FEATURED GUESTS From open science to open innovation: How to get more jobs and growth from EU science investments Brussels 24 February 2015 Partners Hosted by From open science to open innovation 1 How to get more jobs and growth from EU science investments From open science to open innovation How to get more jobs and growth from EU science investments Brussels - 24 February 2015 Agenda The EU and its member-states as well as its associated countries invest heavily in big Research Infrastructures like particle accelerators, synchrotrons, telescopes and scientific databases. What does it get for that investment, besides great science? A growing number of lab administrators, economists and policy makers think it can also get more jobs, spin-out companies and economic growth. Through new initiatives, it should be possible to deepen and strengthen European markets for technology services and products spun out from these scientific installations. This Science|Business conference will highlight the new economic thinking in the field, and stimulate a policy debate about how to encourage projects that can help – particularly in light of President Juncker’s new investment plan. 16:00 Welcome Atle Leikvoll, Norwegian Ambassador to the EU Richard L.
