This project aims to develop an analytical framework for the mapping and assessment of research portfolios. The notion of ?research portfolio? is increasingly used by funding agencies. However, there is no clear understanding and very little research on how to define, map and assess a research portfolio. Here we aim to develop a multi-method approach to investigate a research portfolio of a given disease.
The Pioneers into Practice programme is included as an activity in the Climate-KIC Business Plan 2011 as part of the Entrepreneurship pillar. It aims to change the day to day practices of professionals with current responsibilities in business, government and research. The narrow
specialisation of these roles is unsuited to the demands of systemic innovation. Sector specific managers need to become boundary-crossing low carbon entrepreneurs.

Se analizan distintos modelos de gestión aplicados en Europa entorno a las relaciones Universidad-Empresa. En la contribución de la parte desarrollada por nuestro grupo ha consistido en el análisis y conceptualización del modelo implantado en la Universidad Politécnica de Valencia.
Public Research Organisations Transfer Office Network (Pro Ton Europe) (2002-2005), es un proyecto financiado por la D.G de Empresas de la Comisión Europea en el marco de la iniciativa «Gate2Growth» (contrct nº IPS-2000-1104) y liderado por K.U. Leuven R&D, en cuyo desarrollo participan otras 13 entidades europeas.
This project aims at exploring and exploiting the potential of advanced quantitative methods for evaluating the performance of Public Sector Research (PSR). Analysing in particular the system of universities, this is an exploratory project based on the availability of national data at the micro level (university or department) that include at least a minimum set of inputs and outputs. Among the inputs we consider mainly: number of personnel by category (research, technical, administrative);(possibly) number of research personnel by type; funding.
The proposed project, in line with PRIME objectives, acknowledges the new challenges (economic, social and ethical) posed by a changing scientific landscape in Europe, characterised by increasing globalisation of research, by the emergence of new search regimes and by changes in knowledge production and circulation.
The project is the continuation of the AQUAMETH project (2004-2005), that has delivered an integrated dataset across six European countries: Italy, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, UK; a series of papers; and a forthcoming book (2006).
The scientific objectives of the AQUAMEHT - phase 2 project are:
a) consolidating and expanding the AQUAMETH methodology and dataset to new countries: Germany, Netherlands, Hungary and France;
b) exploring new issues using the integrated AQUAMETH dataset, in particular:
