Descripción del proyecto
Servicios de apoyo a la innovación para las pymes catalanas
Las pequeñas y medianas empresas (pymes) de la Comunidad Autónoma de Cataluña (España) recibirán un gran impulso en su capacidad de gestión de la innovación. El proyecto financiado con fondos europeos INNCAT2021 describirá los servicios ofrecidos en el contexto de las actividades de apoyo a la innovación del programa Horizonte 2020 y demostrará la capacidad de la Agencia para la Competitividad de la Empresa de Cataluña (ACCIÓ) para prestar estos servicios. Los servicios se prestarán a las pymes beneficiarias del proyecto piloto mejorado del Consejo Europeo de Innovación y a aquellas pymes con un alto potencial de internacionalización y actividades de innovación significativas. Además, ACCIÓ propone más de ciento diez servicios para mejorar la capacidad de gestión de la innovación de las pymes.
Objetivo
INNCAT 2021 describes the services offered in the context of Horizon 2020 innovation support activities and the enhance European Innovation Council (EIC) pilot, with the objective of enhancing Catalan SMEs’ innovation management capacity. The current proposal fully describes these services and proves ACCIÓ’s capacity to successfully deliver them. The services will be provided to two specific groups of SMEs: beneficiaries of the EIC and SMEs with significant innovation activities and a high potential for internationalisation. As the current coordinator of the Catalan node of the EEN (also for 2020-2021), ACCIÓ is specialised in promoting innovation and internationalisation among SMEs and has implemented several successful programmes over the last 20 years. The experience obtained, especially since the implementation of the first INNCAT pilot in 2014, has given to our team of experts a deeper knowledge of these services.
ACCIÓ proposes that a minimum of 110 services will be closed in the period of 2020-2021 for enhancing the innovation management capacity of SMEs. It is 42% more services than INNCAT1516.
The proposed staff is fully committed to deliver the proposed services and is trained in the IMPR3ove methodology and Innovation Health Check (IHC) and have broad and extensive expertise in innovation and business support and, management. Moreover, 6 of the proposed 9 staff members have intervened in the implementation of INNCAT for the delivery of KAM and IMPR3ove services during 2014-2016. Therefore, they are fully capable to deliver the services described and successfully advise SMEs.
For this period, the project will build on the experience acquired since 2014 to obtain more impact on cases.
