R&D active and on the move in Brussels!

 
The Contract for Economy and Employment (in 2005) and the Regional Plan for Innovation (in 2006) are at the root of the Brussels-Capital Region's ambitions in terms of research and technological innovation:

• Strengthen scientific centres of excellence and stimulate activity in three leading edge economic sectors: information & communication technologies, life sciences and the environment.

• Develop a platform for all research stakeholders: businesses, investors, organisations, researchers ... whether from Brussels, Belgium or abroad.

• Encourage scientific study amongst young people in order to renew the pool of researchers in the future.

To achieve these multiple ambitions faster, the Brussels-Capital Region created Research in Brussels in 2008.
