R&I Policy and Funding Programmes Manager at Eurecat, the leading Technology Centre in Catalonia.I’m an expert in EU R&I funding policies and its relationship with the national and regional policies. I have a deep understanding of the R&I EU funding programmes, the processes that generate them and the related bodies and stakeholders.In the triangle “technology”, “R&I policies” and “industry”, I analyse scenarios, detect trends, translate for non-experts and I propose action plans to promote funding opportunities for technology-based innovation initiatives in many different fields of knowledge.I can easily connect and translate policy strategies into operative actions.I actively participate in several technology platforms at EU and national level, as integrative and channelling agents of R&I interests for different sectors and topics.I am truly motivated to contribute to generate wellbeing and wealth through knowledge and industrial technology innovation.
