Matchmaking Event by ENLIGHT RISE project (29 Apr 2024 – apply by 15 April)

On 29 April 29, ENLIGHT RISE offers a virtual Matchmaking Event to bring together researchers and R&I support office people from all ten ENLIGHT partner universities.

The focus will be on matchmaking tools available to ENLIGHT researchers and pitching sessions for setting up research collaborations. If you are looking for partners to establish an ENLIGHT Thematic Network or submit a joint funding proposal, come pitch your idea to your fellow ENLIGHT researchers.

Pitches should be up to 5 minutes, followed by 5 minutes of questions from the audience. Interested researchers can register through the matchmaking platform, look for other researchers who are working within their focus area and set up meetings for the live event.

If you are interested in pitching at the event, please inform your institutional contact by 15 April 2024 and inform them of your interest by indicating which session you would like to pitch at and provide pitch slides by 22 April 2024.
