This week the European Commission has launched a new series of calls open for proposals in the FP7 framework. We provide you herewith an overview of the submission deadlines for the different themes that can be of interest to you.

The FTP is proud to invite you to the Forest-Based Sector Technology Platform’s 7th conference: “FTP-c7” or “Pacing Innovation for the Bioeconomy” taking place on 26 - 27 September 2011 at the Sobieski Hotel, in Warsaw, Poland, in conjunction with the Polish EU presidency and hosted by the Polish FTP National Support Group chaired by our InnovaWood President Ewa Ratajczak.

In collaboration with the FTP the InnovaWood Secretariat is actively involved in the preparation of call topics for the FP7 Work Programme 2013 (last call for proposals in FP7). For this process the FTP has divided the Forestry Wood Chain in to three subgroups: Forestry, Wood technology and Pulp and Paper.
