Swiss Horizon 2020 lauch event - Idiap’s research success under FP7 highlighted
Horizon 2020, the new European Framework Programme for Research and Innovation, was officially launched in Switzerland last week during a 4-day conference (January 14-17) at the Stade de Suisse in Berne. Organized by Euresearch - the Swiss National Contact Point for EU-funded research -, the event offered the possibility to get to know the political objectives and strategies of H2020 and discover the funding opportunities provided. Furthermore, practical workshops on how to answer a call for proposals with a strong application were given.
The program management team of Idiap was invited to present the research and management activities of the institute at their own booth. Idiap’s outstanding research success under the former programme framework called FP7 (2007-2013) was highlighted during the inaugural day of the event.
