Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) has been holding webinars on IMI2 from 27^th of November. All webinars will feature a presentation by the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA), and will include time for questions and answers. The webinars represent an excellent opportunity to learn more about the Call topics, to interact directly with the topic coordinators, and to get in touch with potential project partners.

The webinar on IMI’s rules and procedures will include presentations of IMI's intellectual property policy and tips on the preparation of proposal submissions. IMI will also hold a dedicated webinar for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). This will cover elements of the different Call topics that may be of particular relevance for SMEs, as well as a presentation of IMI’s rules and procedures with a focus on aspects that are most important for SMEs. The slides presented will be published, along with recordings of all webinars.
