EURADA, in partnership with our member IGRETEC, the European Cluster Collaboration Platform and the European Commission, jointly organise "AGORADA+ discusses innovation in life sciences, cleantech and advanced manufacturing ecosystems for regional development". AGORADA+ is held in the framework of the initiative Clusters meet Regions which aims to explore how regional development agencies, clusters and other actors could foster stronger collaboration in the implementation of regional and national economic development policies. The specific aim of the event is to foster wider uptake and development of life sciences, cleantech, and advanced manufacturing in Belgium. This EURADA event will show you how Charleroi Metropole is managing to improve and transform its economy, with the help of regional and European funds (total of +/- 500 millions €) its industrial strategy. And especially, to showcase the key role of the clusters and the related ecosystem actors to improve the competitiveness of companies and thus the territory.
Please be aware that an EURADA General Assembly will be also organised in the framework of AGORADA+ on Thursday 28 November.
