ended

Abstract in english - proposal in french : The Enterprise Europe Network for Normandie-Picardie is a proposal which has the continuous involvement of 3 Regional Chambers of Commerce and Industry (RCCI) which, since their creation, have been part of European business support networks. The recent addition of the Normandy Regional Agencies for Innovation and the Normandy RCCI innovation consultants in the EE Network is an added value to the offer. This expansion strengthens the network’s innovation skills and facilitates access to European funding possibilities for the Normandie-Picardie region. The growing number of people involved will multiply actions towards businesses, maximize their impact, raise the network’s profile, standardize services, improve their quality and make them easily accessible to local companies. The 5 partners of the consortium will work closely together to reach the following goals: - Encouraging innovation for long term competitiveness - Integrating European and International dimensions in company's strategy - Promoting and supporting networking between companies - Increasing the number of SMEs benefiting from European funding programs These objectives will translate to business consulting services (legal advice, international trade and technological innovation), transnational cooperation services (business conventions and potential partners research), feedback to European entities and promotional activities within the Enterprise Europe Network. These services target needs of clients such as companies reflecting on their innovation or export strategy, companies developing their innovative project and looking for business partners abroad, local innovation and export stakeholders, and companies taking part in European collaborative projects.
