OISAIR Establishment of the Open Innovation System

• f the Adriatic-Ionian Region

Innovators Interregional Forum Zagreb, 1st March, 2019 Elena Banci - Area Science Park

Project background

The Adriatic-Ionian area is suffering from:  Low investment in R&D activities  Poor IP protection  Weak technology transfer activities  Strong influence of traditional business  Limited cooperation of science&tech. parks, incubators and clusters  Low entrepreneurial skills and low knowledge about innovation  Wide regional disparities  Limited sectoral/ cross-sectoral specialisations

(Adriatic-Ionian Cooperation Programme 2014-2020)

Need to build up efficient

research and innovation systems

Need to enhance R&D

investment,

Need to develop policies

fostering research and innovation

Need to support cooperation

schemes between territorial institutions, business sector and universities, technological institutes….

Project strategic objective

OISAIR pursues the strategic

• bjective
• f

establishing and developing the Open Innovation System of the Adriatic-Ionian Region, competitive and attractive at regional and macro-regional level.

Oisair specific objectives

• Improve skills and competencies of R&D centers by

assisting the creation of innovation networks beyond borders.

• Stimulate SMEs access to research infrastructures (i.e.

labs) and increase business investments in R&I

• Valorise research results and establish durable links and

synergies between transregional enterprises, research and development centers and research infrastructures.

The OISAIR pillars

• OISAIR Hub

(www.oisair.net)

• Hub&Spoke Model
• OISAIR Network

The OISAIR Hub

• a web-based platform;
• a

virtual environment for the coordination and

• perations of the OISAIR Network;
• an

area for knowledge, innovation, technology, initiatives and opportunities exchange;

• willing to be the innovation marketplace of the

Adriatic-Ionian Region.

The Hub&Spoke model

The OISAIR Hub&Spoke model is a collaborative knowledge and infrastructure sharing system where the transnational Hub and the local Innovation Centers are connected to support transnational innovation in the ADRION area. The Hub : Coordinated by AREA Science Park, the HUB collects and organizes activities, infrastructures & tech platforms and connects the Innovation Centres. The Spokes: local innovation centers providing inputs for innovation demand/offer;

Local assets ,excellences-research infrastructures, incubators, accelerators, specialized innovation services, experienced staff are pooled together to create a lively Hub&Spoke

• rganization able to meet the technology and innovation needs of SMEs at transregional level.

The OISAIR Network

• composed by all project partners;
• established

following a formal Collaboration Agreement among partners and operating according to an operational service charter;

• open

to

• ther
• rganizations

supporting transnational innovation (BSOs, Research institutions…);

The OISAIR multi-level structure

Definition of a Pilot Macro-Regional S3 to identify the priority sectors

• Elaborate a pilot macro-regional S3 with the support of the JRC and upon

confrontation with stakeholders and policy members of the AI region;

• Mapping excellences and specializations in the area;
• Develop a technological foresight according to the areas of specialization;
• Select the specializations/ technology trajectories able to develop

innovation networks (B2B collaborations, B2R value chains) where the transnational collaboration is able to generate added value;

Pilot Macro- Regional S3 Definition and analysis

Pilot Macro-Regional S3 definition

• Elaboration of a Action Plan for the implementation of the Pilot Macro-

Regional S3 in collaboration with stakeholders and policy members to establish the basis for the governance and drive the operations of the OISAIR Network.

• Subscription of a Declaration of Intents by policy makers (ministries, regional

administrations) for the maintenance of the system once the ADRION co- financing has ceased;

• Elaboration of the Adriatic–Ionian HUB business plan;
• Establishment of the OISAIR Network based on a Collaboration Agreement

signed by PPs defining operational objectives, regulating the access to infrastructures, identifying coordination structures;

• Development of the OISAIR Hub as a web

platform, organized in priority sectors aligned to the Pilot S3.

• Identification of targeted innovation services

for the whole network;

• Development of the competencies of the Innovation Centres

staff through dedicated training modules (e-learning/training

• n the job);

 Organization of the transnational call for the valorization of research results on the basis of the POC model, where innovation projects will be developed through transnational R2B collaboration;  Delivery of 10 innovation vouchers (worth 18.500€* each) to the most promising co-development projects embedded into the Adriatic-Ionian RIS3;
