9th INPRO Dialogue Forum on International Collaboration on Innovations to Support Globally Sustainable Nuclear Energy Systems
International Project on Innovative Nuclear Reactors and Fuel Cycles (INPRO)

​18-21 November 2014 | IAEA Headquarter, Vienna, Austria

The 9th INPRO Dialogue Forum was organized within the framework of INPRO’s Task 4 ("Policy and Dialogue") and Task 2 ("Innovations"). Task 2 is dedicated to the investigation of innovations in selected nuclear energy technologies, related R&D and innovative institutional arrangements to be deployed in the 21st century, and to support Member States pursuing those innovations. In particular, this Forum was conducted under the INPRO activity "Disseminate good practices in enhancing collaboration in innovations to support sustainable nuclear energy systems".

The 9th INPRO Dialogue Forum addressed lessons learned, experiences and good practices in selected areas related to the establishment of effective collaboration mechanisms in support of innovations and R&D, particularly in the following areas:

  • Driving forces of collaboration on innovations;
  • Intellectual property management within the context of collaboration on innovations;
  • Collaboration between technology users, technology holders and other organizations on the infrastructure and institutional arrangements necessary for the development and deployment of sustainable NESs;
  • How to increase the trust between partners involved in collaboration on innovations to support the development of sustainable NESs
