Sector Consortia Development and Deliverables
Wednesday March 4, 2009 to Friday, March 6, 2009
The topics covered in the panel sessions will feed into the third part of these workshops: participants will apply the knowledge acquired during the panels towards formulating and implementing Sector Consortia roadmaps and projects. Finally, as a measure of success of the event, each Sector Consortium will present the findings and outcome from the previous five days of workshops.
Sector Consortia Workshops Tutorial and Sector Consortia Leaders Panel
This plenary session aims to guide workshop participants in understanding the CANEUS process for formulating missions, goals, roadmaps, and projects for the Sector Consortia, as well as the ROI and the business justification for each project. In this session, Sector Consortia leaders will give a brief overview of the current status of their consortium.
Sector Consortia: Mission, Goals, and Roadmap
The goal of these breakout sessions is to create and formalize the Roadmap of each of the Sector Consortia. The roadmaps will include each Sector Consortium’s goals and missions, in addition to its scope of work and the vision of both its short- and long-term activities. An overview of each Consortium’s past activities and achievements will precede discussion.
Sector Consortia: Project Development and Framework
The goal of these breakout sessions is to define projects and project concepts. A general project plan coherent with the roadmap outlined in the previous session will be drafted (6 months, 1 year, 2 years). Participants will address business development issues, such as NDA, IP, and government regulations.
Sector Consortia: Roadmap Refinement
These breakout sessions aim to refine the Roadmaps previously laid out. Participants in each Sector Consortium will specify tasks and assign responsibilities with timelines to execute the Roadmap.
Sector Consortia: Project Refinement
These breakout sessions aim to refine the well-defined projects previously reviewed: participants will outline teaming and funding schemes, plan project oversight and execution, and establish milestones from which to gauge success of the project.
Sector Consortia Reports
These plenary sessions aim to summarize the output of each of the Sector Consortia workshop sessions. In these sessions, workshop participants have the opportunity to learn about the activities and roadmaps of other Sector Consortia.
