Public authorities鈥� support for knowledge transfer
The Brussels Capital Region, the Walloon Region and the European Union, through its European Social Fund, have introduced several initiatives to encourage research development and enhance their economic benefits. Examples include mandates for a 鈥榯echnology adviser鈥�, an 鈥榚xpert technology developer鈥� and an 鈥榚xpert human and social sciences developer鈥�; the 鈥楩irst Spin-Off鈥� and 鈥楲aunch鈥� programmes; and patent and maturation funds.
Another example is a project called 鈥楳IRVAL+鈥� (from the French 鈥�MIse en R茅seau pour PLUS de VALorisation, or 鈥楴etworking to Enhance Research Development鈥�), which was launched as part of the European Structural Fund鈥檚 2014-20 Framework Programme. MIRVAL+鈥檚 first priority is to fuel 鈥榚nterprise and creativity鈥� by raising awareness of and supporting innovation and creativity, and through training, networking and additional support.
This six-year project (2015-20), carried out in partnership with EasyNove network operators, is an important funding programme for the Knowledge Transfer Offices (KTOs) of universities and secondary schools of the French Community of Belgium. MIRVAL+ aims to increase the impact of applied research on business innovation and enhance knowledge transfer to civil society.
