RIS3 Thessaly Young Researchers Academy

The Thessaly RIS3 Young Researchers Academy is the educational component of the e-Hub and is designed to support young researchers, PhD candidates, postdoctoral researchers and early-career scientists who want to better understand how their research can be connected to innovation, market needs and the priorities of Thessaly RIS3.

The Academy operates online via JOIST Academy and offers asynchronous access to educational material, allowing participants to follow the modules at a flexible pace.

Participation in the Academy is the first step towards the more active involvement of young researchers in the e-Hub. Following the completion of the courses, participants can create their research profile, search for collaboration opportunities and make use of the networking, mentoring and matchmaking activities developed within the framework of RIS3 Thessaly. The RIS3Thessaly website already operates as a central tool for information, networking and the interconnection of businesses and research organisations, supporting funding and collaboration opportunities, as well as participation in innovation activities.
