🌍 Thrilled to announce the COOPERATE Workshop on "Open Innovation Ecosystems and Policy" as part of WOIC 2024 in Berkeley, California! We are excited to invite you to our interactive COOPERATE Workshop on Open Innovation Ecosystems and Policy, engaging innovation researchers, practitioners, and policymakers. Our objective? To dive into how ERA Hubs play an important role by offering concrete tools to propel ecosystems towards transformative growth. ERA Hubs provide a range of services to accelerate knowledge valorisation and improve interregional collaboration. Being part of WOIC 2024 gives us a unique opportunity to gain critical perspectives from the U.S. innovation landscape, offering valuable insights for EU-focused research and innovation initiatives. We look forward to engaging with WOIC participants, discussing challenges, and co-creating strategies that inspire impactful change across borders.

At conferences, I prioritize creating a space for people to express their thoughts and ideas openly. It's vital to hear diverse perspectives on critical topics, although the time is short, it gives me insight into the lens of my audience. #CollaborativeLearning #Innovation #Conferences

After attending the INMA Media Innovation Week in Helsinki , I was reminded not only of the value of face-to-face connections but also of something just as important—the in-between moments. Networking isn’t about simply meeting someone every 3-6 months; it’s about what happens between those meetings. Every touchpoint, no matter how small, plays a role in nurturing and strengthening relationships. It’s this consistent engagement that truly reinforces the value of our network. In the video below, I share insights into how building lasting, meaningful connections goes beyond just the conference meet-ups. It’s about staying actively involved, supporting one another, and making each interaction count. #ProfessionalConnections #NetworkingMatters #BusinessRelationships #StrategicNetworking #EngageAndGrow #IndustryInsights #ConferenceTakeaways #BuildingConnections #NurtureYourNetwork PerformanceLabs.AI

"Thrilled to have successfully attended the International E-Conference, where minds from around the globe converged to innovate and collaborate. As Helen Keller famously said, 'Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.' Grateful for the enriching discussions and connections made. Looking forward to applying insights gained for future endeavors! #GlobalCollaboration #Innovation #Networking"

While I truly enjoy attending conferences nationwide, I often find myself questioning the real return on investment. With the high costs and the overwhelming amount of information packed into each session, I wonder: What’s the true value of these “meetings of the minds”? Are we truly gaining actionable insights, or is the experience more about exposure than impact? Curious to hear others’ thoughts on how they maximize their conference takeaways. #ConferenceROI #ProfessionalDevelopment #Networking
