Future involvement of industrial partners

The Action will focus on meeting industry needs (e.g. through interviews of industrial partners by the MC’s in each country)

The MC will encourage the national delegates toThe MC will encourage the national delegates to - engage industry in each country, - find out who is doing what,

i th i i d t f h t i i- raise the awareness in industry of what is going

Invitations of industrialists to workshops and conferences will be fosteredfostered

Industry will be advised by developments in the COST Action e.g. by organizing “focused” industrial seminars

Aim: to get greater industrial collaboration based on the findings and recommendations throughout the life of the COST Action
