🌐✨ Last week, representatives of the Nanoprogress cluster organization had a full calendar of inspiring meetings during the European Cluster Conference in Brussels. Our goal was not only to showcase the sustainability of clusters but also to forge new partnerships and acquire key contacts for future projects.

Our journey began with a presentation by Mr. Luboš Komárek, the cluster chairman, who spoke at an event intended for consortia under the Euroclusters call, where Nanoprogress collaborates as a partner in the INGENIOUS project. This event provided us with a platform to discuss current trends such as green and digital transformation and sustainability building.

During the main conference, we couldn't miss the opportunity to engage with the chairman of the National Cluster Association, Mr. Jiří Herinek, and other significant figures in the field, including representatives from the Agency for Business and Innovation (API). Meetings and discussions with representatives from DG GROW and EISMEA allowed us to gain valuable insights and perspectives for future collaboration.

After the conference, Nanoprogress cluster representatives remained in Brussels for important discussions within the INGENIOUS consortium, addressing further steps and challenges awaiting the consortium in the coming months.

A week filled with enriching discussions, networking, and inspiring lectures was an invaluable experience for the Nanoprogress cluster and our representatives. We are thrilled to have been part of this event and look forward to further collaboration and new challenges in the future!
