Scientists and entrepreneurs from the medical technology and health industry, as well as from the logistics industry, can more effectively obtain funds from the Horizon Program for works in the area of research, development and innovation. They will be assisted by Industry Contact Points (BPK), at Warsaw’s Łukasiewicz – Institute of Aviation and Wrocław’s Łukasiewicz – PORT Polish Center for Technology Development.

In total, six Industry Contact Points will be created. Two BPK are already in operation, including The Łukasiewicz Center in Gliwice – the Institute of Non-Ferrous Metals and in Warsaw Łukasiewicz – the Industrial Institute for Automation and Measurements PIAP. The fifth and sixth will be launched in June at the Warsaw-based Łukasiewicz – Institute of Mechanization of Construction and Rock Mining and in Łukasiewicz – Poznań Institute of Technology.

Their goal is to increase the chances of Polish entrepreneurs and scientists for the implementation of projects under the Horizon Europe program.
