2) develop inter-clusters cooperation, moving towards meta-clusters;
3) represent alpine space clusters within EU initiatives;
Specifically, Alps4EU will map Alpine Area clusters strategic priorities, develop guidelines and proposals for joint programming activities, elaborate a Joint Action Plan including common funding opportunities for clusters, foster transnational technology transfer activities, promote inter-cluster activities for innovation, promote Alpine Space clusters at EU level.
