Project description
Creation of an inclusive EU SDG innovation ecosystem
Meeting the United Nations’ sustainable development goals (SDGs) will not be easy. Success hinges on breakthrough innovations in terms of social, economic and environmental needs. The EU-funded SDG-INOV-ECOS project will provide capacity-building activities to enable SDG-driven innovation ecosystems in EU Members Italy, France and Portugal, as well as Central and Eastern Europe and Israel. It will boost collaboration between the various sectors – private investors, startups and SMEs, public agencies and sources of capital, as well as research and social enterprises. The aim is to facilitate knowledge exchange and identify actions and interventions in order to create new collaboration and engagement opportunities around SDG innovation.
Objective
The goal of this proposal is to build the capacity to co-create and foster an inclusive EU SDG driven innovation ecosystem, focused on the greatest social, economic and environmental needs of our time, thereby contributing to the realization of the green and digital transition of Europe. Its aim is to provide capacity-building activities to enable the establishment of SDGs-driven innovation ecosystems across Italy, France Portugal, CEE and Israel. We will foster the existing cross-sector collaboration, within the NAB’s and GSG, between the private (investors, comports, startups, SMEs) public (Governments, EU agencies, development banks), academia (research, knowledge, R&D and social (NGOS, philanthropy, social enterprises) actors as a means to plan the establishment of an interconnected and sustainable ecosystem by delivering new research and data, facilitating knowledge exchange, creating new collaboration and engagement opportunities within existing networks and beyond.
