Smart Specialisation Strategy. The concept
EU 2020: Flagship Union for Innovation
Communication “Regional Policy Contributing to Smart Growth in Europe”
Ex-conditionality on the new cohesion framework
Regions will be required to identify the sectors, the technological domains, or the major areas of likely competitive advantage, and then focus their regional policy as to promote innovation in these fields.
RIS3. The importance of EDP

6. RIS3. The importance of EDP
Smart Specialisation Strategy. The rationale
Knowledge for Growth Group (K4G) “Transatlantic productivity gap”
Fragmentation and repetition. All regions looking at the same technological domains. Lower level of technological and economic specialisation
Focus on specific domains, exploiting their position and regional –based comparative advantage in innovation
European clusters are not the best ranked on the global market, because of low level of competitiveness and international integration, and the failing capacity to internalise the growing knowledge spillovers in innovation and value chains.
Open Innovation System
More complex form of governance, decentralised coordination
To concentrate resources on few key priorities rather than spreading investment thinly across areas and business sector.
RIS3. The importance of EDP

7. RIS3. The importance of EDP
“Smart specialization emphasizes on innovation and concentrate scarce human and financial
resources in few areas  globally competitive and identified by a process of
entrepreneurial discovery "
“The regions must pursue a diversified portfolio of related activities, finding the balance between enough specialization to be competitive, but not too much to expose the region to the risks of changes in market conditions or other unpredictable external events "

S3 and peripheral regions. Questions and doubts
In peripheral regions, entrepreneurial processes tend to be less successful
Lack of connectivity
Small market potential
Low level global integration
Too specialised economy, insufficiently diversified
Searching and exploiting the TECHNOLOGICAL RELATEDNESS,
Will S3 approach drive lagging regions to focus on its traditional domains?
Will the core advanced regions be the only ones able to focus their specialisation on knowledge based technologies?
TECNOLOGICAL DIVERSIFICATION OF MAJOR EMBEDED INDUSTRIES
Fostering learning linkages with industrial production zones and knowledge regions
Regional policy focus on foster human capital formation for the new “knowledge needs”
Following region access to problem solving expertise

11. Entrepreneurial Discovery Process
What do they need?
With whom they cooperate?
Who are their competitors and their customers?
Is there critical mass?
Is there excellence?

Entrepreneurial Discovery Process
- Utilizing entrepreneurial knowledge existing in a country
Taking an entrepreneurial approach in the sense of focusing on market opportunities
Managing risks and seeking alliances to optimise the access to and use of resources (physical, financial, intellectual, market knowledge, etc.).
Policy makers should involve all types of innovation actors (e.g. businesses, technology and competence centres, universities and public agencies, science and business parks, business angels and venture capitalists, civil society, etc.)
The government no longer plays a role of omniscient planner but it will assess the potential of the new activities and empower those actors which are most capable of realizing that potential.

RIS3. The importance of EDP

16. Step 1 - Analysis of the regional context and potential for innovation
The analysis should cover three main dimensions:
• Territorial assets, such as technological infrastructures; Major strengths and weaknesses, identifying any bottlenecks of the innovation system and key challenges both for the economy and the society. Economic differentiation is one of the central principles behind smart specialisation.
Linkages with the rest of the world and the position of the region within the European and global economy, and
• Dynamics of the entrepreneurial environment.
Level of entrepreneurship.
Degree of business development and innovation potential.
Entrepreneurs in the broad sense: actors regional innovation system.
Tools suitable for this kind of analysis can include SWOT analysis, regional profiling studies, targeted surveys and expert assessments. consulting firms and clusters; technology audits; Prospective studies ...

17. Step 2 - Governance: Ensuring participation and ownership
RIS3 process requires broad participation of stakeholders from different types and levels: Public officials, and enterprise networks, universities, research centers, technology centers, incubators, NGOs, consumers ... “Cuadruple Helix".
- Open, transparent and collaborative process.
Entrepreneurial discovery Process
Collaborative leadership Codecision

18. Step 3 - Elaboration of an overall vision for the future of the region
Having a clear and shared vision of regional development is crucial in order to keep stakeholders engaged in the process, a task that is particularly challenging, given that a RIS3 is a long-term process.
Determine the strategic objective for the future of RIS3.
Discuss and decide where you want to place the region in the future.
Mobilizing power: generating a positive voltage to the achievement of strategic objectives.
Ensure the long term all stakeholders engagement in the process.

19. Step 4 - Identification of priorities
Decision making and priority setting:
Select a limited number of areas of specialization or differentiation, in which the territory already has assets and critical mass, with potential for smart specialization.
Areas with innovative potential in the region to pursue excellence.
Horizontal priorities ICT. KETs.
Prevent most powerful pressure groups control the process of decision making.

20. Step 5 - Definition of coherent policy mix, roadmaps and action plan
Roadmap, action plan, using pilot projects.
Identification of appropriate instruments and measures to achieve the objectives.
Tools to overcome challenges and difficulties identified in the process.

22. Step 6 - Integration of monitoring and evaluation mechanisms
Mechanisms for monitoring and evaluating should be integrated in the strategy and its different components from the very beginning.
Monitoring: verify the correct and efficient implementation of the measures.
Evaluation: External process aims at verifiying whether strategic objectives have been achieved
It is necessary to adapt and update the strategy regularly.
The information obtained through monitoring and evaluation mechanisms should be taken into account when updating the strategy.
Establish measurable objectives and performance indicators.
