EmpInno Monitor S3 realised its Final Conference
Since 2016 the Interreg Baltic Sea Region projects EmpInno and EmpInno Monitor S3 supported partner regions in Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and Sweden to foster the implementation and improvement of RIS3. This happened inter alia by providing diverse actors from strategy owners to strategy implementers with the needed resources to work with the RIS3 approach and by boosting cooperation with SMEs within and beyond the partner regions.

With lively
interactive discussions in three breakout sessions on the questions of HOW MIGHT WE
... ensure a smooth dialogue and create trust between S3 strategy implementers and owners and further stakeholders?
… develop and apply good digital tools for information from end-users in S3 monitoring systems?
… define
indicators and methods that are relevant, long-lasting and could be used across Europe?
and input from the Policy Area Coordinator Innovation of the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region - Esa Kokkonen - we feel better prepared for the ongoing task of creating and maintaining innovation ecosystems based on sound monitoring of smart specialisation strategies.
