Facilities for open innovation and upscaling do exist in the European Union and programmes at European, national and regional level have supported their development for many years. Federating all relevant infrastructures for upscaling innovation, including those in industry premises, is a crucial challenge for EU industry. Based on descriptions from speakers of the main systems currently at EU level, these sessions will look at ways to integrate them in a real ecosystem.
