UNCHAIN – UNiversity CHAir on INnovation Goals UNCHAIN should function as a blue-print for similar activities for more universities and university co-operation in the MEDA regions UNCHAIN should be a guinea pig for a wider network of University Chairs of Innovation for UNIDO

UNCHAIN – UNiversity CHAir on INnovation Target groups a)University professors, researchers, administrators, students and graduates from the EU and MEDA countries (to support the university-industry cooperation and make it successful); b)Government officials mainly from both MEDA ministries of Higher Education and Industry to politically support this cooperation by different means (to support the implementation of the Technology Transfer Policy in the MEDA region and the EU MEDA university- industry strategy); c)Industry partners from the MEDA/EU countries to participate and collaborate with the universities to force the innovation culture inside the universities and financially support R&D activities; and d)public in the MEDA region to introduce the culture of innovation in the MEDA region.

UNCHAIN – UNiversity CHAir on INnovation Information channels Web-based dissemination Dissemination Events (Innovation Train): This train is an initiative that will be travelling between the four MEDA partners to disseminate the project outputs. Different target groups will be invited to attend (ministries, industry, other universities, donors, NGOs, etc.). Well known speakers will be invited to attract the audience. Students will be given chances to present successful stories. Publications: The support package will be developed for promoting the idea of the Innovation Char. The package includes different publications such as flayers, posters, booklets and video materials that illustrate the project success and results. Media in the MEDA region: The influence in the MEDA region of the UNDIO regional office, IMC and SEKEM will be used to involve the media in all the project events and meetings. Text and materials will be prepared and sent to the media to be published. Documentary Video Film: The consortium will document the best practices of the successful processes as video materials (e.g. successful student innovation MSc).
