Technion is a \u201cperfect match\u201d to join \u2013 and boost this joint endeavour, given its scientific excellence and vibrant innovation ecosystem.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boasting 84 ERC grants under the EU\u2019s FP7 and Horizon 2020 programmes as well as 90 spin-off companies, Technion is a striking example of how excellent fundamental science translates into impact. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cTechnion is thrilled and honoured to join the EuroTech Universities Alliance\u201d, said <\/span><b>Technion President, Prof. Peretz Lavie<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. \u201cWe live in an era in which international and interdisciplinary collaborations are vital to the future of scientific research. We bring the \u2018Technion way\u2019 of doing things to this partnership: reaching our goals faster and with fewer resources. The combination with the great strengths of the other members of the alliance, which comprises an elite group of European universities similar to Technion, will help us ensure we are at the forefront of scientific research, benefiting millions worldwide. \u201c<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The EuroTech Universities Alliance stimulates collaboration across education, research, and innovation, thereby increasing the attraction of global top talent needed to drive modernization, excellence, and societal impact. For instance, the existing EuroTech Postdoc programme<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> provides 80 promising fellows unique access to the research expertise and infrastructures across the EuroTech Universities while at the same time offering exclusive entrepreneurship and mobility opportunities in several of Europe\u2019s top high-tech ecosystems. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today\u2019s societal challenges can only be addressed by collaboration in education, research, and innovation across the EU and internationally. Recognizing what alliances of universities can achieve when pooling resources and combining strengths, the European Commission launched a pilot scheme in support of European university networks on 24 October 2018. At its annual High-Level Event in Brussels on 6 November, the EuroTech Universities Alliance facilitated a very timely and encouraging debate on the role of university alliances in driving the University of the Future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Technion, Israel Institute of Technology, will join the EuroTech Universities Alliance as of 1 January 2019.
