Please note that the registration deadline is<BR>> October 11 and this event is on a 1st come, 1st served basis!<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> Please check the conference website for more information:<BR>> http://www.embl.de/conferences/TTC09<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> The seven intergovernmental organisations (CERN, EFDA, EMBL, ESA, ESO, ESRF,<BR>> ILL) involved in EIROforum have extensive expertise in the areas of basic<BR>> research and the management <BR>> of large, international infrastructures, facilities and research programmes.<BR>> <BR>> With the support of the European Commission (FP7-ERARESORG-2007-RTD),<BR>> EIROforum we are organising a two-day conference to present and discuss<BR>> their approaches to Technology <BR>> Transfer and show how these activities contribute to the development of the<BR>> European Research Area. Intellectual property, technology and knowledge<BR>> transfer are an integral part of the <BR>> R&D activities and missions of the EIROforum organisations.<BR>> <BR>> The programme of the conference is tailored to provide a platform for the<BR>> delegates to explore new approaches for managing a successful and more<BR>> effective research marketing and <BR>> technology transfer by exchange of good practices, new ideas and sharing of<BR>> experience. The meeting will be organised as an open discussion forum that<BR>> will hopefully indicate new <BR>> avenues for successful translation of research into economically viable<BR>> benefits that will boost the economy for Europe and benefit its citizens. <BR>> <BR>> The meeting will be a unique opportunity to bring together representatives<BR>> of European advanced science and technology infrastructures, European<BR>> politicians, representatives of the <BR>> European industry, representatives of the national governments of the<BR>> European Union, representatives of the European Investment Bank, the<BR>> European Patent Office, representatives of <BR>> the institutions of the European Community and other research communities.<BR>> <BR>> EIROforum is convinced that this conference bringing together the major<BR>> European stakeholders will address issues that are essential for the<BR>> progress of the European Research Area, as <BR>> indicated in the 2007 Green Paper and in the recent Commission Communication<BR>> on management of Intellectual in knowledge transfer activities (April 2008).<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> Please circulate this announcement to interested members and groups within<BR>> your institute.<BR>> <BR>> Kind regards<BR>> <BR>> Gwen Sanderson<BR>> <BR>> Conference Officer<BR>> <BR>> European Molecular Biology Laboratory<BR>> Meyerhofstr. 1<BR>> D-69117 Heidelberg<BR>> <BR>> Tel: +49-6221-387 8835<BR>> Fax: +49-6221-387 8158<BR>> Email: gwen.sanderson@embl.de<BR>> <BR>> For full event listings please visit our website: www.embl.org/events or<BR>> sign up for our newsletter www.embl.de/events/newsletter<BR>> <BR>> If you do not want to receive any announcements from EMBL please reply with<BR>> "unsubscribe" as subject.<BR>> <BR>> *<BR>> *<BR>> ==========================================================<BR>> OSLIST@LISTSERV.BOISESTATE.EDU<BR>> ------------------------------<BR>> To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options,<BR>> view the archives of oslist@listserv.boisestate.edu:<BR>> http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html<BR>> <BR>> To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs:<BR>> http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist<BR> <br /><hr />Lauren found her dream laptop. <a href='http://www.microsoft.com/windows/choosepc/?ocid=ftp_val_wl_290' target='_new'>Find the PC that’s right for you.</a></body>
