5 Targeting 5 pre-selected S&T areas…. Health and quality of life, Food, agriculture, biotech, ICT Sustainable development and environment Energy

6 Task 4.2 – Sub regional dialogues…. Under CIRAD- CNPq co-leadership, Taking the validated findings to the sub-regional level: Meso-america, Andean and Mercosur, –Basic input is the v3 bi-regional analysis from the T4.1 In each of the 3 subregions an Electronic Discussion Forum between sub-regional TT specialists together with European TT experts, –Profile and possible candidates for the moderator consultant –Candidates TT specialists sollicited from the member countries –Developing specific guidelines for the Forum procedures

8 Task 4.3 – EU-LAC innovation projects…. Under MinCyT and ADI co-leadership, Integrating sub-regional S&T thematic priorities and sub-regional TT recommendations, (sub)regional match-making events are organized around established key S&T themes, with LAC-EU science and industry partners, incorporating lessons learnt and best TT practices, Concrete S&T project profiles are developed, based on science-idustry partnerships (favoring SMEs) targeting FP7 instruments,
