Experience report of a project partner
Laurentiu Moldovan | Sc Rodax Impex Srl
How did you get involved in FP7 projects? What was your motivation behind?
The history begins 40 years ago when Romania didn`t import anything and tried to develop in the research institutes new products, competitive on the market with good results for the economy. After 20years of experience in Institute of Mechatronics from Bucharest with many outcomes in the national technical research domain I settled SC RODAX IMPEX SRL in 1993, SME with 100%
Romanian capital having the main activity in research field and manufacture. From 1990 until now RODAX has participated in many national research projects, as a partner and also as a coordinator.
In the meantime we started to promote on the EU websites (CORDIS) our expertise and the scientific results and the manufacture products. Thus, we have been contacted by Prof. Lazzery Andrea from University of Pisa and we decided to collaborate for writing proposals in the domain of biodegradable packaging materials. At that time we had strong collaborators from other research
institutes (UASMV, INCERPLAST) who have been accepted as beneficiaries in the project. So, we managed to be partner in FP 7 projects with other experienced partners upgrading our knowledge but in the meantime we implemented our expertise in the project domain at a high level.
