The GALACTICA team, led by AEI Tèxtils, organized the info-day for the first call for proposals with presentations about the GALACTICA project, the call details, the submission procedure and the evaluation information. This info-day session also included a question-and-answer session moderated by the project coordinator (AEI Tèxtils) and the participation of the call leaders (CTA and CORALLIA).
The session also included the pitch from the company category winner of GALACTICA’s 1st hackathon, FUREHO, as success story in the cross-sectoral collaboration and innovation.
The session was followed by more than 69 participants from several European countries.
The recording of the event is available here.
In parallel to the info-day, GALACTICA also organized its first matchmaking session, where SMEs were able to find potential partners to apply together in the call for proposals, find technologies and meet potential technology providers. This is a relevant opportunity for SMEs to jointly promote innovative solutions thus creating new cross-sectoral and cross-border industrial value chains.
More than 146 participants are already registered and 112 B2B meeting have already take place.
This virtual matchmaking platform will remain open for the duration of GALACTICA as the virtual community platform. B2B meetings and networking opportunities aims to promote the awareness raising of the different GALACTICA sectors needs and to generate cross sectoral and cross-border collaborations among participants.
