The conference reflects on a decade of engagement with Europe’s research and innovation agenda and looks ahead to the next phase and its priorities and opportunities. It focuses on knowledge-based solutions to global challenges, with attention to emerging technologies, the energy transition, climate, and fairness. Cross-cutting themes include dual-use issues and relations with the Global South.

The conference will also reflect on funding instruments and their capacity to support the pathways discussed, in the context of the ongoing design of FP10 and the European Competitiveness Fund.

Registrations are expected to open after the summer.
