Bioeconomy as an integrated system

Smart Specialization Strategy & Horizon2020

A R&I Smart Specialization Strategy should be: a) tailored on the territory and addressed to exploit local

(bio)resources and existing knowledge, integrating and exploiting local public-private partnerships, policy makers and consumer associations, and

b) aligned with the bioeconomy strategies/priorities identified at the national level and by Horizon 2020, JPIs, ERANETs, etc with a R&I agenda complementary to the EU ones in terms of contents/scale;

In order to: a) integrate R&I funds and efforts at regional, national and EU level

(by reducing duplication and fragmentation) for a more robust and long term impact on local economical and job growth;

b) pave the way for a more successful Italian exploitation of funding opportunities offered by Horizon 2020, PPPs, JPIs, ERANETs, COSTs, etc.
