Periodic Reporting for period 1 - EEN INNOS (New extended EEN innovation support service for innovative SMEs in Serbia)

Okres sprawozdawczy: 2017-01-01 do 2018-12-31

Podsumowanie kontekstu i ogólnych celów projektu

Lack of innovation management capacity is an important barrier for creating an economic impact (competitiveness, growth and jobs) from innovation activities in SMEs in Serbia. Innovation is widely recognised as a mean for companies to become more competitive and successful. Therefore, the general objective of the project EEN InnoS is to increase the overall market performance of the selected, high innovative Serbian SMEs, through enhancing their innovation performances.

Taking into account that EEN Serbia had experience in implementing Action “Establishing services enhancing the innovation management capacity of SME's in the Enterprise Europe Network“(acronym EEN Inno)2 in 2014, but also the project “Extended EEN innovation support service for innovative SMEs in Serbiа)” in 2016. Project for 2017-2018 envisages that the group of 30 the most eligible SMEs regarding innovation performancewill be selected, among the nearly 180 firms in the databases available from the previous EU funded projects, Innovation fund beneficiaries and other relevant resources.Also the experience in the last Action indicated that one of the key successful factors of the Action is commitment of the companies to work with KAM and innovation experts. Therefore, pre-selected companies will be asked for the fully commitment in working with the KAM, coaches and innovation experts.
