Description

The objective of the project is to support Romanian SMEs on their journeys to increase value creation and sustainable growth from radical innovation, by delivering individual and tailor-made mentoring packets within the Green Industry Innovation and Blue Growth.

The project is structured on 8 activities, involving the Applicant and Norwegian partner throughout process design, selection of SME beneficiaries, implementation of the mentoring programme with a focus on climate innovation, organisation of the exchange mission to Norway (including selected SMEs) and thematic workshops, drawing up of a pre-feasibility study for a technology transfer VC fund, as well as creating an online community of practice for climate innovators.

The proposed project implies the building up of a lasting collaboration between LUMINSPINO Romania and VINCO INNOVATION Norway, as companies with a similar profile in terms of business strategy, focus on innovation management services, and internal human capabilities. 
By engaging Romanian and Norwegian companies at least during the exchange mission to Norway, the Applicant and Partner aims to pave the way towards strengthening bilateral relations between the SMEs that will take part in the project, as well as stakeholders directly connected to climate innovation topics.
