FLAG-ERA Graphene Networking Event – Barcelona, October 27, 14h – 18h

Le 27 octobre 2014, le réseau ERA-Net ‘FLAG-ERA’ organise un évènement de réseautage pour des proposants à l’appel conjoint transnational de FLAG-ERA en synergie avec le Graphene Flagship.  L’évènement se déroulera de 14h00 à 18h00 pendant la Conférence TNT à Barcelone http://www.tntconf.org/2014/FLAG_ERA.php?conf=14

• Objectifs: To  give information about the FLAG-ERA Joint Transnational Call  (JTC) in synergy with the Graphene Flagship to potential applicants,  and to allow for networking, exchanges of ideas and consortium building.

• Public cible:  Researchers, scientists working in the field of graphene, both from outside and inside the Graphene Flagship Core Project.

• Programme: The event is organized in three different modules : (the full programme can be viewed here:  http://www.flag-era.eu/node/108)
• a presentation from FLAG-ERA about the JTC and a presentation from the Graphene Flagship
• a session of flash presentations (4 min, 2 slides max) where researchers present their ideas for participating in JTC and identify the partner expertise they are looking for;
• area for posters (for the people presenting the flash presentation), where stakeholders can discuss their ideas in a relaxed environment.

• Enregistrement: Interested researchers can participate in the event, which is free of charge (you do not have to be registered for the TNT Conference). To register for the event: http://www.tntconf.org/2014/registrationFE.php?conf=14

• Contexte:

FLAG-ERA is a FP7 ERA-NET that gathers most regional and national funding organisations (NRFOs) in Europe with the goal of supporting the Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) Flagship concept and more specifically, the FET Flagship initiatives Graphene and Human Brain Project (HBP).  FLAG-ERA has planned to launch a joint transnational call (JTC) enabling researchers from different countries to propose joint contributions to the Flagships. In order to encourage and facilitate the participation in the JTC, FLAG-ERA organises networking events for stakeholders from basic and applied research and innovation.
The FLAG-ERA Graphene Networking Event intents to bring together stakeholders in the area of graphene, taking advantage of the presence of a considerable group of researchers, industry and the Graphene Flagship representatives in the TNT conference.
