4. infyde@infyde.eu 4 REGIONAL APPROACHES Eco-Competitiveness through regional policy actions… The case of Madrid Region…  Madrid is one of the top European regions  But its competitive advantages come mainly from its capital nature…. How can maintain its position in the new globalized, competitive and environmentally challenging world? STRATEGIC QUESTION STRATEGIC RESPONSE 1.Combining knowledge, competitiveness and sustainability within the same strategy 2.Combining competitiveness policy instruments within environmental policy ones ECO-COMPETITIVESS POLICY

5. infyde@infyde.eu 5 REGIONAL APPROACHES Combining clusters and STPs in a sustainable way… Clusters S&T Parks Innovation Competitiveness Eco-Clusters Eco-S&T Parks Eco-innovation Eco-competitiveness Traditional Approach New Approach

6. infyde@infyde.eu 6 REGIONAL APPROACHES Madrid Network impact Remarkable knock-on effects across the entire regional economy… 6 STPs – More than 3% of regional economy 12 Clusters– More than 40% of regional economy

7. infyde@infyde.eu 7 MADRID STPs APPROACH Through a industrial eco-system… 1. Create Resorce Flows cycles 2. Diversify Industrial Eco-Systems 3. Industrial systems adapted to local context 4. Introduce changes and improvements gradually INDUSTRIAL ECOSYSTEM as NEW TECHNOLOGY PARKS keeping in mind the ecology, studying how the wastes or by-products of a certain industry can be an input for other industry. A NEW WAY OF PLANNING and understanding competitiveness

8. infyde@infyde.eu 8 MADRID CLUSTER APPROACH Madrid Clusters methodological approach… Living Labs Complex Composed Value Chains (CCVC) Intercluster cooperation CUSTER APPROACH as A NEW WAY TO:  Profiting from environmental imperative (Eco-industries)  Eco-competitive improvements of traditional industries  Related Variety Sustainable Growth
