Tech Collaboration
Overview and Objectives
​
Following the success of the EU funded NGI Enrichers initiative, and as part of its sustainability plan, ENRICHERS has decided to launch this new program designed for all interested deep tech innovators - from Europe and associated countries.
The Tech Collaboration program supports researchers and innovators from Europe and associated countries - with a special focus on women and on Ukrainians - to spend 3 months in the US or in Canada, to work and collaborate with US and Canadian researchers/principal investigators in research universities, to promote knowledge-sharing and establishing long-term collaborations on high/deep technologies, services, and standards.
