A couple of concepts,
!
Eight Do’s and Don’ts, and
!
Plenty good practice examples …
!
of how to make better use of clusters for
promoting regional industrial
modernisation, supporting the growth of
SMEs and encouraging smart
specialisation.

Do's and Don'ts of Modern Cluster Policy
Don’ts Do’s
Support individual specialised firms Support new activities, in particular those being undertaken
by groups or networks of related industries
Create clusters from scratch Facilitate the growth of clusters by building upon existing
strengths
Fund large numbers of widely varied clusters Fund strategic cluster initiatives that focus on promoting the
strengths, linkages and emerging competences and which
are in line with the aims of national/regional smart
specialisation strategies
Follow growth trends without reflection Capitalise upon regional competences to diversify into new
activity areas and to develop emerging industries
Follow a narrow sectoral cluster approach Follow a systemic cluster approach focusing on related
industries by capturing cross-sectoral linkages
Develop and implement cluster policy in isolation from
other policy areas
Adopt an inclusive and participatory cluster approach
Support cluster initiatives that are only inward looking Support cluster initiatives that have an international
perspective on the positioning of the cluster in international
value chains
Focus exclusively on strengthening regional partnerships Build regional partnerships as a basis for joining European
Strategic Cluster Partnerships

European Cluster Panorama 2016
http://ec.europa.eu/DocsRoom/documents/20381
- 3043 strong clusters account for more than 54 million jobs
- Gazelles in strong clusters employ 35 staff compared to 24 elsewhere
- Wages in strong clusters are 3% higher than elsewhere
- 40% of activity in emerging industries concentrated in 20% of regions

TOPIC SCOPE
NMBP-05-
2017 (IA)
Advanced materials and innovative design for
improved functionality and aesthetics in high
added value consumer goods
The proposed solutions should go well beyond the state of the art
and it should be demonstrated that materials with improved
durability also fulfil all other properties necessary for the application
proposed.
NMBP-07-
2017 (RIA)
Systems of materials characterisation for
model, product and process optimisation
In the triangle of manufacturing, modelling, and experimentation,
the projects should develop an open innovation environment for the
optimisation of materials, materials behaviour and/or nano-device
manufacturing processes, and for the validation of materials
models11 based on experimental characterisation.
NMBP-22-
2017 (RIA)
Business models and industrial strategies
supporting novel supply chains for innovative
product-services
Business models supporting the novel supply chains for innovative
product-services would need to facilitate the flow of information on
free utilisation capacity among service providers, which could be
dedicated business set-ups for that kind of product-services, or just
existing manufacturers with free production capacity at certain
moments in time and business companies seeking short term
solutions for their capacity shortages.
NMBP-25-
2017 (IA)
Next generation system integrating tangible
and intangible materials model components to
support innovation in industry
Establish a web based marketplace linking various activities and
databases on models, information on simulation tools, communities,
expertise, course materials, lectures, seminars and tutorials for at

Funziona! Gentras (Toscana)
Gentras è un’azienda di biotecnologie, totalmente italiana con sede a
Prato, dedita alla messa a punto e commercializzazione di test innovativi
basati sull’analisi del DNA
!
Attraverso i servizi dello sportello EEN di Confindustria Toscana, l’azienda
ha incontrato – durante il Meet in Italy for Life Sciences che si è svolto a
Milano nel 2015 – UD-GenoMed Medical Genomic (UDG), uno spin off
dell’Università ungherese di Debrecen, con anni di esperienza nel campo
della genomica funzionale e della biologia molecolare, diventato popolare
nel mercato ungherese e rumeno grazie al rapporto prezzo/valore
favorevole nella vendita di prodotti/kit di biologia molecolare e reagenti

een.ec.europa.eu
Funziona! Gentras
Grazie ai rapporti instaurati tramite EEN, UDG ha consentito a Gentras di
acquistare il principale reagente, utilizzato nelle loro attività di analisi, ad un
prezzo pari a 1/10 del prezzo pagato per la stessa tipologia di prodotto in Italia
(0,056 € / unità contro i 0,56 € / unità)
!
L’accordo di fornitura iniziato dopo l’incontro di Milano è poi diventato
continuativo e ha permesso a Gentras di ridurre i costi di produzione del
30% e di guadagnare un +10% della quota di mercato in un solo anno
!
Per UDG la partnership ha determinato l’apertura a un mercato
completamente nuovo (in aggiunta a un nuovo cliente) e l’aumento delle
