Dear CHORUS colleagues
We are happy to invite you to the upcoming C2Lab, organized by the European Cluster Collaboration Platform in collaboration with Clusters of Sweden. It is a physical event and will take place in Lund, Sweden, on 21-22 March 2023.
Sweden is one of Europe’s most innovative countries, and we invite you strengthen your interregional collaboration by taking part in this interactive workshop to turn your project ideas into practice.
How does the C2Lab work?
The C2Lab is an interactive workshop that aims to build the business case of your project idea. At the event, the participants will join together in working groups that are guided by facilitators.
You will meet new people, discuss synergies and opportunities, present your ideas, and define actions to achieve your goals. You will also speak about different funding options to make your idea a reality.
This C2Lab takes place in the context of Sweden’s Innovation Ecosystem Summit, an in-person event that expects more than 500 participants.
At the beginning of the event, you are invited to a “tech safari” to companies and technology parks in Lund. That way, you learn more about the Swedish innovation ecosystem (please see draft agenda attached).
Who can come to the C2Lab?
Cluster organisations, companies, research organisations, actors from the civil society, and other interested entities.
Cluster organisations are warmly invited bring their company members who are interested in new collaboration opportunities.
What do I need to take part in the C2Lab?
It is open to everyone who seeks new collaborations. It is best to come with a concrete idea for which you are looking for partners, competences, and opportunities.
The main topics of this C2Lab are energy transition and circular economy. However, there is also an “open strand” for your individual topic.
How do I register?
Please register under this link: Registration C2Lab
In the best case, you already have a project idea that you would like to further develop. Then, please indicate in the registration form:
What is your idea?
What challenges would you like to address?
What partners are you looking for?
What would be a suitable funding for your project?
But you can also register without a concrete idea.
In addition, you are invited to join the C2Lab Discussion Group on LinkedIn to present yourself and make new connections.
