The DRAGON-STARPLUS  consortium, coordinated by PRAXI / FORTH,   represents a wonderful mix of research and academic organisations, innovation intermediaries, public authorities, funding agencies and SMEs combining all the necessary expertise, capacity and contacts to implement the planned workplan. The project includes 6 committed associated partners (Academy of Finland, Netherlands enterprise Agency, INVITALIA, TUBITAK, the Danish Agency of Science, Technology and Innovation, and the Consiglio Nazionale delle ricerche) that have expressed interest to be involved in specific activities related to policy discussions.

DRAGON-STARPLUS  will thus benefit from the competencies of 4 core and highly experienced Chinese partners (China Science and Technology Exchange Centre, China-EU Center for Information & Communication Technologies in Agriculture, China Agricultural University, the University of Nottingham Ningbo China, and Beijing Software Enterprise Advisory Center) and 9 leading European partners (Foundation for Research and Technology Hellas (Coordinator), Sigma Orionis, the Agenzia per la Promozione Della Ricerca Europea, the Sociedade Portuguesa de Inovação, Phemonoe Lab, Steinbeis-Europa-Zentrum, Eurelations, KAIROS Future and The Austrian Research Promotion Agency )
