The Lighthouses of Innovation gathered in Poitiers to discuss past and future activities of the network.

On June 11th, representatives from the Lighthouses of Innovation met in Poitiers. The Lighthouses of Innovation are a network of innovation stakeholders such as university units, businesses, technology and knowledge transfer organisations, as well as research and innovation projects and initiatives. The objective of the Lighthouses of Innovation network is to bring together stakeholders from EC2U cities to enable knowledge exchange and collaborative innovation.

On the occasion of the closing event of the RI4C2 project, the Lighthouses of Innovation were invited to gather in Poitiers to hold their last meeting before the end of the project. The meeting was hosted by Neoloji Technopole Grand Poitiers, at one of their shared workspace called H.Tag.
