Valorisation involves: 1. Testing and dissemination of the results of the project; 2. The exploitation of the results and their development in new context and environments; 3.

DISSEMINATION OF EU PROJECTS RESULTS

The European Union and its funding bodies, agencies etc. put great emphasis on dissemination and exploitation of results.
