Virtual brokerage event service helps life sciences companies participate in FP6

Brussels, 13 Dec 2002

Companies and research institutions active in the field of life sciences can now use the virtual brokerage event service to find partners for participation in the Sixth Framework Programme (FP6).

The service, launched on 6 December, is provided by the Partners for Life consortium - the European life sciences network for small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs).

Companies can perform searches in up-to-date partner records that have been quality checked by Partners for Life experts. The initiative is aimed at promoting SME participation in FP6, and also helps organisations to prepare for the first calls for proposals under the new framework programme, to be published on 17 December.
