About This Opportunity

This EU-funded grant opportunity supports initiatives that build capacity and relevant ecosystems for developing skills in smart specialization, structural transformation, and entrepreneurship in Central Norrland (Jämtland-Härjedalen and Västernorrland regions). The funding aims to help regional actors meet a changing world, including effects of digital transformation and green transition, to remain competitive. Projects should contribute to good governance of regional strategies for smart specialization, which is a new requirement for this program period. Eligible projects include initiatives that build capacity and ecosystems for smart specialization skills, meeting places that gather actors within and across regional and national borders, support structures for innovation and competence supply, and analyses to continuously develop smart specialization processes. The program emphasizes sustainable industrial transformation and innovation as central to European, national, and regional strategies.
