SOUTH AFRICA: MINISTER BLADE NZIMANDE PARTICIPATES IN XXVII EUREKA MINISTERIAL
CONFERENCE AND GLOBAL INNOVATION SUMMIT, 22 TO 23 JUN


19 June 2022
Government of South Africa (Pretoria)
press release

The Minister of Higher Education, Science and Innovation, Dr Blade Nzimande will
be participating in the XXVII Eureka Ministerial Conference in Lisbon, Portugal
from the 22 to the 23rd June 2022.

The Eureka Ministerial Conference will be held under the Chairpersonship of
Portugal.

The Eureka Network was established in 1985 as a pan-European research and
development funding and coordination organization. The Network, which has
subsequently grown to have a global reach, aims to coordinate efforts of
governments, research institutes and commercial companies with regards to
innovation. The Network specifically supports international cooperation in
market-orientated research and development in all technology sectors.




South Africa joined the Network on the 20th June 2014 and its membership is
extended to 2025.

The Department of Science and Innovation has been representing South Africa,
also being the only African country in the Network. Importantly, the benefit for
South Africa of participation in the Network is access to market opportunities
across Europe and beyond while leveraging funds for the National System of
Innovation (NSI).

During the conference, Minister Nzimande will speak on the topic "Eureka as a
key driver for sustainability and innovation".




The Minister will also attend the Global Innovation Summit (GIS). The event is a
meeting place for business and innovation agencies to share knowledge, network,
collaboration and secure future business growth opportunities. These involve
showcasing the most promising innovations, highlighting the work from main
stakeholders of the global innovation ecosystem from private sector research to
academia.
