ECO-Innovation in the Maritime sector – A conference and exhibition of international projects in support of SMEs
It is our pleasure to invite you to the conference on the ECO-Innovation in the Maritime sector that will take place on the 20th of June 2022, at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture of the University of Zagreb, in the Great Hall of the Faculty. The conference is organized within the ECO-NautiNET PLUS project, together with the project partners and in collaboration with other Interreg ADRION, Interreg MED, and projects financed from other funding sources (Norway Grants).
The ECO-NautiNET Project aims to improve SMEs’ competitiveness and innovation capacity in the maritime sector and related sectors (materials, maintenance, fuel, catering, etc.) in the wider Adriatic – Ionian region.
The desired improvement will result from the synergies of the SMEs, between them and with research institutions. The development of a business support network with innovative features, training as well as mediation, and networking between enterprises will facilitate the specific innovation transfer and will increase the competitiveness of its members. In the ECO-NautiNET PLUS project, which represents an extension of the successful ECO-NautiNET project, the goal is to further enlarge the network and use of ECO-NautiNET platform.
