Focus

The Science and Innovation Policy Talks (SIP Talks) focus on new developments and relevant topics in the field of financing, organisation and management of science, research and innovation. The series provides a forum for discussing current projects, topics and research findings with national and international experts and for engaging in dialogue with FORWIT. The seminar series enables emerging topics to be better anticipated and assessed, the national and international information network to be expanded, and potential for cooperation to be identified.

The knowledge gained is incorporated into FORWIT’s advisory activities and makes an important contribution to the development of new science and innovation strategies. The seminar series is also a tool for the Council to implement its mandate for national, European and international cooperation with relevant stakeholders. This project aims to establish the seminar series and to schedule and hold around 15 events in the 2025 calendar year.

Objectives

Establish the new seminar series for the systematic and regular exchange of current findings and developments in the field of science, research and innovation policy; schedule around 20 events; build expertise in the office and anticipate new topics.
