RRI&NGAGE: Embedding RRI for smart and climate resilient European regions

Launched at the European Innovation Council (EIC) Summit on 3 June, the EU Innovation Platform is the new single access point supporting researchers in turning research into real-world impact. Developed by the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Research and Innovation, it is designed to support innovators and startups across Europe while also allowing them to meet the right partners, and connect with relevant services, events, and opportunities.

Ensuring that research results move beyond the lab remains a key challenge for many EU-funded projects. That is why Booster mentors and supports EU-funded project researchers by providing them with the competencies and tools for them to create real-world solutions and generate impact. Through a hands-on and co-creative process, Booster experts provide tailored advice and tools, while ensuring that beneficiaries remain at the heart of the journey.

The recent Booster Info Session offered a comprehensive overview of the services available to EU-funded projects, how and why to apply and featured a testimony by an EU-funded project benefitting from the services. For those who attended (and those who couldn’t), here are eight key takeaways we've selected from the event.

Booster was recently featured in the 2025 edition of the Projects to Policy Seminar, one of the European Commission’s Directorate General HOME’s flagship events, held earlier this month, offering a valuable opportunity for EU-funded projects to learn more about the tailored and free-of-charge support services that Booster offers.
