In the 2010 – 2016 period, ZABALA Innovation worked on monitoring regional R&I policies in Spain, within the RIM (Regional Innovation Monitor) project which, through a network of experts, offers detailed information on the regional innovation policies, supporting the exchange of information on innovation policies in all Member States.
The work followed three diferent lines. Firstly, they examined which measures to support R&D&I were implemented in each autonomous community. In addition, they examined what plans or policies were implemented to increase innovation. And finally, it monitored which public entities were managing the aid and how to manage access to it.
Zabala Innovation developed the content and architecture of a user-friendly, digital information and knowledge platform.
Zabala Innovation supported the development of a ready-to-use toolkit to empower SMEs across the EU to conduct due diligence on their mineral supply chains.
