INSPIRING ERA online event: Turning knowledge into value: European tools and valorisation practices
Wednesday 11 March, 10:00-12:00 CET

This online event examines how research can be translated into real-world impact, drawing on concrete examples and success stories from across Europe. It presents different pathways to knowledge valorisation and highlights European-level tools and support structures to help researchers and institutions put valorisation into practice.

The ERA Policy Agenda 2025–2027 emphasises the importance of establishing monitoring and evaluation frameworks as a cornerstone for advancing gender equality and inclusiveness in research and innovation (R&I), including monitoring of Gender Equality Plans (GEPs), the integration of the gender dimension in R&I content, the development of intersectionality indicators, and gender equality expenditure tracking. Such frameworks will enable the identification of areas for improvement, the monitoring of progress, and inform evidence-based policymaking.

Annually the Swedish Research Council organises an Ethics Arena on issues related to ethics in research. This year the topic is Responsible Internationalisation of Research.  The event is in Stockholm. 

The conference brings together industry leaders, policy makers and stakeholders from the innovation ecosystem from across Europe to shape the future of Research and Technology Infrastructures and launch the new European strategy in this field. The summit will provide key input for the implementation of the strategy and demonstrate how the infrastructures impact society and drive innovation, science and industry forward. 

The integration of the gender dimension is increasingly required in research funding and evaluation – yet implementation varies widely. Many researchers and research professionals across Europe face challenges in understanding what it means in practice and how to apply it effectively, particularly from an intersectional perspective.

The Conference is organized as a contribution of the Government of the Republic of Slovenia to the ERA Policy Agenda Action 2: Propose an EU copyright and data legislative and regulatory framework in cooperation with the Knowledge Rights 21 programme.
