Week of Innovative Regions in Europe 2024

The WIRE conference serves as the main European policy forum dedicated to innovation and regional development. This event will bring together key players from the innovation and education ecosystems to enhance science-based competitiveness. The conference will focus on knowledge-driven regional development and propose ways to optimize resource allocation for this purpose.

The WIRE conference is the leading European forum for innovation and regional development, uniting key players from the fields of innovation and education to enhance science-based competitiveness.

The conference is organized by the National Research, Development and Innovation Office as an official partner event of the Hungarian presidency of the Council of the European Union. The conference is supported by the European Commission.

This year’s theme aligns with the Hungarian presidency's priorities and is vital for the EU's future competitiveness. The event will analyze current challenges, share best practices, and discuss initiatives like the Smart Specialization concept, Interregional Innovation Investments (I3) Instrument, Partnerships for Regional Innovation, and Regional Innovation Valleys.

Speakers will assess the effectiveness of these tools and highlight synergies between European and regional funding schemes.
