EUREKA celebrates 30 years of coordinated European Investment in innovation EUREKA, the network for promoting cross-border innovation is turning 30. EUREKA is exploiting this important anniversary to showcase in the coming year its history, achievements and its impact - and an investment of some €36 billion leveraged over its existence. A video currently being produced will have a close look at the history of the network, illustrating just a few of the network's many success stories. A report of technological trends since 1985 will highlight EUREKA's role in developing tomorrow's technologies. Part of the anniversary programme is an event in Lugano, Switzerland. The event will be organised under the auspices of the Swiss EUREKA Chairmanship with speakers including Jacques Attali, one of EUREKA’s founders and a former advisor and G-7 sherpa to French President François Mitterrand.
