This virtual matchmaking event will begin with an overview of the research and innovation ecosystems of the participating countries and the calls for collaboration. Then, participants will be invited to join virtual breakout rooms where selected participants will be invited to provide a 3-minute pitch of their work and projects. After the event, all registrants will receive a copy of the presentation slides, pitch decks and a list of registrations.

 

If you would like to pitch, please indicate your interest, expertise and alignment with the calls in the registration form. The organizing team will review the registrations and invite a select number of participants to deliver a pitch.
