The conference is co-organised by the European Commission and EDSP members Rzeszow University of Technology -partner of the ASSETs+ project- and Aviation Valley, on 21-22 October 2021 in Rzeszow, Poland.

There will be an opportunity for business-to-business (b2b) meetings, and for visiting technical labs.
Topics:

- Technical and soft skills of today and the future
- New skills driven by emerging technologies
- European policies supporting the skills development with concrete examples
