We are glad to announce the EURIZON Closing Event in Brussels. During the project duration, the consortium has initiated and implemented numerous measures to support Ukrainian scientists. The EURIZON project has also focused on expanding and supporting scientific-technical cooperation between Ukrainian and European large-scale research infrastructures (RI).

The EURIZON Closing Event will  present a few highlights of these support measures, and it will specifically look ahead: What did we learn from our experience, and which are the most relevant recommendations for the future support of scientists, and science in Ukraine.  

The Closing event brings together stakeholders from European and Ukrainian RIs and academia, and from policy and innovation, both from within the EURIZON consortium as well as external experts.

We cordially invite you to join in person on 28th March 2025 in Brussels. We are looking forward to meeting you, and to sharing and discussing the outcomes of the EURIZON project.
