Personalised meetings will take place during the afternoon in order to provide delegates with the opportunity to initiate scientific, technological and business collaboration.
ALIMEDA partners will participate in the event through a presentation of European research programs for SMEs. Scheduled appointments will also be organised for companies willing to obtain further information on ALIMEDA and to study the possibilities to build a European Co-operative Research Action (CRAFT).
