Innovation Relay Centre - Bulgaria

Objective

IRC-Bulgaria (IRC-BG) project aims to continue the operation of the existing since 1997 IRC and will be implemented in a consortium of 3 partners: Applied Research and Communications Fund, Bulgarian Industrial Association and Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. The focus of IRC-BG will be on maintaining the existing and developing new high quality, cost effective services aimed at delivering successful TTT to its clients through inward and outward flow of new technologies and identification and promotion of RTD results. Clients will be assisted throughout the negotiation process to arrive at a final TTT contract between the parties. The target groups of the project are SMEs (special attention will be given to women-entrepreneurs), universities, research organisat ions and single inventors. To achieve higher impact on the economy, larger companies, sectoral organisations, technology brokers and all other relevant structures will be addressed as well. The activities and services will be provided through collaboration with the IRC Net and the relevant organisations in Bulgaria and will encompass but will not be limited to surveys, sectoral meetings, technology brokerage events, technology audits, company visits, provision of specialised consultations, TTT related and i nformation services. To stimulate the creation of favourable innovation environment for development of the domestic industry IRC?BG will collaborate with policy makers, government and non-government organisations. For this purpose the Pool of Experts to IR C?BG has been expanded into an Expert Council on Innovation, which includes high-rank representatives of all stakeholders to the innovation process. The EU policy in the field of research and innovation will be promoted as well. IRC-BG will offer its servi ces on the whole territory of the country and in Europe through: its main office in Sofia, the networks of the consortium partners and the networks of the partnering organisations.
