> The seven intergovernmental organisations (CERN, EFDA, EMBL, ESA, ESO, ESRF,
> ILL) involved in EIROforum have extensive expertise in the areas of basic
> research and the management 
> of large, international infrastructures, facilities and research programmes.
> 
> With the support of the European Commission (FP7-ERARESORG-2007-RTD),
> EIROforum we are organising a two-day conference to present and discuss
> their approaches to Technology 
> Transfer and show how these activities contribute to the development of the
> European Research Area. Intellectual property, technology and knowledge
> transfer are an integral part of the 
> R&D activities and missions of the EIROforum organisations.
> 
> The programme of the conference is tailored to provide a platform for the
> delegates to explore new approaches for managing a successful and more
> effective research marketing and 
> technology transfer by exchange of good practices, new ideas and sharing of
> experience. The meeting will be organised as an open discussion forum that
> will hopefully indicate new 
> avenues for successful translation of research into economically viable
> benefits that will boost the economy for Europe and benefit its citizens. 
> 
> The meeting will be a unique opportunity to bring together representatives
> of European advanced science and technology infrastructures, European
> politicians, representatives of the 
> European industry, representatives of the national governments of the
> European Union, representatives of the European Investment Bank, the
> European Patent Office, representatives of 
> the institutions of the European Community and other research communities.
> 
> EIROforum is convinced that this conference bringing together the major
> European stakeholders will address issues that are essential for the
> progress of the European Research Area, as 
> indicated in the 2007 Green Paper and in the recent Commission Communication
> on management of Intellectual in knowledge transfer activities (April 2008).
> 
> 
> 
> 
> Please circulate this announcement to interested members and groups within
> your institute.
