Definition of initial list of 179 IP assets offered to be shared by EU research organizations (briefly described, including sharing conditions, within the Consortium Agreement) offered to be used by IRP partners
Creation of IP repository (by EERA) to facilitate the exchange process, which has just started to be feed
WP2 → Alignment of National Programmes
Creation of NWGs it all countries involved (Spain, France, Italy, Portugal, Germany, UK and Cyprus), starting the interaction/dialog with governmental related authorities and financing agencies
Definition of needed preparatory material (“Concept Notes”) to advance in previous dialog
Date definition to European Workshop on the topic (representation of all previous countries and the Commission) .
