| SPACE2ID - Space Clusters International Industrial Diversification of call COS-CLUSTER-2014-3-03 – Cluster Go International. The SPACE2ID project (Space Clusters International Industrial Diversification) main objective is to create an ESCP between European space Clusters and several other European clusters, namely MELCA clusters (MELCA stemming for Mobility, Energy, Logistics, Creative industries and Agriculture). It proposes to pave the way to the international business development of space technologies providers in the following applicative sectors: Mobility (i.e. transports of people), Energy, Logistics (i.e transport of goods), Creative Industries (i.e., design, games and music), Agriculture.
FabSpace 2.0 - Τhe Fablab for data-based innovation including Space data in 2.0 University of INSO-4-2015 «Innovative schemes for open innovation and science 2.0». Το FabSpace 2.0 will provide a new free-access service and place dedicated to collaborative data-driven innovation in 6 European universities (13 at the end of the project). Through online support, entrepreneurship & innovation leadership trainings for students and researchers, the human capital among FabSpace users will be enhanced. The link between universities, industry, the public sector and civil society will be strengthened with 18 local and 3 European contests consisting in developing new applications to tackle challenges launched by ONGs & companies. 1500 students and researchers are expected to use FabSpaces, half of them will participate in contests and 21 teams will be awarded a grant to be used for product development only. | The project "Establishment and Operation of the Space Technologies and Applications Cluster" is co-financed by National Funds and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) (1.200.00€ total budget) under the Hellenic National Strategic Reference Framework (NSRF). The Project is carried out in the framework of the O.P. Competitiveness and Entrepreneurship and the R.O.P. with the message “Regions at the Centre of Development” Pilot Operation Phase of the Programme “Creation of Innovation Clusters”. In the framework of facilitator’s action plan the project aims to create a one-stop-shop, through which the entire innovation network gains access to unique business opportunities in the thematic segments of the si-Cluster operation, Support new venture creation, and further expansion and development of the si-Cluster, expand the innovation-knowledge horizon with a thorough training program, through which members gain best-in-class know-how on topics ranging from technical skills and project management, to negotiation tactics and business plan development, ease the innovation gap through complementarities and partnerships among members as well as between members and national and international organisations, including world-class innovation centres of excellence, in Europe, USA, Japan, etc, Support members to access international markets and develop strategic alliances with partners abroad, sponsor actions to establish strong ties with universities and research centres to enhance technology transfer and R&D commercialisation in the thematic technology areas of focus, provide incentives for VCs and Business Angels to invest, especially at the early stages, by creating a favourable environment and matching investments, supports IPR protection and patent submission with an IPR helpdesk to support SMEs on the complete process of patent filing, including dedicated IPR due diligence, patent seminars covering a wide array of topics, full process filing, etc. and develop the appropriate research culture in the local space industry in order to closely monitor related developments in technologies and applications in global scale. | |
