Get prepared for the upcoming FP7-ICT Call on Smart Systems with EPoSS and COWIN

A COWIN Webinar will take place on 13 September 2012.

The latest FP7-ICT call launched on 10 July 2012 includes a strong focus on Smart Systems and in particular on uptake and integration of technologies. This call, with deadline for submission of proposals on 15 January 2013, represents a big challenge but also offers a great opportunity to set up new market-driven projects with relevant business case.

COWIN supports the creation of value for advanced technologies requiring further development steps before being able to access their market. COWIN is therefore committed to provide you with the best practices to prepare a successful project for the coming FP7-ICT Call on Smart Systems.
