On 8 October 2026, the Research Executive Agency and the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Research and Innovation will bring together a cluster of Horizon Europe projects that have been piloting innovative approaches to knowledge valorisation.
CO-VALUE, as one of the projects featured at the event, will share testimonials from young researchers and innovators who have directly benefited from the project, especially how citizen engagement shaped their innovation journey and strengthened the societal relevance of their work and product and service development.
As coordinator of CO-VALUE, Stickydot will contribute to the broader discussion on lessons learned from the citizen engagement in Knowledge Valorisation, run with two intermediaries, Alicante Science Park (Spain) and ART-ER (Italy), working with startups and citizens to bring research results and innovation to market, society and policy.
The day will offer a rich mix of project presentations, policy dialogue and practical exchanges, designed to inform future EU action on knowledge valorisation.
Whether you are a researcher, policymaker, intermediary or innovation expert, this is the conversation that will help shape how Europe turns knowledge into action.
