Central Europe Branch Based Innovation Support
The project CEBBIS is looking for trans-regional branch based, demand-led methods and solutions to improve technology transfer to SMEs. The partbnership joints its forces in order to provides tools, methods and proceedings for professionalising intermediary innovation and technology transfer supporting staff, related to ICT-driven innovation for knowledge-intensive core industries. Offering industry specific innovation support, by focusing on new ICT applications, CEBBIS aims to raise SMEs competitiveness on the international market. Participating regions share common problems of intermediaries who lack contact and cooperation with similar organizations from other countries. An applicable transnational model for the efficient diffusion and application of knowledge in new products, processes and services is to be drafted. 
CEBBIS partners from IT, DE, HU, CZ, AT, SI represent regional and national decision-makers, and intermediaries like technology parks; competence centres and business organisations. Each partner stands for a particular type of organisation involved in the process of technology transfer. The project will allow for regional and transnational networking of technology transfer intermediaries and cluster organisations.
