to strengthen the links between research and business
to develop cross-border strategies for the development of research and innovation
mobilize investment in the region
In addition to the existing ERA Chairs have been established:
ERA Fellowships build on the Widening Fellowships pilot project under the MSCA Fellowships.
ERA Talents will provide training and career development grants, promote postdoctoral career diversity, and raise awareness of good practice in employment and creating good working conditions for these talents.
Goals:
Institutional reforms of universities in "widening" countries
More efficient use of existing research infrastructure
Ability to attract the best researchers and thus reverse the "brain drain"
Improve permeability between sectors: academic and business (greater permeability when changing scientific careers)
*On the European Centre website, we present just some of the changes HE is bringing about that are particularly relevant to the CU. The comprehensive HE website is maintained by the Technology Centre (TC) Prague.
