Overview
Enterprise Europe Network at Invest NI, in partnership with the Northern Ireland Contact Point (NICP) for Engineering, invites you to attend a Horizon 2020 networking event for ICT, Advanced Materials and Manufacturing.
Horizon 2020 is the European Union’s Research and Innovation Programme, with the 2018-2020 work programme representing a budget of around €30billion.
