Descripción del proyecto
Mejora del crecimiento de las pymes en Europa
En los últimos años, la Red Europea para las Empresas (EEN, por sus siglas en inglés) ha allanado el camino para una nueva generación de pymes europeas resilientes e innovadoras. Por desgracia, muchas pymes se han visto frenadas debido a la ausencia de capacidad de gestión de la innovación. Este es un obstáculo tan grande que ocupa el segundo puesto solo por la falta de recursos financieros. En este contexto, el proyecto financiado con fondos europeos INNOVACCION proporcionará una serie de servicios que mejoren la gestión de la innovación de las pymes europeas. Para ello, se prevé utilizar la experiencia que IVACE e INFO MURCIA, miembros de EEN-SEIMED, han adquirido después de ayudar a pymes a crecer durante años.

Moreover, in a survey undertaken in 2011 for DG Enterprise and Industry, SME´s and SME support organisations considered the inability to manage innovation processes efficiently and effectively as the second most important barrier to SME innovation (after 'lack of financial resources').The two partners of the consortium for the present project, IVACE and INFO MURCIA have both more than 20 years’ experience in providing services of Enhancing innovation capacity to SMEs in their regions.
More recently as members of EEN-SEIMED Network they have both been leading in their Region the provision of services in order to help small business to make the most of the European marketplace. Specifically services provided are supporting:
