<p><strong>Project exhibition - &#39;Highlights of the ITEA impact&#39;</strong><br />
For many years, ITEA projects have resulted in cutting-edge innovations that have impact on society and economy. This year, we will highlight the impact of running and recently finished ITEA projects at the project exhibition on 10 September, from 13:00 - 15:30 hrs. The exhibition will be open to all ITEA PO Days 2024 participants. Join us to learn more about the projects&#39; latest innovations!</p>

<p><strong>NEW ELEMENTS: (Newcomers) workshop and B2B session</strong><br />
After the exhibition, we have organised a (newcomers) workshop and B2B session on 10 September, from 16:30 - 18:00 hrs. During the workshop we will explain how to shape your PO, give a demo of the PO submission tool, and share insights in the financial and legal aspects of an ITEA project. Experienced project leaders will also share their Tips and Tricks.</p>

<p>In parallel there will be B2B sessions, during which you can already get in touch with possible future project partners and briefly explain your project idea or expertise. A fully integrated tool has been developed to help you find the right contacts!</p>

To facilitate this, we have set up a 1-hour Online ITEA PO Days Preparation session on Thursday 27 June 2024, 13:00 - 14:00 CEST to explain what you can expect from the ITEA PO Days and provide information on the (new) online brokerage tools for ITEA Call 2024.
