Focus

BSR Stars' cluster-to-cluster conference and matchmaking is dedicated to matching clusters (and SME networks) with each other, and support them in finding relevant funding for international activities. This two-day event gives both insight into funding schemes dedicated to clusters (such as BSR Innovation Express and H2020) and a unique opportunity to establish international collaboration with other clusters.

In 2014, the event presents an increased focus on the opportunities for clusters in Horizon 2020 and takes place in Berlin in order to represent broader collaboration possibilities.
