Research union economy - science

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Research Union Economy - Science (often short: Research Alliance ) was an advisory body to the German government , which existed from 2006 to 2013 and the high-tech strategy of the German government has supported. In addition to specific questions, for which separate “promoter groups” have been set up, the research union also dealt with overarching questions about innovation. The high-tech strategy was originally adopted in 2006 and updated in 2010 as the “High-Tech Strategy 2020”.

The research union has recently aligned its subject areas to the “areas of need” that the federal government named in the summer of 2010 in the high-tech strategy 2020. These fields were: climate / energy, health / nutrition, mobility, security, communication and social framework conditions.
