„Social-, Service-, and Eco-innovations in Bio-economy: Best practice Workshop on capacities and opportunities“ (30.01.2018; Nitra)
The Danube macro-region provides ideal framework conditions for bio-economy due to high-quality natural resources, well-known universities and a strong industrial tissue of SMEs. However, the region is still lagging behind its possibilities and missing links between research and innovation hamper the access to required knowledge and resources.
In such context, the Union of Slovak Clusters organized on 30th January 2018 workshop “Social-, Service-, and Eco-innovations in Bio-economy: Best practice workshop on capacities and opportunities“ with aim to bring together representatives of higher education institutions, clusters, SMEs and NGOs and to foster local innovation capacity through good practices examples and knowledge exchange on cross-cutting issues related to bio-economy such social-, services- and eco-innovation.
