Background
The platform's main objective is to facilitate the creation of an investment pipeline of bankable projects in new growth areas across the EU by providing regional actors with advice and guidance in establishing links with business and research communities located in other European regions.
This Kick-off Event of the Smart Specialization Platform on Agri-Food is co-organized by the European Commission's S3 Platform and the Government of Tuscany. The workshop will take place on 6-7 December 2016 in Florence (Italy). Regional and national authorities as well as regional actors (including clusters, businesses, academia, cities, etc.) will get together to discuss joint investment opportunities in specific thematic areas.
The event is open to all committed regions – those that have already expressed interest and those that would like to move forward. A number of new partnerships formally joining this thematic platform as members will present their proposed initiatives.
Deadline: 6 December 2016
