24.10. Hear about Business Finland's new Working Life Research Call and find research partners to collaborate with!
Researchers, come learn about Business Finland's new Working Life Research Call: Competitiveness, Productivity, and Quality of Working Life – Leadership and Organizational Development in Digital Transformation.
We’re hosting a special event at the university where we’ll gather to listen to the info session, meet other researchers, and connect with the Innovation Centre experts! After the info, the goal is to form groups that could collaborate on applications for this call. The call also requires involvement from other research institutions.
"Business Finland has recently launched new multidisciplinary programs. The themes of this program are a great fit for faculties at the University of Oulu that haven't lately submitted many applications to BF calls. We've often heard that researchers don’t know the researchers from the neighboring faculty, who might be interested in similar themes. That’s why we’re testing a new approach to bring research groups together for this call," explain Innovation Centre’s business experts Maria Juurikka and Kaisa Still.
Maria and Kaisa hope to see a large turnout for the info session and will be there in person to assist.
