The 4th edition of Transfiere, European Forum for Science, Technology and Innovation, will be held in Malaga from 11-12 February, positioning it as Spain’s top scientific-technological event.

The coming edition of the forum will have a highly specialized programme revolving around innovation and its convergence on an international level, the role played by technological platforms, and entrepreneurship related to R&D&I.

Transfiere offers the scientific-research community, with an accent on universities, a unique opportunity to present the results of their work to the business community.

At the International Innovation Forum, the state of affairs as regards research in Spain will be analyzed, along with the R&D&I strategies of the country’s different regions, models for promoting innovative SMEs in USA and the European Union, innovation policies in benchmark countries like Israel, systematizing innovation and its assessment in SMEs, and financing models and successful case studies.
