Ziel
The main objective of the INNOSUTRA project is ‘to assess the conditions, including policy
support, under which innovative concepts have a high chance of getting adopted and being
successful’. The work will start from the state-of-the-art and results attained in previous
research projects and actions dealing with innovation processes, not only at European but
often also at national or regional level, with the following goals targeted towards key action
5. Firstly, to identify the paths that new innovative concepts usually follow, what key
determinants are, which actors are involved, and what policy has been doing and can do.
As part of this, a typology of variables will be established, which will determine the possible
path options. This will be the basis for the identification of successful adoption paths.
Illustrations will be provided of the performance of innovative concepts in the transport
sector, covering the maritime and port, land and integrated transport sectors, fitting each
time into one of the typology cells. A further goal will be to come up with clear policy
recommendations, identify best practices, barriers to implementation and transferability of
innovative concepts and processes. Finally, the research will establish developments
needed in assessment methods, complementary tools and a methodological framework if
innovative concepts are introduced. Stakeholder consultation, collaboration and
dissemination is a strong thread running through the whole of the research as a means of
obtaining information, stimulating new thinking, providing feedback through peer review and
strengthening the link between research and policy making.
