Launch of the OECD/EC HEInnovate Country Report, Hungary - Professional event of the HEInnovate Network

In Hungary, increased attention to innovation and entrepreneurship both from public policy actors and HEI leadership has triggered an incremental change process in the organisational culture of HEIs and a new approach to education and research for students and staff. The OECD report offers valuable lessons for policy makers, HEI leaders and staff, and local development stakeholders in Hungary and beyond.

The review was made in collaboration of the OECD, the European Commission, the Ministry of Human Capacities and the Tempus Public Foundation. The OECD and the European Commission will present the HEInnovate review report in Hungary, Budapest in the framework of a professional conference of HEInnovate network.

Date of the event: November 29, 2017 9.30 am - 4.30 pm,
