Project overview
Virtual Integrated Partnering (VIP) for SME service, technology and information providers in the European maritime sector
Grant agreement no: SCS0-GA-2011-266054
Grant agreement no: SCS0-GA-2011-266054
BackgroundSuccessful collaboration remains a problem within the European SME sector, as identified by the 2007 Observatory Survey*.
• Lack of awareness of service, technology, and information advances, e.g., VRShips, VIRTUE, and SAFEDOR EU funded projects have produced innovations that have been successfully exploited on a small scale.
There is a need for a more aggressive approach with regard to exploitation of advances through collaboration.
