Foresight on Biotechnology in Small Candidate Countries

International Conference on Meeting the Challenges for Development of Research, Technology and Innovation Policies for Biotechnology

12 September 2002 - Tartu, Estonia

The "Foresight on Biotechnology in Small Candidate Countries" Conference is targeted to policy makers responsible for public policy planning and implementation within science, technology and innovation fields with particular emphasis on biotechnology. The conference aims from one hand at introducing foresight methodologies as tools for policy planning and from another hand at discussing relevant perspectives and challenges related to the development of biotechnology particularly in small candidate countries. Issues from social justice to changing economic paradigms will be addressed in the context of strategic options available for small countries within the conference. The Conference will also focus on how establishment of the European Research Area will help candidate countries to formulate and coordinate their policies for biotechnology.

The conference is organised in conjunction with the biggest Biotechnology Conference in Baltic States: "Gene Technology Forum 2002 - Personalized Medicine: Myth or Reality". Gene Technology Forum 2002 (www.geneforum.ee) will be held on 13-14 September in Tartu, Estonia. It is already the third international forum related to development of biotechnology. Gene Technology Forum has attracted in previous years more than 500 participants world-wide. Those participants interested in more specific gene technology development issues will be able to participate also in the Gene Technology Forum 2002.
