EU aims to position itself at the forefront of the new wave of deep tech innovation and start-ups, therefore the creation of regional innovation valleys (RIVs) is one of the crucial factors to achieve this goal. Under the New Innovation Agenda, it is foreseen to establish and connect network regional deep tech innovation valleys. RIVs should help to link innovation actors across all Europe and address the existing innovation performance gap between the various regions in the EU. Europe has set the ambitious goal to identify up to 100 regions committed to enhance the coordination and direction of their research and innovation investment and policies, at regional level and to collaborate on inter-regional innovation projects including in deep tech innovation, linked to the key EU priorities.
The goal of this virtual event is to provide the information about the RIVs and the call for expression of interest for RIVs and how regions can join this initiative.
