The project will contribute to strengthening the structures among the actors in the regional business and innovation support system that benefit the priority areas of strength and development in Västernorrland's innovation strategy for Smart Specialisation (S3). This is done by increasing knowledge about Smart Specialisation, developing increased system collaboration and developing roadmaps, analyses and knowledge bases, for a coherent implementation. The project is process-based where the actors jointly design working methods, tools and methods for the implementation of the strategy. The project will develop the working methods of the system, methods and processes for increased participation of more actors participating in the S3 work. S3 is the basis for the EU's common innovation and research policy as well as parts of European cohesion policy and is a tool and a process that supports the implementation of the 2021-2027 Structural Funds period, as required by the EU.
