The “good” things of the system:
Large autonomy Almost adequate level of funding Good interaction with all public authorities:
Ministry, Funding Bodies,... Good relations with Universities and Students Strong internationalization No dispersion of available resources Well represented in relevant policy boards and instances Young and dynamic Community ...

The “bad” things of the system:Sustainability of the system:
strong dependence on Governmental Weather turbulence...
Sustainability of employement: no real garanty, nolong term commitement
Sustainability of the collaboration with the Universities
Absence of investment in infrastructures and sustainability of existing infrastructures:
(Operation costs, reequipment, support staff..)
Dispersion of Funding programs
Burocracy
Delayed payements...
