R&I support in general:

Lack of interaction between

levels of governance anddepartments

Strategies without externalperspective duplication

Lack of or indifference to

critical mass Measures only for R&I and

capacity building, but not fordemand stimulation / marketaccess new forms of innov.

Focus on fashionable themes /prestige projects

Focus on industries and not onemerging sectors andservices

Innovation Strategies for Smart SpecialisationInnovation Strategies for Smart Specialisation

An economic transformation agenda based on 4CCs:

1. (Tough ) Choic es and Cri t ical mass :(Tough) Choices and Cri t ical mass :limited number of priorities on the basis of ownstrengths and international specialisation avoid duplication and fragmentation inEuropean R&D Area

2. Comp et it ive A dvantage:Comp eti t ive Advantage:mobilize talent by matching RTD + i capacities and businessneeds through an entrepreneurial discovery process

3. Clusters and Conn ect iv i tyClusters and Conn ect iv i ty:: developdevelop world class clusters and provide arenas forrelated variety/cross-sectorial links internally in the region and externally, which drivespecialised technological diversification match what you have with what the rest ofthe world has

4. Collaborat ive Leadership :Col laborat ive Leadership :efficient innovation systems as a collective endeavourbased on public-private partnership (quadruple helix) experimental platform to givevoice to un-usual suspects

Innovation can not be dictated but it can be cult ivated

(The Federal Government and the growth of Regional I nnovation Clusters,

J. Sallet et Al , 2009)


10/16

Not about specialisation in a narrow sense ("lock-in")

It means avoiding duplication and fragmentation of effort with scarce public

resources within the Union, thus helping in deepening the single market through

"open" RIS and inter-regional connections across the EU.

It means being selective and support the R&I activities that are relevant in view of

existing conditions and assets (e.g. evidence based policy evaluation, soundSWOT,) and breaking away from established lobbies and rent-seekers. Relevant in the sense of assessing how R&I can help transform the existing economic

structure in order to face globalisation

Relevant in the sense of selecting that R&I activities with the highest potential for

knowledge spill-overs to irrigate large sections of the economy (related-variety)

It is neither "coffee for all" nor "picking winners from above". It is not about

selecting firms or sectors but the R& (broad) I activities and/or generic

technology(ies) that can help a regional economy diversify into higher value added

markets, modernise/rejuvenate or exploit new/emerging economic activites.

To what does the RIS3 apply?ERDF investment priority 1

1. Research, technological development and innovation:

a) R&I infrastructure and capacity to develop excellence in R&Iand promotion of centres of competence

b) encouraging investment in R&I by enterprises, developingproducts and services, transfer of technology, social innovation,public service applications, stimulating demand, networking,clustering, open innovation, smart specialisation

c) supporting research and applied technology, pilot lines,validation actions early products, advanced manufacturingcapabilities, first production in key enabling technologies,diffusion of multipurpose technologies*.

*) ICT, photonics, nano- and bio-technologies, advanced materials, etc..

Ex-ante conditionality Fulfilment criteria [in red: Council proposals ]

How will the RIS3 conditionality fulfilment be checked?

An indicative multi-annual plan for budgeting and

prioritization of investments linked to EU priorities,

and, where appropriate, the European Strategy

Forum on Research Infrastructures - ESFRI has

been adopted.

1.2 (in addition, for research

infrastructures) The existence of a multi-

annual plan for budgeting and

prioritisation of investments

Opportunities for combining sources of funding:Articles 55(8), 60(2) and 87(2)(c)(v&vi)

Same project supported by different funds [Art.55(8), CP Gen.Reg.] possible for different expenditures items [ex-ante identification of

expenditure items and assignment to one source could be discussed]

Support outside of the programme area [Art.60(2), CP Gen.Reg.]

possible up to 10% (at priority level) [1%-15%]: useful for enablingcombined support from CP & H-2020 to partners in different countries.

Support from different operational programmes

Enhanced possibility to use CP in the framework of the arrangementsfor interregional and transnational actions in mainstream OP [Art.87(2)(c)(v&vi) of proposed Gen.Reg.), on the basis of theopportunities offered by the provisions of the above mentioned Art.55(8) and Art. 60(2).

[pm: Art. 87(2)(c)(v) concerns interregional and transnational actions and

Art.87(2)(c)(vi) concerns macro regional strategies and sea basin strategies]
