For the third consecutive year, AGORADA+, a key EURADA event, will align with the “Clusters Meet Regions” workshop. Co-organised with IGRETEC, the European Cluster Collaboration Platform, and the European Commission, this year’s theme is “Innovation in Life Sciences, Cleantech, and Advanced Manufacturing Ecosystems for Regional Development.”
