Short description
The general goal of the project is to contribute to the development and improvement of innovation capacities and the adoption of advanced technologies through the support of innovation processes in the cross-border area as well as the improvement of business support services for existing and new SMEs and entrepreneurs in order to enable them to develop new innovative products and services. The project will result in increasing the capacity of innovators, strengthening the regional ICT ecosystem and strengthening the competitiveness of small and medium-sized enterprises. Although the project is a continuation of the previous successful cooperation of project partners, the project uses innovative and original approaches since the partners base their activities on cross-border cooperation and joint implementation of programs for innovators, members of coworking spaces and startups. Until now, such programs have not been implemented in the cross-border area, and by combining the knowledge, experience and resources of all project partners, a synergy is created that will result in an improved business environment in the cross-border area.
The project is co-financed by the European Union through the Cross-Border Cooperation Program (IPA CBC).
