EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT

Mrs. Eryl McNally

MEMBER OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT                                               

East of England Region

‘The Role and Place of SMEs in Framework Programme VI (Research & Development)

I would like to invite you to attend a conference I am organising on Friday, 20th September, 2002 at the University of Hertfordshire’s Fielder Centre in Hatfield from 11am to 4pm.

 I am aware of the concerns of many SMEs in the East of England Region regarding the 6th Framework Programme’s financial rules and banking and security levels.  The conference is aimed at addressing and answering many of these questions, and will also highlight the opportunities available to SMEs within the Programme.

European Commission representatives Richard Escritt and Robert-Jan Smits (Research DG), and Karl-Heinz Robrock (Information Society DG) will be attending in order to advise on all aspects of the 6th Framework Programme.

The event will be of keen interest to those SMEs with previous experience of Framework Programmes, or who are interested in future participation, and will provide an excellent opportunity for active participation and questioning.  A fee of £35 is being requested in order to cover costs, including buffet lunch and refreshments, and cheques should be made payable to ‘Eryl McNally MEP’.

I hope you will join us, and would be grateful if you would complete and return the enclosed acceptance form.  As the maximum number of delegates is being limited to 50, to allow for detailed discussions, acceptances will be treated on a first come, first served basis, and I look forward to seeing you on Friday, 20th September, 2002.

 

To:      Mrs. Eryl McNally, MEP.,

            European Office, The Labour Party,

            270 St. Albans Road,
