Project description

Development and innovation for Balearic Islands SMEs

The Balearic Islands are among the most popular destinations in the western Mediterranean. The aim of the EU-funded IBINNO project is to empower the innovation capacity of the Balearic SMEs. Building a more efficient connection of stakeholders, it will increase the efficiency and effectiveness of investments in research, development and innovation. Specifically, the project will reach out to the beneficiaries of SME Instrument, Fast Track to Innovation and Future and Emerging Technologies - Open programmes, as well as SMEs with a high potential of internationalisation. By integrating Horizon 2020 and COSME programme activities, the project will serve as an access point to the innovation system, which will be covered by the Balearic Islands Enterprise Network B2EN consortium.

Objective

The overall IBINNO project objective is the establishment of a feasible and effective service for enhancing the innovation management capacity of SMEs in the Balearic Islands region. This will benefit the smart growth in the European Union by increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of investments in research, development and innovation and by contributing to a better and more efficient connection of stakeholders in the innovation fabric.

The work is plan based on two work packages conducted for the two types of service that will be offered to two different groups of companies:
• Beneficiaries of the SME Instrument, FTI and FET-Open.
• SMEs with significant innovation activities and/ or a high potential for internationalisation.

IBINNO H2020 envisages a reinforced link with the B2EN COSME, and by combining both programme support, the B2EN Consortium in the Balearic Islands will become a one-stop-shop for business and innovation support along the entire value chain. The Consortium will integrate both H2020 and COSME programme activities implementing a common client-centric approach on a “hub and spoke model” structure and applying the Network client journey when necessary.

IBINNO will act as access point to the innovation and internationalization system in the Balearic Islands region, which will be in this new period covered by Balearic Islands Enterprise Network B2EN consortium, embedding the EEN innovation services in the regional innovation ecosystem.
