The Advanced Technologies for Industry (ATI) project is organising a policy seminar on 6 May 2021 to share insights on “Scaling up in Advanced Technologies”.  

 

Registrations are open here

 

There are several challenges at European level that prevent tech-based start-ups of fully developing their potential, affecting their business impact and scaling opportunities. In this context, it is important that European organisations act to increase the strategic capacity of these companies. This webinar will provide tips and tricks about these challenges, delivering an overview of the existing policy strategies and measures at EU level, as well as national and regional levels. During the session, additional gaps in knowledge and policy needs will be also tackled.  

 

The “Scaling up in Advanced Technologies” policy seminar will aim to: 

  • Present the ATI analysis on tech scale-ups and specific demand-side policy measures. 
  • Identify challenges not yet sufficiently addressed and point out at policy gaps. 
  • Develop recommendations on how to improve the framework conditions for European scale-ups active in the field of advanced technologies.
