We support the action’s focus on supporting the implementation of the Guiding principles and the Codes of Practice for knowledge valorisation. However, with regards the emphasis of the role of knowledge valorisation intermediaries, it should be recognized that many research performing organisations have invested in in-house knowledge valorisation expertise and services, and thus can act in both research and valorisation role. Perspective of the action should remain wide including also non-technological research results from social sciences and humanities for addressing complex societal and policy challenges. Fostering the valorisation of research results should also be accompanied by appropriate follow-up funding, support mechanisms and incentives for researchers and their careers.
