Innovation policy plays an increasingly important role in the context of economic security, where multilateral collaboration in research and innovation among like-minded partners brings high added value.
In this context, the lecture will also be an opportunity to learn about the EU-Japan collaboration in addressing the common objective of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, digitalizing our economies, and de-risking supply chains, which, among many other topics, will be on the agenda of the EU and Japan leaders at the 29th EU-Japan Summit, which took place in Brussels on 13 July.
Finally, Ambassador Paquet will present key tools and modalities to boost the EU-Japan collaboration in research and innovation, and in particular, the possibility of associating Japan to Horizon Europe.
