The upcoming BRIDGE 2025 General Assembly will take place on March 25-26. On this occasion, R2D2 will be represented by its coordinator, Ugo Stecchi from ETRA, who will present the Action 1 Use Case repository on the second day, during the Data Management Working Group session on March 26. Additionally, UKIM and EDP partners will participate remotely as contributors to the Regulation and Business Models working groups, respectively.

A special highlight of the event: R2D2 will participate in the “World Café with BRIDGE Projects” on March 25, from 15:00 to 16:00. The project has been selected as one of the mature initiatives to showcase its results and engage in discussions with investors and financial experts on bridging the gap between innovation and investment.

Participants will have the opportunity to learn about the key achievements of the BRIDGE Working Groups in 2024 and engage in discussions on potential areas for improvement within the BRIDGE initiative, including cross-working group topics. The agenda will also feature a dedicated focus on funding and investments, highlighting actionable insights and opportunities for market-ready projects.

The event will bring together high-level officials from the European Commission and its agencies, BRIDGE project coordinators representing both academia and industry sectors, and investors.
