Activities
Main EU Legislative Proposals: Representing 18 Universities of Applied Sciences from the Netherlands, the office is based in Brussels. One of the most important developments is Horizon Europe, and then specifically pillar 2 & 3. Next to that, we closely follow the developments around the Interreg program, specifically component 5, concerning regional innovation projects. Regarding the EP, the main working group of our interest will be CULT for education, and the working groups covering Horizon Europe.
In general the office will focus on the role of Applied Research in Europe, and all activities will be evolving around that topic. We for example responded to the consultation round for Horizon Europe, future objectives for research and innovation.
