Policy WG meeting: Ecosystem programmes and initiatives – taking stock and a look forward

Policy WG meeting: Ecosystem programmes and initiatives – taking stock and a look forward

With the new European Innovation Agenda adopted in July 2022 proposing ways to strengthen innovation in EU ecosystems as one of its five flagships, the ecosystem approach is getting stronger. For regions and cities interested in the topic, there is already quite a wide range of related programmes, calls and initiatives available. These include among others Partnerships for Regional Innovation (PRI), ERA hubs, Excellence hubs, European Innovation Ecosystems (EIE) and Interregional Innovation Investments (I3) Instrument.

The upcoming Policy Working Group meeting will focus on these different ecosystem programmes and initiatives – taking stock of what has been implemented so far, understanding the various links to get a clear, coherent picture, and exploring the next steps following the adoption of the Innovation Agenda. European Commission speakers will be invited to present the various opportunities and reflect on their added value together with the ERRIN members in the audience during the Q&A session.

The meeting took place in person at the ERRIN office on Thursday 22 September from 14:00-15:30. You may find the agenda attached.
