With Turkey becoming one of the newest members of ECSEL JU (Electronic Components and Systems for European Leadership Joint Undertaking), Blesh had the opportunity to present a new R&D project and submit its proposal at the ECSEL Call Forum 2017 in Brussels on March 2nd, 2017.

Having a mission of implementing a public-private partnership to keep Europe at the forefront of technology development, ECSEL JU offers funding for research, development and innovation projects in Europe.

The forum was designed to target potential applicants for calls for proposals to be launched later this year and meet project partners and exchange ideas.

As one of the 3 companies from Turkey, Blesh presented its proposal for “Occupational Health and Security Solutions offering Location Based Training and Alert Systems”.

Emrah Surat, Data Scientist and Innovation Coordinator at Blesh, briefly presented the proposal as well as the R&D projects Blesh has led so far. Blesh has already completed three R&D projects for Tubitak and TEYDEB (Technology and Innovation Support Program in Turkey) since 2014.
