Annual Congress of the Netherlands Study Centre and courses on European technology subsidies
Both Dutch and English authorities attach great importance to innovation as a means for European industry to be competitive with Japanese and American counterparts. In order to promote innovation, national and European authorities are supporting RTD activities by funding subsidy schemes.
This year's Congress aims to give a clear and topical overview for 1994 of the most important RTD support programmes at national and European levels. Topics include: New fiscal facilities for RTD; subsidy regulations; training and financial support (the European Social Funds); investment in environment; EU support for RTD (presented by Mr. Rapparini, of DG XIII/D-2 of the European Commission); EU technology encouragement; the fields of application and the budget for EU support.
Two-day courses on European technology stimulation and incentives are also organized for 20 and 27 January and 16 and 23 September 1994. These discuss the RTD Framework Programmes, other EU programmes, and how to apply for funding. Practical examples are given.
