The overall goal of the project is to strengthen competitiveness among manufacturing companies in Skåne and Blekinge for deliveries of products and components to the larger research infrastructures. The project goal is that through the project results participating companies will offer 100 % more quotations linked to research infrastructures, receive significantly more orders and will clearly increase the potential to be an actor and subcontractor to national and international research facilities. The project will analyse suitable components, work with prototype manufacturing together with the companies by assisting with knowledge and materials, promoting increased cooperation between the companies in the program area, strengthening competence for more environmentally adapted manufacturing and creating awareness of gender equality issues. Applicants also intend to support the business community in the region after the end of the project and encourage long-term cooperation.
