Recommendations for R&D&I in future cohesion policy
1. Ensure policy coherence with other EU, national, regional programmes– Within knowledge triangle, with corners having different spatial characteristics
2. Stimulate R&D&I through supply-side and demand-side actions– For European competitiveness and cohesion
3. Promote common European goals rather than “closed” regional interests– Via open programmes, cross-border/transnational/interregional collaboration
4. Avoid segregation of SMEs, large firms and research organisations – As complementary actors in Open Innovation
5. Provide SMEs with innovation vouchers– For knowledge, advice or services from public or private R&D labs
6. Involve business sector in strategic planning– In Triple Helix approach
7. Make European Research Area multi-level Open Innovation ecosystem– With EU institutional and legal complexity as particular challenge
