At EMRDA, we are more than just an association—we are a vibrant network dedicated to enhancing the European Research Area (ERA) and fostering a collaborative environment for RMAs spanning academia, industry, and the public and private sectors.
Bridging Cultures and Sectors
One of the core strengths of EMRDA lies in our ability to bridge cultural and legal differences between countries and between academia and industry. As a network that spans diverse regions and sectors, we understand that effective research management requires a nuanced approach that respects local regulations while aligning with broader European and international standards.
Our members are at the forefront of managing research projects, navigating complex regulations, and ensuring compliance with diverse funding requirements. Through EMRDA, RMAs gain access to a wealth of resources and expertise, enabling them to excel in their roles and drive impactful research initiatives.
Collaborating with the EU Commission and Funding Agencies
A significant aspect of EMRDA’s mission is our close collaboration with the EU Commission and various national and international funding agencies. By working together with these key stakeholders, we help shape research policies and funding strategies that support innovation and advancement across Europe.
Our involvement in policy consultations allows us to represent the interests and needs of RMAs, ensuring that research management practices are continuously improved and aligned with the evolving landscape of research funding and regulation.
Networking and Knowledge Sharing
