Cross-border network of incubation system for new ICT companies
This project plans the creation of a cross-border incubation network including pre- and post-incubation services for new ICT companies in the boating, tourism and energy supply business. The challenge is to create a virtuous ecosystem that will generate and consolidate high-tech product companies. An Establishment Agreement will set in place a cross-border network of formerly independent companies dealing in the provision of new business creation services.  The project will offer qualified and integrated cross-border services structured after international best practices and experiment with innovative scouting and matching methods for the demand and supply of technological solutions.  Furthermore, the promotion of these services will make the partner areas more attractive to aspiring entrepreneurs, including those coming from other geographical regions.  Aspiring entrepreneurs, economic organisations, Universities, research centres and incubators will be the primary beneficiaries of the results envisioned by this project. Said results will include the Scouting Operational Plan, virtual instruments (marketplace and game training) to promote the matching of innovation supply and demand, service catalogues, a management and communication platform for the promotion of network services, information integration and interactions between network operators. The project will take a bottom-up approach to bring out new business ideas and ways to help businesses get established.
