Utilising the GRESS methodology, the first analysis of the innovation climate creates the baseline for further examination.

The report collates data from all five partner regions and services as a starting point for the exchange of experience and mutual learning process during the project.

The report provides evidence for a variety of critical elements that enable partners to fully understand the specifics and needs of each country for deeper understanding. Each report analyses, in particular, the main strategies that currently exist, support programmes and tools, and the possible existence of strong regional markets and knowledge clusters.
