EU Programmes for New Member States: A practical insight to opportunities for participation

The objective of the event is to provide a concise yet useful overview of EU research, technological development and innovation (RTDI) programmes, and share practical knowledge and experience regarding participation in these programmes.

The event will take place as a 45-minute forum (10:00 - 10:45, 8 May) within the framework of the Research Connection 2009 conference organised by the European Commission in Prague on 7-8 May 2009.

The event will provide the participants with practical information on participation in the EU Structural Funds, CIP and FP7 projects. Special attention will be devoted to synergies between these programmes and differences in their implementation. A panel of programme participants will share their experiences gained from participation in EU RTDI programmes.For furhter information:
