Kick-off of the Horizon Europe project Skills2Capabilities

At the end of March, the researchers of the project consortium met for the first time on site, hosted by 3s Research & Consulting as the project coordinator, with some spring in Vienna experience.

Researchers from the nine partner insti­tu­ti­ons from Austria, Bulgaria, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway and the UK met in Vienna for the official kick-off of the Horizon Europe project Skills2Capabilities — Matching Skills: Capabilities, Organisations and Institutions. The opening event was a public lecture by Ken Mayhew and an expert dis­cus­sion at the Federation of Austrian Industries. Afterwards, details of the research projects of the seven work packages were presented, discussed and refined in internal workshops over two days. A suc­cessful start for the three-year project on questions of how the interplay of qua­li­fi­ca­ti­on systems and needs can be refined in the con­stant­ly changing labour market.
