Great event Susana Garayoa. Thanks!!! Excellent speakers and many ideas to build the best FP10. It is the beginning, I agree, we have to continue promoting the importante of having the most relevante R&I programme possible.
I believe the recent news from the USA's new policy framework and the AI sector revolution underscore the need for the EU to strengthen industrial participation in FP10. It's crucial to not only revise Pillar II but also to redefine many IA topics to better emphasize Europe's industrial significance in the expected outcomes.
Interesting event!
