Interreg Europe is a capacity-building programme dedicated to policy learning and policy improvements. In particular, it is dedicated to the exchange and transfer of good practices in order to improve the effectiveness of regional development policies.

Interreg Europe projects build on the good practices identified within their partnership carried out through desk research, project meetings and study visits. They are the source of inspiration when preparing the action plans and improving the performance of their policies.

A good practice is defined as “an initiative (e.g. project, project, process, technique) undertaken in one of the programme’s priority axes which has proved to be successful in a region and which is of potential interest to other regions. Proved successful means that the good practice has already provided tangible and measurable results in achieving a specific objective.” Since Interreg Europe is dedicated to regional development policy improvements, a good practice is usually related a public intervention. A private initiative may be considered as a good practice only if there is evidence that this initiative has inspired public policies.

Within the framework of the INNO Industry project, 30 good practices have been identified, three for each of the ten countries participating in the project, all of them focused on clusters, digitalization and Industry 4.0:
