Nine information days in French FP7 launch event - Ile-de-France, 14-28 November

Brussels, 18 October 2006

To mark the start of the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7), a launch event comprising nine information days will be held in France from 14 to 28 November 2006.

The events, which will take place at different sites in the Ile-de-France region, will be transmitted by video to the event's partner regions across the country. The aim of the event is to provide information on the content and rules of participation of FP7 in advance of the first calls for proposals, which are expected at the end of 2006.

During the nine days, all areas of the new Framework Programme will be explored in a range of presentations, while participants will have regular opportunities to ask questions.
