Boosting Smart Specialization through R&I Synergies - webinar during 18th European Week of Regions and Cities
Tue 13, October 13, 2020
14:30-16:00 CET
Synergies between EU policies are the answer to increasingly integrated strategies and policy goals as well as the need to spend funds more efficiently. The Green Deal has given fresh impetus for more coherent political strategies to tackle Europe’s most pressing challenges. Regions increasingly seek synergies between different R&I instruments to pursue regional transformation goals. In particular, synergies between Cohesion Policy and Horizon Europe serve as a catalyst. To this end, Smart Specialisation can act as a key strategic framework in the context of the Green Deal. This workshop discusses the added value of R&I synergies and highlights transferable regional examples. It facilitates an active exchange to boost interregional dialogue.
