Descripción del proyecto
Impulso de las acciones de innovación para pymes
Las pequeñas y medianas empresas (pymes) pueden generar competitividad, crecimiento y oportunidades de empleo, pero solo si han alcanzado un elevado nivel de capacidad de gestión de la innovación. Por este motivo, es importante que las pymes reciban los servicios de mentores e instructores. El proyecto financiado con fondos europeos INNOVACTION 2020-21 actuará para ayudar a las pymes en las comunidades autónomas españolas de Valencia y Murcia con el fin de aprovechar las oportunidades del mercado europeo. Concretamente, proporcionará una serie de servicios para ayudarles con transferencia de tecnología, acceso a financiación, asesoramiento en materia de derecho y normas de la Unión Europea, además de financiación para la investigación e información sobre derechos de propiedad intelectual.

their regions.
More recently as members of EEN-SEIMED Network they have both been leading in their Region the provision of services in
