Project ObjectivesProject Objectives
Develop a transnational innovation service to support the creation and operation of business opportunity networks between companies, innovation and research centres in different regions across the Northern Periphery
Use the service to develop concrete research, technology transfer and business partnering linkages/clusters involving small companies, research centres and the 3rd level in the Northern Periphery.
Test the efficacy of the service (objective1) and the approach (objective 2) for developing technology linkages with innovation assets and business clusters in regions external to the project and the Northern Periphery.
