Objectives

The main objective of EURO-COOP is to develop a research and innovation policy impact assessment system at the regional level in order to improve the measurement of the various impacts of regional research and innovation policies. This impact assessment system will be transferable and applicable to all regions in Europe and their different circumstances.

The detailed objectives of the project are:

  • Establishment of a trans-regional management structure on regional innovation policy impact assessment and benchmarking that can assist individual regions to develop own strategies and collaborate on joint strategies;

  • Development of a regional innovation policy impact assessment methodology based on quantitative and qualitative indicators

  • Implementation of the impact assessment methodology in the participating regions; and

  • Development of benchmarking processes and policy recommendations for the use of the impact assessment methodology in all European regions.
