|
 | To Create new innovative enterprises, support spin-off companies and develop start-ups. These policy objectives in particular are shared n many regions both the EU and worldwide.
|
PAXIS aspires to gather all these ideas and recommendations and through advanced networking and collaboration, make them prolific and accessible. The five Thematic Networks and their members are:
 | KREO: Oxford (UK), Karlsruhe-Pforzheim (DE), Lyon-Grenoble (FR) and Emilia-Romagna (I)
