The Strategic Agenda is a dynamic document designed to adapt and evolve over time. While the main strategic themes have been set up as a consistent guide in the years to come, the associated insights, challenges, opportunity and priorities will be regularly reviewed and updated, ensuring that they remain relevant and capable of impacting the ongoing discussions in the research and innovation ecosystem.
This agenda is the result of a community driven collaborative work, developed through a series of workshops and activities with members, projects and other stakeholders.
