Competitive Industries and Innovation Program 3
Part 1. FY13-18 Strategy
I. Meeting the Competitiveness Challenge
1. Expanding sustainable sources of income is essential to ending extreme poverty and boosting shared
prosperity. At its heart, the challenge for developing countries is to rapidly create more and better
jobs. Job creation contributes to improved productivity and living standards. It also promotes social
cohesion and political stability. Yet, the task appears daunting.
2. According to the World Bank’s 2013 World Development Report, no fewer than 600 million new jobs
are needed over the next 15 years just to keep pace with the rapid growth of the world’s working-age
population. In Africa and South Asia alone, an average of 1 million jobs per month will need to be
created in the next decade. Countries in Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America and the
Caribbean face similar challenges. The urgency around jobs has been fueled by the slower-than-
expected recovery from the global economic crisis.
3. Policymakers around the world agree that economic growth is a necessary condition for job creation.
They also recognize that macroeconomic and investment climate reforms are a sine qua non of
growth. However, both theory and practice suggest that such reforms do not by themselves lead to
increased investment and employment. More often than not, market and governance failures—
characterized by infrastructure bottlenecks, lack of access to finance and technology, administrative
barriers to entry, and skills gaps—persist within and across specific industries. They in turn forestall
real sector investment and employment growth.
4. Notwithstanding these hurdles, a growing number of developed and developing countries have shown
that progress can be made. They have created jobs by focusing on competitiveness—the ability of
firms to generate new investments and to increase market share in goods and services through
improved productivity. Contemporary competitiveness strategies have gained traction by focusing on
specific industries. They target policies and public investments, catalyze private investments, and
foster innovation systems with a view to growing those industries and therefore, jobs.
5. Effective strategies match the ambition of industry level efforts to country capacities and political
economy realities.1 Key elements include meaningful sector or industry diagnostics;
2 inclusive
dialogue between public and private sectors; strategic prioritization of public investment; sequencing
of reforms across sectors;3 and learning and accountability during implementation.
4 Unlike
traditional industrial policy, more recent efforts rely on open processes to demonstrate results,

manage fiscal costs, and limit risks of capture.5 Success is revealed in the incubation of new firms,
virtuous cycles in the performance of firms, and spillovers to the larger economy.6
Vision and Purpose
6. The World Bank and other development partners such as the European Union (EU), the African,
Caribbean and Pacific Group of States Secretariat (ACP), and the Governments of Austria and
Switzerland recognize the potential of competitive industries and innovation approaches. This multi-
donor partnership, the Competitive Industries and Innovation Program (CIIP), seeks to provide
valuable support to high potential country initiatives, and to expand the global knowledge frontier on
“how to” effectively design and implement competitiveness strategies as part of a new and emerging
growth paradigm.
7. CIIP’s vision is for developing countries to boost shared prosperity and eradicate extreme poverty by
creating 100 million quality jobs by 2030. To realize this vision, the Program helps enhance country
growth and employment prospects by supporting public policies and investments that promote
competitiveness and innovation within and across industries. CIIP achieves impact by mobilizing
global expertise, applying cutting-edge knowledge, and catalyzing investments in support of
transformational projects and frontier knowledge initiatives.
Launch and Operational Roll-Out
8. CIIP was formally launched through establishment of multi-donor and single donor trust funds over
the November 2012-July 2013 period. Within its first year, CIIP moved quickly to approve 12 high
potential country operations that are currently under implementation. These early movers were
selected on a competitive and transparent basis, consistent with CIIP’s Operational Procedures—
Coordination with European Commission and Other Partners.7 In parallel, an ambitious knowledge
agenda is gaining momentum as a result of CIIP’s flagship October 2013 conference, a number of
publications, and training events. The operational and knowledge priorities underpinning CIIP’s
rapid roll-out are reflected in this Strategy and Business Plan (Annex 1). They indicate high demand
for CIIP on the part country clients and their development partners.
Strategy and Business Planning Process
9. CIIP’s strategy development and business planning process was launched in earnest at the 1st Steering
Committee Meeting in Brussels in September 2013. What followed were a series of formal and
informal consultations with donor partners, country clients, leading thinkers (including members of
the CIIP “brain trust”), and World Bank operational staff and senior management. In addition, the
CIIP team sought early feedback from Steering Committee members during a December 2013 visit to
Brussels, Berne, and Vienna. The final Strategy and FY14 Interim Business Plan has been reviewed
by World Bank management prior to submission to the CIIP partners for review. Their endorsement
of the plan is sought at the 2nd
Steering Committee Meeting in Vienna on February 19, 2013.
10. This document provides a shared vision and approach to achieving the main objectives set out in the
two trust fund agreements and the Administrative Agreement. The accompanying Interim Business
Plan explains how the strategy is being implemented over the course of CIIP’s first year. Going
forward, the FY15 Annual Business Plan for CIIP will be progressively aligned with the Bank’s own
planning cycle—as required by the Bank’s trust fund policies—to enhance oversight and

are periodically updated, in consultation with the partners, to reflect the evolving needs of the program and good practice.

transparency.8 The FY15 plan will be submitted for review and approval over the July-September
2014 period, and will include a retrospective on the previous year’s achievements including the
management of resources, other aspects of program implementation, and operational results (based on
indicators identified in the CIIP results framework).
II. Operational Strategy
Emerging Competitive Industries Approaches
11. In recent years, a number of countries have experimented with various implementation modalities to
correct market and governance failures within and across industries: for instance, economic zones,
growth poles, value chain development, city-level competitiveness strategies, and innovation systems.
Each of these modalities integrates and sequences basic elements of private sector development:
regulatory and business environment reforms, public investment in basic and industrial infrastructure
as well as skills development, institutional strengthening of public agencies and cluster institutions,
and catalytic mechanisms to enhance access to finance for private firms.
12. At the heart of these efforts is a new growth paradigm that seeks to motivate collective action by
public and private actors at the industry level, and to forge linkages to the larger domestic economy
through cross-sectoral and spatially-targeted efforts. Their innovative aspects lie in the ability to
bundle and deliver support to industries in a cost-effective manner; to coordinate macro, mezzo, and
micro-level reforms; and to convene public and private sector actors. In the process, such
interventions promise economies of scope and scale, as well as magnified impact. Increased private
sector investment, greater entry of new firms, higher productivity in select industries will result in
positive spillovers to the broader economy and significant sustainable job growth.9
13. At the same time, such approaches can be complex and challenging to implement. The associated
risks can be managed through programmatic design, prioritization of activities (for example, through
sector sequencing), use of innovative fiscal and financial instruments (for example, challenge and
matching grants, risk management instruments, supplier development programs); and reliance on
third party monitoring and short feedback loops. In addition, such interventions require considerably
more resources during their design and implementation, a heavy emphasis on private and public
sector capacity building, and a keen awareness of political economy dynamics.

Competitive Industries and Innovation Program 6
How CIIP Adds Value
14. CIIP’s added value to country and global efforts to boost shared prosperity and eradicate extreme poverty
is three-fold. First and foremost, it provides countries with integrated solutions for the design and
implementation of industry-level competitiveness initiatives in high potential sectors. These solutions in
turn motivate investment, enhance firm level productivity, enable value chain integration and cluster
growth, and create jobs. Second, it pushes the knowledge frontier on “what works” in competitiveness
and innovation by sharing lessons in real time from its active country engagements and by motivating
cutting edge operational research across its global network of academic, policy, and industry actors.
Third, CIIP raises the awareness of practitioners on contemporary industrial policy across countries.
15. To this end, CIIP initiatives are designed with the following characteristics:
Transformational Impact: CIIP-financed country operations focus on sectoral and spatial entry
points with high potential for transformational job growth based on industry prioritization
scenarios. Similarly, CIIP knowledge activities aim to impact the dialogue among global thought
leaders and regional actors through cutting edge operational research and high profile events.
Cross-Sectoral Design: Industry-level constraints as well as their remedies are inherently cross-
sectoral. For instance, a cluster of firms may be more acutely constrained by poor access to
electricity and transport infrastructure relative to their access to finance and skilled personnel.
CIIP country operations tackle these binding constraints through well-sequenced and coordinated
public and private actions. The resulting economies of scope and scale enhance the likelihood of
impact on firm-level competitiveness. Over time, cross-sectoral efforts can be strengthened with
advancements in knowledge on the design of coordination mechanisms such as delivery units and
subnational capital grants.
Efficiency and Timeliness: When they open, windows of opportunity to foster competitive
industries must be seized. CIIP financing enhances the rapid response capability of the World
Bank Group and its development partners across a range of countries. It also provides the critical
mass of support—for instance, in the form of technical assistance or just-in-time analytics—
needed to manage the risks typically associated with cross-sectoral operations. Through its
multiple country engagements, CIIP aims to capture, disseminate, and apply knowledge in real-
time of ‘what works’ within and across industries.
Complementarity and Jointness: In keeping with CIIP’s role as a new and emerging
partnership, country operations are developed jointly with partners. CIIP resources and expertise
are leveraged through existing lending or analytical activities supported in the context of World
Bank Group Country Partnership Frameworks. Activities are developed jointly with—and often
co-financed by—CIIP partners as well as private sector actors at the country level. The global
knowledge agenda also fully leverages expertise across CIIP’s network of experts and
practitioners, the World Bank Group and the other partners’ staff. Joint approaches are intended
to limit duplication and redundancy, and also to enhance the quality of knowledge and operations.
Sustainable: It is important that CIIP projects are not only transformational but also
sustainable—that is, their stream of benefits continue to accrue beyond the life of a particular
operation. To promote institutional, social, and environmental sustainability, CIIP projects
follow best practice safeguards policies and procedures, including those governing World Bank
Group operations. For similar reasons, CIIP supports programmatic—rather than piecemeal—
knowledge efforts that add value across the country, industry, and regional levels.
Competitive Industries and Innovation Program 7
Results Framework
16. CIIP’s theory of change holds that the bundling and delivery of support for basic elements of private
sector development (see para 11) in an industry context can help accelerate impact. As Chart 1
illustrates, these integrative solutions help to transform financial, institutional, and knowledge inputs
into an enabling environment for industry growth. As industries become more competitive and
innovative, they attract private investment, spur productivity gains, and generate jobs and social
spillovers. In this way, CIIP operations help boost shared prosperity and eradicate extreme poverty.
17. The above-mentioned results chain is supported by a more detailed results framework (Annex 2).
The results framework ensures that CIIP is achieving its overarching objectives by tracking four tiers
of indicators. Tier 1 (impact) indicators measure CIIP’s triple bottom line of investment, jobs, and
industry growth, and also track social spillovers. These impacts derive from improvements in the
quality of policies, the performance of public and private institutions, and access to basic services and
finance: these are tracked by Tier 2 (outcome) indicators. Outcomes are obtained in part from Tier 3
(output) indicators, which track policies, services, institutional capacities, and financial and hard
assets that are produced by CIIP’s menu of integrative solutions (for example, economic zones,
growth poles, value chains, and competitive cities). These solutions and associated levels of financial
and capacity building are tracked using Tier 4 (input) indicators. To the extent possible, these
indicators are standardized across CIIP-financed projects.
18. In keeping with CIIP’s theory of change, the following impact indicators are used to assess progress
towards the achievement of its high level objectives:
Indicator 1 – Gross number of jobs (disaggregated by gender and age cohort)
Indicator 2 – US$ value of private investment leveraged (of which, domestic share)
Indicator 3 – Net number of new firms (of which, share headed by women)
Indicator 4 – Number of people with access to improved services
19. These data will be discussed in annual reports and other key documents. It is important to
acknowledge the myriad attribution questions associated with CIIP’s cross-sectoral and policy-based
interventions. Therefore, in its reporting on results, CIIP emphasizes its contribution to impact
through its key inputs and relevant outputs (tracked by Tier 3 and 4 indicators). Where feasible,
country examples inform a narrative of different country trajectories for enhancing competitiveness
and creating jobs. Program reporting draws on the project-level efforts to track relevant Tiers 1-4
indicators based on CIIP’s tailored response to country constraints.

Part 2. Interim FY14 Business Plan
1. Since its first proposals were reviewed in March 2013, CIIP has rapidly grown a portfolio of high
potential country operations and a rich global knowledge agenda. By the 1st Steering Committee
Meeting in September 2013, the Program had institutionalized most elements of a robust
implementation framework – its machinery for delivering on its operational strategy. This interim
FY14 Business Plan explains how CIIP works, its program commitments and early deliverables, and the
priorities that guide its efforts over the remainder of FY14.
I. Implementation Framework—How It Works
2. To deliver on its operational strategy, CIIP relies on a robust implementation framework, described
below. The key elements of this framework include: CIIP’s multi-window funding structure, its
resource allocation framework, staffing and support, monitoring and evaluation, as well as strategic
communications and partnerships.
Funding Structure
3. CIIP funding is structured around two World Bank-executed trust funds. The Multi-Donor Trust
Fund (MDTF: TF071975), supported by the governments of Austria and Switzerland as well as the
EU, was established on November 15, 2012. The Single-Donor Trust Fund (SDTF: TF072037),
financed through the EU European Development Fund (EDF) and hence with the specific geographic
focus on the African, Caribbean, and Pacific states, was established on July 18, 2013. Taken
together, both funds allow CIIP to finance operations across most geographic regions as well as a
wide array of global knowledge activities. As Trustee and Administrator for both the funds, the
World Bank is responsible for program development, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation.
The Bank also is responsible for secretariat functions that support CIIP as a unique partnership.
4. While the above-mentioned fund structure is discreet for accounting purposes, CIIP resources are
managed seamlessly across the two trust funds in order to ensure predictable, transparent, and efficient
financing of both country and global knowledge priorities. To this end, CIIP uses a set of financing
windows under the trustee level parent funds for the MDTF and SDTFs respectively: (i) a Country
Operations Window for high potential country operations, (ii) a Knowledge Management Window to
support cutting-edge analytics as well as dissemination and networking activities; and (iii) a Program
Management Window that support secretariat functions.10
5. In keeping with good practice, funds’ flows through these windows and associated child grants are
aligned with the pay-in cycle for donor contributions at the trustee level. As of January 30, 2014, 70
percent of MDTF commitments and 50 percent of SDTF commitments were paid into the trustee fund,
and 96 percent of paid-in funds were committed. Nearly US$15 million in pending tranche
contributions from the EU & Switzerland will be needed over FY15-16 to allow sufficient time for
commitment and execution by the FY18 program completion date.
10 Child trust funds under each window are established to finance CIIP projects approved by the Steering Committee. Similar funds
have been established to fund “support services” comprising portfolio-wide actions on M&E, strategic communications, training and
learning, and project development TA (Annex 7c). These funds also support sensitization and training of clients from countries at
early stages of engagement on competitiveness issues (Part 2, para 8).
Competitive Industries and Innovation Program 10
Resource Allocation Framework
6. The CIIP allocation framework prioritizes the use of scarce donor resources (i) at the program/trustee
level, between operational and knowledge priorities; (ii) at the window level, between countries and
between knowledge themes; and (iii) at the project level, between individual operational and
knowledge proposals. This framework, described below, aims to ensure that CIIP funds are used
efficiently and effectively.
7. Program-Level: CIIP’s overall resource envelope is split between country operations and global
knowledge initiatives. Since transformational country initiatives are intended to drive program
results, CIIP aims to allocate 75 percent of its funds (excluding program management costs) to its
Country Operations Window. The remaining 25 percent are assigned to the Knowledge Management
Window to finance global and regional initiatives.11
8. Window-Level: Resources for country operations are allocated using a multi-track engagement system
based on country readiness (Annex 3). Readiness is evidenced by leadership interest, track-record on
competitiveness issues, institutional capacity, and level of organization of the private sector.
Countries with limited exposure to competitiveness issues are best served by Track 1 (which
supports awareness-raising and training financing under the Knowledge Window) or Track 2
(which finances preliminary scoping missions and dialogue under the Country Operations
Window). Track 1-2 activities by definition involve affirmative efforts to foster future new client
countries, for example, in some African, Caribbean, and Pacific countries. A provisional
allocation for affirmative efforts under Tracks 1 and 2 over the program life are made under the
Knowledge Management and Country Operations Windows respectively.
Remaining resources under the Country Operations Window are eligible, on a demand-driven
basis, for Track 3 (substantial stakeholder engagement, intensive market analytics, and pilot
interventions) and Track 4 (comprehensive efforts to support design and implementation of high
potential, industry level interventions). Track 3 and 4 countries are those with deep leadership
commitment and broad base of support, mature competitiveness and innovation strategies, and
bankable interventions.
The bulk of funds under the Knowledge Management Window support relevant research on
competitiveness and innovation. To help identify activities that would push the knowledge
frontier, CIIP relies on a tripartite governance structure comprising Bank and donor operational
teams,12
the World Bank’s Competitive Industries “brain trust” of scholars, and where necessary,
industry leaders. While half these resources help identify lessons on “nuts and bolts”
implementation issues, the other half is devoted to applied research that advances the state of
theory and empirical research on competitiveness. These themes, for instance, the effectiveness
of industrial policy instruments and the determinants of growth at the industry and cluster level,
are identified in consultation with members of brain trust and industry leaders.
9. Project-Level. Both country and knowledge priorities are organized into projects and selected on a
rolling basis in accordance with project approval and coordination processes illustrated in Annex 4,
consistent with the Operational Procedures. Selection criteria include inter alia alignment with CIIP
objectives and industry level approaches; consistency with standard fiduciary and operational
11 The current breakdown between Country and Knowledge Windows is 72 and 28 percent respectively. 12 Brain trust members are Dani Rodrik (Institute of Advanced Studies, Princeton), Ricardo Haussman (Harvard University),
Charles Sabel (Columbia University), Mushtaq Khan (University of London), Francis Fukuyama (Stanford University), and Alan
Gelb (Center for Global Development, Washington DC).
Competitive Industries and Innovation Program 11
requirements (including Paris Declaration Principles on Aid Effectiveness); potential for
transformational impact (for instance, investment generation and job creation); and coordination with
donors. Approvals follow a series of consultations with private and public sector stakeholders,
internal reviews within the World Bank, and a formal peer review by the CIIP Joint Steering
Committee. These rigorous project review processes are intended to ensure selectivity, quality-at-
entry, relevance of design, and likely impact. Once approved, proposed interventions are financed
through child trust funds.13
10. Ultimately, resource allocations are contingent on performance. Once CIIP proposals are approved, a
child trust fund is created, a disbursement timeline and annual grant tranching schedule is established
based on planned activities. Tranching is then based on fund utilization and activity completion, as
monitored in the World Bank’s Grant Reporting and Monitoring (GRM) system. In the event of non-
performance, tranches may be withheld until course corrections are made or CIIP projects are
restructured. In some cases, resources may be re-pooled and reallocated within the Country
Operations or Knowledge Management Windows.
Staffing and Support
11. CIIP’s rapid launch and its ongoing success depend on a robust support structure and high quality
staff. A small self-standing secretariat ensures coherence across the portfolio, alignment with partners’
priorities, as well as lean and quality management. It is responsible for program strategy and
management, financial management, knowledge and learning, monitoring and evaluation, strategic
communications, and risk management. In CIIP’s first year of implementation, the secretariat has
responded flexibly to CIIP’s dynamic and evolving needs—for instance, program launch, development
of this strategy and business plan, project development and review, donor engagement, and support for
high profile knowledge activities. In addition to experienced secretariat staff, the CIIP team now
includes 5 additional global experts that actively support Bank project teams in country dialogue,
analytics, as well as operational design and implementation (Annex 5).
12. The CIIP team is embedded within the World Bank Group’s recently established Trade and
Competitiveness (T&C) Global Practice, which places competitiveness issues at the forefront of country
dialogue on private sector development. CIIP aims to fully utilize these Bank Group institutional
resources to further its goals. For instance, it works through 54 competitive industries staff affiliates and
73 secondary affiliates currently supporting World Bank operations around the world. It also draws on
the knowledge sharing, training, and e-learning capacities of T&C and other Global Practices to expand
its client base and enrich its country dialogue. CIIP is further deepening its collaboration with the
World Bank’s Development Economic Group on research relating to competitiveness and innovation.
13 Child trust funds under CIIP’s Country Operations Window are linked to—and coded under—either World Bank Investment
Lending (IBRD/IDA, SF, RE, IF) or Non-Lending Technical Assistance (NL-TA) product-lines. Child trust funds under the
Knowledge Management Window are coded as Economic & Sector Work (ESW), Research Services (RF), Impact Evaluation (IE)
or External Training (TE). Product-line codes determine the types of quality review process for TF inputs and outputs. CIIP’s
Steering Committee will be appropriately consulted during these processes.
Competitive Industries and Innovation Program 12
Monitoring and Evaluation
13. CIIP’s monitoring and evaluation (M&E) objectives are three-fold: (i) to foster results-orientation in
both country operations and knowledge activities; (ii) to promote accountability to country
stakeholders and development partners; and (iii) to encourage learning in real-time. Discussed below
are the design and implementation of project and program M&E, as well as their intended uses:
Project M&E for CIIP operations build on the mainstream of development practice as well as
existing World Bank Group results measurement systems. As such, these operations contain
project-level results frameworks that delineate causal links, from inputs to outcomes. They
identify standardized and customized indicators with baselines and targets, as well as the M&E
instruments and resources needed to measure and verify them over the project life. Given the
cross-sectoral nature of competitiveness operations, project level M&E will need to rely on and
strengthen country M&E systems. These include traditional public sector evaluation systems as
well as demand-side measures—for instance, third party monitoring, public-private dialogue
mechanisms, and firm-level surveys—that give voice to private sector and local stakeholders.
These mechanisms promote feedback loops and motivate mid-course corrections. Additionally,
for discrete components of CIIP operations such as SME matching grant schemes or city-level
capital grants, impact evaluation methods should help to identify good practice.
Program M&E aims to assess the CIIP’s overall efficiency and effectiveness across country
operations and global knowledge activities. Drawing on the CIIP results framework (Part 1, para
16-17), the secretariat regularly aggregates project-level data on inputs, outputs, and outcomes.
Efficiency data on program-wide processes and portfolio quality are also collected. Periodic
program evaluations in turn rely on both quantitative and qualitative field based assessments to
test causal links, to assess relevance of program objectives and design, and to review achievement
of discrete objectives. From time to time, CIIP undertakes reviews of emerging operational
topics, for instance, the sustainability of economic zones, or the efficacy of matching grants.
Where appropriate, reviews rely on meta-evaluations of project-level impact evaluations.
Reporting
14. CIIP ensures timely submission and disclosure of financial and operational reports at the project and
program levels. At the project level, Bank operational teams provide regular updates through the
GRM cycle on completion of activities and utilization of trust funds. In parallel, the Bank’s
Implementation Status Reports provide detailed, semi-annual published reports on the physical and
financial performance of lending operations to which CIIP projects are linked. CIIP aims to fully
leverage these institution-wide Bank Group processes to support its own reporting and portfolio
review objectives (Box 1). A newly launched CIIP website gives partners the ability to directly track
project and program-level progress and results (Box 2).
Competitive Industries and Innovation Program 13
Box 1: Portfolio Review and Annual Report Preparation Process
Between June and July each year, World Bank task team leaders are required to report on the
implementation of child trust funds through the GRM system. They are also required to complete the
annual Letter of Representation (LOR) exercise to confirm compliance with the Bank’s fiduciary
obligations in the expensing of the trust fund. GRM and related data consolidated in the World Bank’s
annual trust fund report, and LORs are consolidated in annual single audit report to donors. The CIIP
secretariat will conduct an annual portfolio review using GRM reports, and synthesizes them into an
Annual Report & Business Plan that covers progress through June of each year. Problem projects are
addressed in the report and when necessary, recommendations are made to adjust the size and schedule
of tranches. The report is presented to the Steering Committee over July-September each year.
Communications and Partnerships
15. Effective communication among CIIP’s partners and its broad range of public and private
stakeholders is critical to program success. Using a wide range of corporate tools and channels, CIIP
ensures the visibility of both individual contributing partners and the partnership as a whole. It also
fosters its global network of practitioners and experts, and promotes operational learning. Described
below, these three pillars of CIIP communication are supported by a wide range of tools and activities
listed in Annex 6:
16. As part of its visibility efforts, CIIP has developed an official logo (in the header above) that identifies
the contributing partners. It is prominently displayed on official print and online products, marketing
and press information, knowledge products and formal publications, visual, on-line and multimedia
materials. Common visibility rules, branding, and communications standards developed for CIIP are
systematically employed for local outreach and communications efforts in client countries. Templates
for promotional, knowledge, and outreach materials are shared with World Bank Group operational
teams and are posted on the CIIP website for easy access (Box 2). Active participation of partner
representatives is sought at global knowledge and country project events. Strategic communications
across the Bank Group, development community, and networks of competitiveness experts aim to
further raise CIIP’s global profile.
Box 2: CIIP Partnership Website
The CIIP partnership website provides detailed information on CIIP country operations and knowledge
initiatives. It aspires to become a comprehensive and interactive online resource on industry focused
efforts in private sector development. The website aims to serve multiple purposes. Most immediately,
it provides key materials that are relevant to the smooth function of the Steering Committee.
Contributing partners are given access to confidential information on operations and knowledge
products in real-time through a password-protected space. The space allows partners to deliberate and
comment on project design and implementation, or on various knowledge products. They can also
monitor progress to date. In addition, the website supports knowledge exchange across networks of
practitioners and thought leaders on cutting edge research, good practice or innovative approaches, and
results from competitiveness strategies around the world.
17. A second communications pillar is to foster a global network of World Bank and donor partner staff
working on competitiveness issues, public and private sector actors, as well as academics and
policymakers around the world. CIIP organizes periodic high profile knowledge and training events
(including an annual conference) and actively disseminates knowledge products to this ever
expanding network. It also employs a range of channels and interactive tools (for example, a self-
standing website as well as social, print, and broadcast media) to support networking.
Competitive Industries and Innovation Program 14
18. Thirdly, CIIP aims to promote operational learning through active knowledge sharing among project
teams, partners, and country stakeholders. Emerging lessons and good practice notes are
disseminated by CIIP to teams working on competitive industries projects in a wide array of
countries. Seminars, presentations, and “clinics” provide opportunities for project teams to share
innovations and seek feedback on project design and implementation approaches (for instance, on
economic zones, growth poles, and matching grant schemes). In addition, embedded in most CIIP
operations are public-private dialogue mechanisms and harmonized donor processes all of which in
principle enable partnerships and open dialogue on competitiveness issues. Such in-country
processes can be enriched by timely disclosure and publication of evaluation results on industry level
efforts. These efforts in turn can encourage feedback loops and virtuous cycles.
19. To be effective in its communications efforts, CIIP will strategically focus its outreach efforts on
three key audiences—the CIIP brain trust, country policy-makers, and industry leaders. It is
envisaged that brain trust members would help keep competitiveness and jobs at the forefront of the
global development agenda, while galvanizing global networks of practice. Their efforts would be
complemented by awareness-raising during high profile events across the development community;
extensive use of CIIP’s new web platform (www.theciip.org); and leveraging of the Bank Group’s
extensive network of country offices around the world. Given the importance of visibility issues,
CIIP communications staff will also coordinate closely with counterparts in donor agencies.

II. Program Implementation
FY13-14 Commitments and Disbursements
20. Rapid activity and portfolio growth reflect considerable demand for CIIP initiatives. A total of
US$20.34 million— or 96 percent of paid-in funds—have been committed to 16 approved projects and
portfolio-wide support services. Seven of these grants, amounting to US$6.91 million in commitments,
are helping to mobilize significant investment from official sources, including US$617.6 million in
World Bank lending.14
21. Among major geographic regions, Africa has the largest share of current commitments with 4 projects
totaling US$4.235 million. Eastern Europe and Central Asia follows with 5 projects totaling US$3.559
million. Latin America and the Caribbean as well as East Asia and the Pacific each have one project—
one in Haiti (US$1.8 million) and the other in Vietnam (US$1.0 million) respectively. In the Middle
East and North Africa Region, a project amounting to US$0.78 million has been approved in Tunisia.15
22. As noted earlier, commitments are made under both the financing windows of the MDTF and SDTF. A
total of US$6.91 million have been made under the SDTF Country Operations Window. Another
US$5.57 million in commitments have been made under the MDTF Country Operations Window. In
addition, US$4.41 million in commitments have been made to MDTF Knowledge Window including
for support services (M&E, strategic communications, learning, and training).
23. Disbursement projections through the end of FY15 remain robust and will be further bolstered by
tranching. While there is still headroom to respond to growing demand, early efforts to support
implementation of active projects would benefit CIIP’s young portfolio. Starting in FY15, new
commitments will be made primarily under the MDTF Knowledge Management and the SDTF Country
Operations Windows (Charts 2-3).

14 Data do not include non-lending resources mobilized by Bank operations. The overall leveraging impact of these CIIP projects, in
terms of public and private investment, is expected to become evident within 1-2 years. 15 Global activities cover 4 knowledge products (US$2.988 million) and support services.

Early Achievements and Emerging Themes
24. In its first year, CIIP has experienced a high level of demand for its support. It also made progress
towards early results, especially on the knowledge front. An October 2013 CIIP flagship conference,
“Making Growth Happen,” provided an important opportunity for the development and academic
communities to take stock of the current thinking on industrial policy and competitiveness. A joint
World Bank-OECD initiative, the Innovation Policy Platform (IPP), promotes knowledge exchange
through an interactive platform that helps researchers and practitioners identify good practice
approaches to build innovation systems. CIIP has also supported training of policy leaders and
practitioners through the Competitiveness Summer School. It has published papers and blogs on a
number of themes—from site selection for industrial parks to agribusiness in Africa (Annex 8). These
knowledge initiatives are expected to influence country efforts as well as academic research.16
25. Even though CIIP-financed country efforts are still in their early stages of design and implementation,
indications are that these competitive industry approaches can gain traction. Participatory processes
and market analytics (Tier 3-4 indicators) are being used to support sector selection, for example, in
Cote d’Ivoire and Tunisia. Similarly, spatially-targeted public investments are being planned and
augmented in Ethiopia, Haiti, Tanzania, and Sierra Leone. The establishment of public agencies in
Georgia is supporting smart specialization and innovation systems. As implementation proceeds,
CIIP anticipates progress on Tier 1 and 2 indicators such as improvements in business regulation,
enhanced efficiency of public spending, leveraging of private investments, and job expansion.
FY14 Priorities
26. The development of CIIP’s implementation framework and the launch of several CIIP projects have set
the stage for priorities in the interim FY14 plan (Table 1). Over the September 2013-June 2014 period,
CIIP has focused on three priorities – implementation support for active operations; ‘leveling the
playing field’ for small and fragile states; and strengthening stewardship of donor resources:
First, CIIP will focus on implementation to active operations to fully exploit their
transformational potential. Activities will include proactive outreach to country clients and
partners, close monitoring of CIIP grants and associated World Bank operations, and support for
real-time evaluations of selected components. CIIP has set an ambitious target of accelerating
disbursements to 20 percent of overall program commitments. It will also identify flagships from
its portfolio of active projects—that is, those with high potential for learning-by-doing, for
creating demonstration efforts (for example, based on innovative design), and for generating
impact (for example, in terms of job creation). In parallel, a US$1 million cap is proposed on
new commitments for the remainder of the third and fourth quarters of FY14.
Second, CIIP’s hitherto demand-driven focus (Tracks 3-4) will be complemented by affirmative
efforts (Track 1-2) in fragile and small states in the ACP. Approximately US$2 million have been
provisionally allocated for these affirmative efforts over the program life. A regional conference
on competitiveness and industry level efforts in Africa is planned for March 2014. Preparations
for FY15 knowledge events in the small states of the Caribbean and Pacific are also underway.
Taken together, Tracks 1-2 aim to ‘level the playing field’ before additional commitments are
made through Track 3 and 4.
16 For instance, CIIP recently provided inputs to the Invest in Cote d’Ivoire 2014 conference, which was convened by the
country’s president to galvanize its industrialization efforts. The conference brought together over 1500 investors, high level
representatives from multilateral institutions, and officials from several African and European countries. Based on CIIP’s early
engagement, Ivorian leadership has sought ongoing advice on the design of growth poles and value chain development initiatives.
Competitive Industries and Innovation Program 17
Third, CIIP will continue to institutionalize good stewardship practices across the partnership
program inter alia through regular financial and physical reporting, compliance with established
procedures and processes, systematic tranching of disbursements, and communications efforts. In
addition, the secretariat envisages resource mobilization efforts to broaden CIIP’s base of support.

Implications for FY15 and Beyond
27. Middle and lower income countries as well as fragile states are eager to generate quality jobs in their
productive sectors. Demand for CIIP-style country operations continues to grow, as does global
interest in actionable knowledge on competitiveness and innovation strategies. While CIIP has the
capacity to respond in a number of areas, it remains constrained in others. For instance, as Table 1,
there is urgent need for CIIP to develop the financial capacity to respond to demand from South Asian
clients, and possibly augment funding for small and fragile states in the ACP depending on the
success of early Tracks 1-2 efforts.
28. This strategy and interim business plan provides the basis for broadening CIIP’s base of support. Like-
minded donors will be consulted with a view to mobilize an additional US$65-85 million—based on
estimated needs—to support program objectives over FY13-18.
