REPORT ON THE COMMON BROKERAGE EVENT (BRUSSELS, 15-16 OCT 2009)

OVERVIEW

The AENEAS & CATRENE Common Brokerage Event, held on 15-16 October 2009 in Brussels, brought together the main actors of the European Nanoelectronics Community to facilitate exchanges in order to generate ideas for proposals and to start consortia preparation.

135 participants joined the event from research institutes, SMEs and large companies all across Europe. Several associated organisations as well as PAs also showed their support and interest by being present. All together, approximately 65 project initiatives were identified and elaborated on.

During the event, it was announced that the common AENEAS / CATRENE brokerage event (Common Brokerage Event, CBE) would be followed by an Expression of Interest (EoI) phase in preparation for the upcoming 2010 CATRENE and ENIAC calls. The EoI phase is expected to provide a preview of potential proposals for 2010 in terms of subjects and efforts.

For more information on the EoI phase, please click here.

The agenda of the Common Brokerage Event was based on the  2010 draft ENIAC Multi-Annual Strategic plan as well as the CATRENE White Book and covered all subjects that could be submitted to each of these programmes.  To familiarise yourself with both of these documents & programmes, please see the documents available for download below.
