The Interreg Baltic Sea Region Programme 2014-2020 provides new funding opportunities for transnational cooperation projects around the Baltic Sea. It has a total budget of EUR 278.8 million from the European Regional Development Fund, European Neighbourhood Instrument, and Norway. Projects can receive up to 75% co-financing and typically range from EUR 300,000 to 5 million. The program seeks to make the region more innovative, accessible, and sustainable through four thematic priorities: innovation, natural resources, transport, and support for the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region. The first call for project proposals was launched in December 2014.
More than 99% of all companies are small and medium-sized enterprises, providing most training positions and creating the majority of new jobs. In the Baltic Sea Region SMEs account for around 55% of value added and 65% of employment
of all companies. This translates into over 26 million
people employed by SMEs. In times of economic
recession, supporting SMEs translates into supporting economic recovery and labour market stabilisation
in the EU. The innovation projects partfinanced
within the Baltic Sea Region Programme 2007-2013, in
2012, together formed a project cluster called Innovation in SMEs.
What do our SMEs need in the next few years or even the next
decades? How can we maintain highly innovative SMEs in the BSR and boost the innovation capacities of our companies? This brochure looks into three core areas of innovation
support: internationalisation and cooperation, qualification and education, and research and development.

TCI 2016 Regional governance and leadership: 3 Dutch casesTCI Network
This document summarizes a presentation about regional governance and leadership models in three Dutch regions: Brainport Twente, Amsterdam Metropolitan Area, and Brainport Eindhoven. It finds that the regions have different network models for governance based on their history and resources: Brainport Twente uses separate "silos", Brainport Eindhoven a dense "beehive" structure, and Amsterdam a looser "flocks" model. Leadership is sometimes lacking but can be effective if connective, and balance is needed between bottom-up and top-down approaches. Further research on multiple helix strategic networks and their effectiveness is warranted.

It is therefore fundamental that the UK innovation community is fully aware of the opportunities that remain open to them.
By coming to this event we aim to:
• Attract UK companies to submit proposals for European funding calls
• Provide clarity to UK organisations on the need and value to participate in EU competitions
• Attract non-aerospace organisations to the competitions
• Create an opportunity for new collaborations and connections
