The new year got off to a tremendous with ASTP’s NAAC meeting with the European Commission’s Joint Research Council (JRC). Organised to coincide with the Commission’s Horizon Europe planning, the meeting was a significant opportunity for the EC to hear from the knowledge transfer community of all member states.
During the meeting, a NAAC Working Group presented three recommendations to the European Commission:
- The introduction of a dedicated work package (WP) to address the impact of Horizon Europe projects and take care of the knowledge transfer, including translation into the innovation phase towards society and the market
- To ensure the involvement of Knowledge Transfer Offices (KTOs) in the project to lead this WP
- The assignment of additional budget for this work package
