Friends of Europe Café Crossfire Lunch Debate on 28th March at 12.30

Compared to the US, Europe is much slower to turn its educational and scientific achievements into wealth-creating ongoing innovation. How can we ensure that we improve the relationship between education, research and innovation? What sort of EU policies could help tackle the problem of inadequate innovation and the difficulties in turning R&D results into commercial opportunities and jobs? What role can be played by the ICT sector in the development and exploitation of cutting-edge knowledge and research to enhance research and management skills? How new initiatives like the proposed European Institute of Technology play a role?Detailed info can be found at http://www.friendsofeurope.org/index.asp?http://www.friendsofeurope.org/conferences.asp?frame=yes~bas(opens in new window)
