Lyon, France - 14 September 2012. COWIN, a European
initiative to facilitate the take-up of advanced technologies, is organising a
Marketplace event at this year's EPoSS Annual Forum in Paris on 26th to the 28th
September 2012. The event is designed to enable companies to meet and network
with COWIN experts to identify new business and technology opportunities.
"Whilst we are organising
one-to-one meeting for people at the Marketplace to ensure that they meet with
the best potential partners from commerce and research who are all working in
the MEMS area creating smarter solutions and novel technologies," explained
Géraldine Andrieux, COWIN's Co-ordinator.
Launched in 2010 under the
7th Framework Program, COWIN is a support action dedicated to strengthening
European competitiveness in miniaturized smart systems. The initiative is
focused on the commercial exploitation of advanced technologies developed in the
framework of European collaborative research projects. COWIN's mission is to
facilitate take-up of those advanced technologies worthy of investment, in order
to capture innovation, win new markets and make a profit.
"This EU initiative is
bringing together companies and technologies from all over Europe and building
teams that are creating truly innovative smart solutions in various application
field such as Life Sciences, IT & Telecoms, Agrofood, Environment and
Energy," added Mrs Andrieux. "These are solutions that have been funded by the
EU and that we are making ready for commercial exploitation to provide European
companies with the technologies they need to solve their problems and rapidly
deploy products to the world. Innovation is the key to Europe's economic
recovery and COWIN is enabling this to happen."
A tutorial on
"Regulation compliance as a success factor for innovative projects"
will take place on 28 September.It will be followed by a
Workshop on the Medical Devices Aspect of Micro-Nano-Bio
Systems.
