One of the key goals of the FEEF project is to reduce the gap between the Academia and the Business world. For that we need to create bridges between the different stakeholders, by creating effective communication channels. 

In order to do that we need to understand what are the main barriers and difficulties we are facing so the FEEF team decided to create a survey and a focus group with people from the different sectors (Academia, Business world and Hybrid - which are the ones that are part of both worlds) and understand the next steps to reduce this gap.
