This event, held online from 12:00 to 14:00 CET on Oct. 25th, is brought to you by the ENLIGHT team working on the PROMOTION OF EARLY CAREER DEVELOPMENT & IMPROVE RESEARCHER ASSESSMENT section of the ENLIGHT-RISE project.

One of the key engagements of ENLIGHT is to create a balanced network across different social, economic and geographic areas in Europe, with careful attention to the way expertise and opportunities are shared across the network, and to develop a supportive structure for talent development, career guidance, and business ideas.
