Conference on research, innovation and economic performance

To mark the launch of the Oxford Handbook of Innovation, the European Commission, the University of Oslo and Oxford University Press are jointly organising a conference entitled 'Research, innovation and economic performance - what do we know and where are we heading?', to take place on 8 October in Brussels, Belgium.

The handbook is the result of the TEARI (towards a European Area for research and innovation) project, funded by the Commission to synthesise and valorise projects carried out within its socio-economic research initiatives.

The conference aims to gather researchers from Europe and the US together with policy makers and other stakeholders to discuss emerging themes of research in innovation and economic performance, as well as relevant policies.To register, please contact:
