Description du projet
Stimuler la croissance des PME en Europe
Ces dernières années, le réseau Entreprise Europe (EEN) a ouvert la voie à une nouvelle génération de PME européennes résilientes et innovantes. Malheureusement, de nombreuses PME ont été freinées par leur manque de capacités de gestion de l’innovation. Il s’agit d’un obstacle si important qu’il est classé au deuxième rang, juste derrière le manque de ressources financières. Dans ce contexte, le projet INNOVACCION, financé par l’UE, fournira une gamme de services améliorant la gestion de l’innovation des PME européennes. Pour y parvenir, il prévoit de mettre à profit l’expérience que l’IVACE et INFO MURCIA, membres de l’EEN-SEIMED, ont acquise au fil des années en matière d’accompagnement des PME.
Objectif
The project aims to establish services enhancing the innovation management capacity (EIMC) of SME's of the Enterprise Europe Network.

Horizon 2020’s SME-instrument foresees offering mentoring and coaching services to beneficiaries to address the need of SMEs of consulting service offers enhancing the innovation management capacity.
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:
