Podsumowanie kontekstu i ogólnych celów projektu

The improvement of the Innovation Management Capacities of the European SMEs is essential reinforce the cooperation potential of European SMEs to become more and more competitive into the single market. The provision of individual support on Access to finance to these types of companies is critical and requires the provision of some other advanced and tailored support services: Innovation Property Rights, Technology watch, cooperation and internationalisation, such as the main path along which innovative SMEs will improve their competitiveness in the single market or internationally.

We have achieved the 100% of the initially estimated KAM services for the period 2020/2021, and above the 70% of EIMC services due the COVID situation such as urgent actions for prevention of occupational hazards, labour issues, business model pivoting and access to financial instrument targeting working capital as sales dropped in many sector during and after the confinement.
In this timeframe, the consortium has continued delivering services in a similar way as in 2019, making use of the already known methodologies and tools such as IMPROVE, IHC and CoachCom tools, but also implementing the Digital Innovation Quotient (DIQ), the Key Account Management (KAM) and the Enhancing Innovation Management Capacities (EIMC) services. A novelty during 2021 has been the provision of an additional type of service on sustainability via IMPROVE Academy Customer Sustainability Navigator (CSN).
