Networks, collective learning and RTD in Regionally-Clustered High-Technology SMEs

Objective

This thematic network will investigate the role and importance of regional and European-wide research and technological linkages and networks in the evolution and competitiveness of regional clusters of high-technology SMEs. It will also assess the significance of collective learning processes operating within the regional scientific, research and professional labour market.

Issues to be analysed in the six workshops to be organised (two per year):

- To assess European regional clusters of RTD intensive SME evolution and types of specialisation and influence of policy initiatives.
- To investigate different focus of networking SMEs - university/research institutes - large firms.
- To evaluate the importance of collective learning on regional labour market.

The results of this thematic network are expected to enhance understanding, based on European-wide comparative analysis of processes of regionaly-clustered RTD-intensive SME growth and RTD networking.
