This is the good practice's implementation level. It can be national, regional or local.
About this good practice
The public sector demands innovative solutions that are not yet available or not at large scale on the market and thus forces providers to innovate. PPI is well supported on the European level (i.e. Horizon 2020), also various guidance and training tools have already existed for few years. So far, they did not boost the PPI usage in the majority of central European regions because available tools are not customized to national frameworks and regional knowledge hubs are missing. The project will achieve this change by delivering innovative outputs such as 3 thematic PPI2Innovate tools for SMART Health, SMART Energy and SMART ICT fully customized to 6 national institutional frameworks and translated. In addition the project will create 6 regional Competence centers for PPI and their central European network as well as 6 action plans to implement 8 PPI projects in each region. 4 PPI pilots will strengthen linkages to apply a trans-regional “learning by doing approach” and to show successful stories in 4 regions.
Resources needed
Total budget of the project: 1.661.148 EUR
Evidence of success
Published: Transregional study on institutional frameworks, 3 thematic tools in six languages (Smart Health, SMART Energy, SMART ICT), Guidebook for smart PPI tools
