HAN University of Applied Sciences filed 3 positions between 8 Sept 2025 and 23 Oct 2025, across 3 of the 326 legislative files tracked here.
What they argued
HAN University of Applied Sciences (HAN UAS) welcomes the European Commissions initiative to establish a European Innovation Act. We support the ambition to strengthen the Single Market for Innovation and Entrepreneurs and urge the Commission to ensure that the Act reflects the full diversity of the European innovation landscape.
As HAN University of Applied Sciences, we fully support the development of an ERA act, to contribute to the 3% investment commitment, alignment across borders, and strengthening the circulation of knowledge and researchers. Europes first research legislation must enshrine the 3% R&D investment target as binding for all member states.
