Goal of the Conference Dear Sir/Madam, On
behalf of ASD Secretary General Mr François
Gayet, it is a great pleasure to invite you to
the STACCATO Final Forum. STACCATO is a European
project funded by the European Commission under
the Preparation Action for Security Research
(PASR) 2004-2006. The project aims at proposing
methods and solutions for the creation of a
security market and a structured supply chain in
Europe by identifying implementation
measures. STACCATO project is mapping existing
competencies in the EU-27, highlighting the role
of SMEs in order to integrate their innovation
potential and examine ways to undertake a
coordination of the European Security and
Technological Industrial Base (STIB), proposing a
methodology for technological watch, and
analyzing the condition and propose
recommendations to develop a common European
Security Equipment Market (ESEM) by identifying
common needs, taking into account regulatory
issues and coordination with regional, national,
international and EU security research
programmes. These activities are supported by an
enlarged multi-sector stakeholders platform
composed of users, industries, SMEs, academia and
think tanks of the EU-27 based on the SeNTRE and
ESRAB (European Security Research Advisory Board)
experience. In this framework, a Final Forum
will be organised in Brussels on the 24th of
April 2008. Industry, SMEs Think Tanks, Research
and Technology Organizations (RTOs), Academia and
End Users are invited to participate in this
process on the basis of their fields of
competence.
