Eureka meets Asia 2000

Agência de Inovação, S.A. is joining forces with members of the European Eureka initiative and the authorities of China and Macau, to organise the second 'Eureka meets Asia' conference in Macau from 23 to 27 May 2000.

The event will mainly focus on 'Technologies for sustainable development' and will include an international technology exhibition and brokerage event, and an international conference and seminars on the various programmes and initiatives promoting scientific and technological cooperation between Europe and Asia.

This is the second event of its kind, which follows the signing of a Joint Declaration by the Portuguese and Chinese Ministers for Science and Technology at the 'Eureka meets Asia' conference in 1998. The agreement called for a Eureka-Asia international technologies cooperation meeting to take place in Macau every two years.

The first forum drew a crowd of 1200 participants from Asia and Europe, and gave a crucial boost to cooperation among European and Asian companies and R&D institutes. The second event, say the organisers, should be equally fruitful.
