Commitment of different actors in the regions (incl. companies) to

long-term cluster based R&D

Efficient exploitation of interfaces between different fields of expertisewithin the Competence Cluster

Bigger programme entities create better prerequisites forinternationally remarkable innovation environments

Gathers scattered top expertise and at the same time creates aneffective new way to disseminate information and know how

Despite a region-based model, connection to national innovationpolicy will be strengthened
