For the fourth time, the conference invites researchers and entrepreneurs from North Rhine-Westphalia and partner regions in Europe to find new European R&D partners for FP7 projects. The series of events has been a great success with over 750 participants since 2009. In 2012, partner regions are: Belgium, France, the Netherlands, Poland, Switzerland and Russia. The networking event will be structured in parallel brokerage sessions focussing on five topics: * Information and Communication Technologies * Energy * Nanotechnology and Production Technologies * Life Science * People (focus on ITN/ IAPP) The event addresses especially small and medium-sized enterprises and universities. Participants are invited to become involved in established and new technology networks between researchers, entrepreneurs and multipliers related to FP7. Giving a short presentation or finding a partner by talking to decision-makers opens doors for new FP7 projects. Call for presentations is open until 17 February 2012! www.frp.nrw.de/network Event Management ZENIT GmbH Dr. Bernd Janson Tel.: 0208-3000422 E-Mail: bj(at)zenit.de
