Good Practices

The overall objective of MINI EUROPE is to elaborate through its international partnership a set of regional politic instruments and strategies to sustain the development of small and medium enterprises, their capacities of innovation and technological transfer with universities, knowledge institutes.

The first stage of the project is devoted to map and then make a Catalogue of Experiences documenting existing good practices in the partner regions and results from relevant projects.

At the heart of the project are the exchanges of experience which will involve an intensive transfer of one specific instrument, approach or tool from one partner region to another. The precise tools to be transferred will be decided in the early stages of the project. However, the initial analysis of existing good practice already identified a range of valuable practical instruments to be transferred.

You can search for Good Practices by TOPIC or by REGION.
