Description
Talència, a public institution and instrument of the Government of Catalonia, implements measures aimed at fostering and recognising research in Catalonia, and also seeks to become an international point of reference for our research community. As a new institution to support research in Catalonia, Talència has been created to fulfill the mandate of the Catalan Agreement on Research and Innovation (CARI)—promoted by the Government of Catalonia and Innovation and signed in October 2008—, which is adopting a new more intelligent, efficient, and effective research governance system in Catalonia.
The institution focuses on training and attracting research talent; providing better incentives and conditions for research; becoming a point of reference for the assessment of the research system; improving the social recognition of research; and increasing the impact of research (improving knowledge transfer between university and enterprise).
