HELICE PARTICIPATES IN THE 7FP PROJECT: "BEWARE"
BEWARE: BRIDGING EAST WEST for AEROSPACE RESEARCH
The Helice Foundation is one of the 12 European Clusters participating in the drafting of the proposal submitted and coordinated by INVENTS BALTICS (ESTONIA) in relation to the EC CALL on Cooperation late last year: AAT2013-7-4 on the topic “Creating cohesive links and common knowledge between potential partners in EU Framework Programme Collaborative Projects “.
Helice is the only Spanish cluster within the initiative together with partners from: UK, FRANCE, GERMANY, ITALY, CZECH REP., LITHUANIA, POLAND, SLOVAKIA and ROMANIA.
The Foundation took part in this initiative as one of the outcomes of the 2012-2013 Internationalization Plan, that in turn, was supported by the Dpt. For SMEs of the Ministry of Industry, in its line for supporting “Innovative Entrepreneurial Clusters”.
The BEWARE project has set a mission to increase the participation of the aeronautical organisations in Framework Programme which are not yet involved at the level of the size of their respective aeronautics sector. Thru the organization of workshops and factory or research center tours the strategy is “ to put in direct contact potential coordinators and potential partners in future projects in the field of Aeronautics and Air Transport, which are established in regions that lack of mutual knowledge”.
