Reflections on dialogue-oriented InstrumentsGreatest Benefits

• Better targeted public support• More value (research) for

money• Shorter time to market

• Creativity through diversity• Closer to the owner, increased

ownership

Greatest Challenges

• To balance desire and reality• To convey the idea, that co-

operation is a task of the community as a whole

• That everybody has to contribute an even share to be successful

• To redefine tasks and responsibilities in the light of new partnership arrangements

• To live the "principle of subsidiary" and to avoid new bureaucracy


Example 4 - Demand-side oriented Policy Measures

Innovation Vouchers

− Directed towards the specific needs of SME

− support SME to improve the quality of the planning, development and putting into action of new products, production methods or services

− 4 Types A, B, B Hightech, Creative Industrieshttp://mfw.baden-wuerttemberg.de/de/mensch-wirtschaft/mittelstand-und-handwerk/innovationsgutscheine/


Coaching of SME in the field of

− innovative products, services and processes

− internal innovation management

The coaching is designed to accompany the phases of

− analysis

− implementation

Volume: 15 days of coaching per SME
