The Key Exploitable Results (KERs) Management Webinar is a joint initiative by IRISCC, ENVRINNOV, and ENVRI-Hub NEXT projects. The webinar will explore KERs and how they contribute to project impact and EC reporting. The session will provide awareness, alignment, and practical guidance on KERs, including value definition, ownership, reporting requirements, and enabling uptake.
This webinar is designed to clarify responsibilities, de-risk IP/licensing, and harmonise KER reporting across projects.
Following the webinar, an IRISCC-only workshop will take place to finalise responsibilities and action plans for KERs specific to the IRISCC project.
