Horizon 2020: New Centres of Excellence

The European Commission announced today an investment of €195 million via the Horizon 2020 programme in setting up and developing 13 new ‘centres of excellence’ in seven Member States, helping to boost research and innovation performance and inspiring the scientific community to develop new products and processes in tandem with leading scientific institutes from all over Europe.

We are pleased to see the new centres include ENSEMBLE³, which will focus on research excellence and innovation performance in the area of crystal growth-based technologies, novel functional materials with innovative electromagnetic properties, and applications in nanophotonics, optoelectronics and medicine.

Goldbeck Consulting supported ENSEMBLE³ in developing a Business Plan for the new centre and is looking forward to its fruitful implementation. Congratulations to Prof Dorota Pawlak and her team!
