The European Commission’s Directorate-General Research & Innovation (DG R&I) organises this event which is part of the awareness raising campaign on knowledge valorisation co-organised by the European Commission with EU Member States. The campaign aims to inform the research and innovation actors about the recent Council Recommendation on the Guiding principles for knowledge valorisation and the Commission Recommendations on the Code of practice on the management of intellectual assets and the Code of practice on standardisation.

The various sessions at the conference will facilitate exchange of views and open discussion concerning the most successful practices to be translated in the R&I environment. Practical insights from the projects will be shared enabling collaborative networking opportunities.
