SPANNING BOUNDARIES

Whilst, universities and industry working in close cooperation are engines of innovation, it is PEOPLE who are the most crucial factor in transferring knowledge and innovation across institutions, mobilising resources, triggering organisational change, and making a difference in their regions. More than ever, there is a need to "span boundaries" between these institutions, which is why the Erasmus+ Knowledge Alliance project "Spanning Boundaries Development Programme" was created. We aim to empower and enable university and business professionals to make a stronger contribution to regional economic and social development by providing knowledge, support and a closer engagement with each other and their environment.
