ECCP Weekly Digest
We would like to acknowledge and thank for the great work done by the student reporters at the European Cluster Conference 2019 and invite you to read their résumé of the conference and visit their conference blog. As well as to watch the video interview with Andrea Halmos, Policy Officer - Technologies and Systems for Digitising Industry, Directorate General for Communications Networks, Content and Technology (CNECT.A2) on the relation between clusters and Digital Innovation Hubs.
We have two more invitations for important events: one for the ECCP Expert Talks Webinar on Digitalisation: challenges and opportunities for SMEs and the role of clusters for next Thursday, 20 June 2019 at 16.00-17.00 hrs (register here) and for the EREK FINAL CONFERENCE taking place in Brussels on 25-26 September 2019, addressing social economy, circular economy, industry 4.0 and digitalisation (register here).
Our colleagues from the European Observatory for Clusters and Industrial Change (EOCIC) published two important reports:
- A summary report on lessons learnt from fostering modern Cluster Policy in 10 pilot regions in industrial transition
- A Smart Guide for European Strategic Cluster Partnerships (ESCPs)
Time has also come for the ECCP to grow and by merging with The European Resource Efficiency Knowledge Centre - EREK and the European Observatory for Clusters and Industrial Change (EOCIC) it aims to become the European online hub for cluster stakeholders across Europe and a reference for cluster stakeholders in third countries wishing to establish partnerships with European counterparts. Read the call here.
