Relevance for the Innovation Radar (IR) website of the European Commission

TRL is being requested by the European Commission as a tool to understand the maturity of project results. It is also used as a basis for selecting technologies into the innovation radar. HBP must use it

Participants will know how to apply a checklist to know the maturity of the result depending on each type (HW, SW, data sets, models, etc.)
