Annual Event on Public Public Partnerships 2017: Co-designing Public-Public Partnerships (P2Ps) for the next Framework Programme (FP9)

The focus of the 2017 Annual Public-Public Partnerships Conference was on the future of P2Ps under the motto "Co-designing Public-Public Partnerships for the next Framework Programme", to emphasise the collaborative approach in involving stakeholders in the future design of P2Ps. We are moving towards a wider partnership approach encompassing public-public partnerships (P2Ps), public-private partnerships (PPPs) and other relevant research and innovation partnerships. This move should be a collective effort among the Commission, Member States (MS) and relevant stakeholders in the research and business communities.
