Work performed from the beginning of the project to the end of the period covered by the report and main results achieved so far

EIMC activities were acheived so far in Martinique, thanks to Technopôle Martinique expertise and tools. They have not been implemented yet in Guadeloupe islands, since there is no equivalent partner in Guadeloup Islands. Technopole Martinique is currently identifying suitable partners to implement those activities. Two seems prominsing: technopole Audacia and Synergiles competitiveness cluster. Disccusions are currently underway to define practical arrangements for such a collaboration.
When it comes to KAM activities, they were not implemented since the is no SME Instrument (Phase 1 or 2) winner in the territory addressed.

Progress beyond the state of the art and expected potential impact (including the socio-economic impact and the wider societal implications of the project so far)

in 2015 and 2016, 87 SMEs benefited from EIMC services
