Research to Reality

Digital Solutions to European Challenges

5-6 February 2024 - Brussels, Belgium

The Research to Reality conference is a remarkable event that promises to shape the future of digitalization in Europe. It is organised under the Belgian presidency in cooperation with the European Commission.

The event will address critical questions:

  • How can Europe’s research on digital technologies help to achieve the ambitions of its Digital Decade and of the twin transition?
  • How does Europe gain strategic leadership in key digital technologies, with real benefits for its citizens and businesses?
  • What are the challenges for creating a well-streamlined European digital funding and investment landscape, and how to overcome them?

The first day features keynotes, interactive breakout sessions and workshops aimed at creating mutual synergies between digital research in Horizon Europe and actions in the Digital Europe Programme. Inspired by current achievements and by your needs, insights and experience, we will craft concrete recommendations and actions for better aligning these major European digital funding and investment programs.

The second day will host a number of workshops of relevance to the Horizon Europe and Digital Europe programmes on evaluation, partnerships and cascade funding organised by Ideal-ist.

The event will be accompanied by a Face2Face networking event, which will offer an exceptional occasion to build quality partnerships and strengthen synergies, as it will connect academia, research institutes, industrial stakeholders, SMEs and government actors from all over Europe who plan to respond to the calls for proposals. The event is free of charge but registration is required.
