The optimal usage of these resources represents a unique opportunity for Eastern European member countries. It could help us reach the level of more developed EU members, and at the same time, it provides an opportunity to be an equal competitor under equal competition conditions after 2020. At the beginning of this period, there is a chance to assess the tasks, the most important roles and responsibilities of innovation networks. With a history of over 25 years, this conference offers a forum for discussion dedicated to this assessment. Presenters, posters and enquirers of the R&D&I sector, economic and civil sectors alike are warmly welcome. Planned sections Presenter sections (finalisation will take place according to the submitted materials) 1. Social Innovations 2. Knowledge and Knowledge Management 3.
