Podsumowanie kontekstu i ogólnych celów projektu

- identifying and addressing gaps in the innovation management capacity of Thuringian SMEs in a systematic and professional way

Prace wykonane od początku projektu do końca okresu sprawozdawczego oraz najważniejsze dotychczasowe rezultaty

The consortium has provided KAM Services to all 3 SME instrument beneficiaries from Thuringia during the 2017-2018 project period.

There were no successful proposers for Fast Track to Innovation or FET open calls yet.

EIMC services have been provided to 14 companies from Thuringia coming from various sectors (IT, energy, smart textiles, life sciences, environment, transport & logistics and sustainable construction).

Innowacyjność oraz oczekiwany potencjalny wpływ (w tym dotychczasowe znaczenie społeczno-gospodarcze i szersze implikacje społeczne projektu)

Regarding KAM services it can be stated, that from our perspective, phase 2 beneficiaries (which we were working with for the first time in this period) are really keen to cooperate in order to make the most out of the coaching.
The improved communication of professional innovation management as an important and integrated precondition for being ready for growth as well as for going international has definitely paid off.
The results of the project reflect the capacity building and experiences we made in the previous years. Feedback of our clients and impact assessments show, that the KAM and EIMC services have been integrated into the EEN service portfolio in a sustainable way.
