High Level workshop on Synergies between Clean Aviation Joint Undertaking and national/regional relevant R&I initiatives in aviation

This high-level workshop will present the benefits of establishing synergies between EU and regional & national programmes (including for example from the Cohesion Policy Funds/ERDF) and will outline future developments and opportunities. It will showcase key achievements and futureplans in the aviation sector from the Clean Aviation Joint Undertaking, a European public-private partnership between the European Commission through Horizon Europe and the European aeronautics industry. It implements the European Union’s leading research and innovation programme for transforming aviation towards a sustainable and climate-neutral future.

The workshop will focus on the following topics:

• General framework for establishing synergies between Horizon Europe and regional/national programmes, and expected impact.
• The CAJU’s action plan for synergies with regions: strategy and methodology to develop “synergies by design”, as well as the Memorandum of Cooperation model.
• The value of synergies: views from regions who have engaged in cooperation with CAJU.
• EU long term strategy on synergies in aviation research and innovation.
• Extending the CAJU model for synergies in aviation to other sectors.

The workshop will take place in hybrid mode on Monday 4 March 2024. It will be scheduled back-to-back with the Clean Aviation Annual Forum 2024 (CAAF24), taking place on Tuesday 5 and Wednesday 6 March 2024, which will provide an outlook to the future of the Clean Aviation programme and will showcase the achievements of the Clean Sky 2 programme.
