During the last edition of the 6th Technology and Instrumentation in Particle Physics (TIPP 2023), the ATTRACT project was presented by Pablo García Tello who shared some of the lessons learnt during the two phases of this project that could prove insightful for understanding the process of managing R&D&I Innovation Ecosystems.
Fabiola Gianotti, Director General of CERN, together with John Elkann, CEO of Exor, and other jury members, awarded the winners of the 2023 edition of Innovation 4 Change, an educational programme developed by the Collège des Ingénieurs (CDI) & CERN's innovation space, IdeaSquare.
The ATTRACT Showroom, a virtual platform which contains the most relevant information about each of the funded projects during phase 2, has just been launched.
ATTRACT, a research and innovation project funded by the European Union and backed by a consortium of nine partners, including CERN, will commit €28 million to finance 36 projects from more than 20 countries
ATTRACT is a European funded project whose goal is to develop next-gen scientific tools, co-create new business and market products, increase European companies’ competitiveness, and trigger more and better jobs for Europeans. (Image: ATTRACT)
ATTRACT phase 2 was presented at the Big Science Business Forum 2022 (BSBF 2022), hosted by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities and the Spanish Innovation Agency. And Pablo García Tello, ATTRACT Project Administrative Office, explained this initiative during the session “Career Opportunities and Pathways in the Big Science Market”.
ATTRACT offers an opportunity to study the construction of an innovation ecosystem. In this regard, Cinzia Da Vià, ATTRACT R&D&I committee Co-chair and Professor of Physics at the University of Manchester, reflects on how the environments involved in that ecosystem are the basics for the economy.
