.

 

EURAXESS, a European network supporting the mobility and career development of researchers, is implementing practical solutions that work towards realising the objectives above.

The present Workshop will present these practical solutions and will initiate dialogue for their further development. The Workshop is addressing representatives of businesses - managers and recruiters- especially with strong focus on research, development and innovation, as well as head-hunters and hiring managers looking for highly qualified, high profile candidates with specialized knowledge and research, development and innovation capacity beyond the national market.

 

As part of the event, we are going to showcase success stories of mutually beneficial business-academia cooperation and we will introduce you EURAXESS services - recruitment, advertising, and partner search- designed with the aim to improve inter-sectoral mobility.
