Between December 4th and 7th, Prince Philippe of Belgium will visit Chile along with a large delegation of authorities from the business and higher education sectors, among others.

The visit by Belgian university authorities aims to strengthen academic collaboration between the two countries, especially the relationship between scientific research and productive innovation, that is, university-business links.

Among the numerous activities that will take place during those days, there are two of special relevance for the Council of Rectors of Chilean Universities, CRUCH.
On December 5th, a seminar on the relationship between university and innovation will be held, which will include a round table discussion where experiences or research programs that meet conditions of excellence, relationship with the productive world and links with the Belgian university community will be presented.
On the 6th, the Belgian rectors of the universities of Brussels, Liège and Louvain will meet with a group of rectors from the CRUCH universities, in order to analyze the agreement signed in 2007 and the future prospects for academic cooperation between the parties.
