Magdeburg, 8th March 2018
JRC work on Smart Specialisation
Areas of work Analytical tools
Structure of the presentation
Origin and
evolution of the
concept
Survey: 4-
ple helix
Survey:
Continuous
EDP
Survey:
Self-
evaluation
Legal basis
• S3s shall be developed through involving […]
managing authorities and stakeholders […] in
an entrepreneurial discovery process.
• ERDF Regulation
EDP: the legal basis
Entrepreneurial Discovery Process (EDP) – Evolution of the
concept
• An intact logic of the EDP… as interactive and inclusive process
to:
─ open new technological and market domains
─ inform governments’ policy and decision-making
• …for an evolved concept:
─ The continuous nature of the EDP
─ The cyclical nature of the EDP;
The EDP is embedded in the strategy
EDP – Evolution of the concept
Defining and testing the concept of continuous EDP
• RIS3 Strategies, policy literature,
JRC Activities
• Feedback with JRC and experts
RIS3 Handbook
Chapter 1
• Conceptual Model
• based on good practice
• Operationalisation of
concept
• Development of the survey
• Feedback with JRC and
FORO ADR
EDP Survey
• Model validation
• Identification of
learning
opportunities

Editor's Notes

  1. The cyclical nature of the EDP: Discovering or learning what a country or a region is good at requires an investment in a concrete process of exploration. However, the experience accumulated over the past five years has shown that this is only the initial step of EDP. In other words, the EDP in practice goes beyond the prioritisation phase and the subsequent related investments. Hausmann & Rodrik (2003). It is critical to ensure continuity to the EDP. Breaking the EDP means disrupting a trust-building process that is crucial for the sustainability of the S3 itself. The new role of government: The inclusive governance and evidence-based policy, required for the EDP, demands that the public sector acts as a platform to enable targeted stakeholders’ interaction and policy coordination. This should sustain and guide stakeholders’ participation across the entire policy cycle. Here, the government operates as a service provider enabling its user community. As such, the EDP brings new opportunities to policy- makers, as well as important challenges. O’Reilly, (2010). The need to adapt EDP to contextual factors: The afore-mentioned challenges need to be addressed starting from the contextual factors. At the core of the S3 concept lays the conviction that development paths are place-based, which is why one EDP size does not fit all. A place-based approach is about extracting and building on local knowledge with the aim to mobilise it nationally and internationally, taking into account local specificities and constraints McCann and Ortega-Argilés (2015). The local, regional, national or transnational structures for EDP: The EDP approach has triggered new institutional arrangements beyond the regional scale. Such structures are based on the awareness that ‘bottom-up approaches’, which mobilise stakeholders in the pursuit of innovation and which requires multiple points of view to combine technology with market opportunities, have the potential to add value at different levels.
  2. Informative: Surveys, Bilateral dialogue, Public meetings Interactive: Workshops, Participatory methods (6 regions only informative)
  3. Frequency of stakeholders as expected.,. Virtually everyone invited HEIs and Research sectors… in fact I think there is a mistake about Emilia Romagna. Public and Business sector – clear preference for local/regional actors and institutionalised ones (business associations/clusters) "Other" unsurprisingly less represented! Civil Society and Users' centered most interesting to follow-up. They are closer to citizenship . Unions – institutionalised presence they are often invited. Other includes a mix of civil society and various socio-economic actors, peripheral to the innovation systems. Frequency is correlated with the role stakeholders are expected to have in the EDP process as indicated in the next slide
  4. TOP
  5. Local firms more than 50% would like them more engaged. Same with Civil society (i.e. fairly frequent invited stakeholders). Approx 25% want local firms substantially more involved. Opportunity – get those who are satisfied with the involvement to chat with those who are not It seems that there were some bad experiences in relation to Risk Capital (anyways not frequently invited). EC – more than 50% Equally engaged or less engaged!
  6. High levels of satisfaction across 5 dimensions. Though 3.4% unsatisfied with ability of EDP to improve decision making.
