The ‘Call for Actions to support uptakes of Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe projects’ outcomes’ event took place on March 15 online.

The objective of this online event was to address the issue of dissemination and exploitation of EU-funded research and innovation projects in the transport sector which has always been important, though not all project outcomes have been exploited and, eventually, expected societal impacts may not be delivered.

The online session was joined by 64 attendees and followed the agenda shared below:
