Project description
Increasing innovation skills within SMEs in West Poland
Increasing the innovation capacity of the regional businesses results in economic growth and enhanced competitiveness. The EU-funded KAM2WP2019 project will contribute to and increase the innovation potential and innovation management capacity of SMEs in the West Poland area. The project will be implemented through two specific schemes. In the first, it will deliver key account management to SME beneficiaries of the SME Instrument programme under the Horizon 2020. In the second, the project will help to unlock the innovation potential of promising SMEs capable of growth and successful internationalisation.
Objective
The objective of the project is to contribute to and enhance the innovation potential and innovation management skills within
SMEs in the West Poland area. The project will follow a developed methodology to help the regional businesses to increase
their innovation capacity and to innovate profitably. The project will be implemented via 2 specific schemes: 1) Service ‘Key
account management for SME Instrument beneficiaries’. This service will be aimed at SMEs which will be successful in
applying for the SME Instrument Programme under the Horizon 2020 (Phase I and / or Phase II). Upon the receipt of the
information (potential beneficiary’s contact details) from the EC/ EASME, the project partner will contact the potential
beneficiary in order to explain the service and convince the SME to apply for the coaching scheme. 2) Service: ‘Enhancing
the innovation management capacity of SME’s’. This service will be aimed at promising SMEs capable of growth and
successful internationalisation that have real potential for innovation via proper development of their products, processes,
services or business model but who lack the right skills, knowledge and experience to manage the innovation activities. The
aim of this scheme is to first of all support those SMEs in order to make them unlock their potential for better management of
the processes linked to innovation.
