“Smart Specialisation Strategy” is a mandatory
for Regions…
Regulatory aspects:
SSS3 is an “Ex ante conditionality for Regions”
SSS3 should be in place before allocating OPs R&I funding (SF-ESF)
exceptions.. but No later than 2016 …or suspension of payments
Financial aspects:
80% RDF resources allocated in R&I, ICT, SMEs, energy efficiency (Competitiveness Regions)
50 % RDF resource allocated in R&I, ICT, SMEs, energy efficiency objective (Convergence-Transition Regions)
Smart Specialisation Strategy (SSS3): An entrepreneurial discovery process based on 4Cs…
Choices select few priorities on the basis of international
specialisation and integration on international value chains avoid
duplication and fragmentation in ERA
Competitive (Constructed) Advantage: mobilize talent by matching
RTD + i and business needs & capacities – entrepreneurial discovery
process
Critical Mass/Clusters develop world class excellence “Human
capital & competitive clusters” across regions and provide arenas
for related variety/cross-sectorial links which drive specialised
technological diversification
Collaborative Leadership efficient innovation systems as a
collective endeavour based on public-private partnership
experimental platform – give voice to un-usual suspects
Regional dimension
& ERA Chairs
Outcome 1.
Increased participation of the “Institution” in Horizon 2020 and other competitive European funding programmes
Outcome 2. Stronger level of interaction with national or regional authorities in
designing and implementing research and innovation Strategies for Smart
Specialisation
!!!! ....This includes interaction with additional stakeholders, e.g. through
clusters and networks to innovative business partners, civil society organisations,
etc., able to contribute to the definition and implementation of regional innovation
strategies

Outcome 3. Operational measures to develop synergies between Cohesion
and research funding in line with SSS3
Synergies H2020-CP
Horizon 2020 will follow closely the emerging Smart Specialisation flagship priorities and will support them through the Horizon 2020 Work Programmes
