The SMEs go Health Team organized a Partnering Day for HEALTH in the Seventh Framework Programme on October 7th 2009 in Vienna
This event aimed at bringing together researchers from industry and academia from all over Europe in one place. During pre-arranged face-to-face meetings, participants could initiate cooperation in European research projects in the Health area of FP7.
In the morning session, the participants listened to the presentations on European Initiatives for support - SMEs go Health and SM-BIOPower and an especially fruitful panel discussion on benefits and challenges for partner searches.
The afternoon session was reserved for pre-arranged bilateral meetings, where the participants had the opportunity to meet in person. The basis for the meeting schedule was an online catalogue, where each participating organisation submits in advance its competence profile and its cooperation interest. The goal of these meetings was to initiate cooperation in European research projects in the Health area of FP7.
The event was a real success: around 110 delegates from 22 different countries attended the event and participated in more than 100 bilateral meetings.
