COMPETITIVENESS
External Advisers of the Commission for regional and urban policies
DG REGIO (Directorate General for Regional and Urban Policy) aims to support job creation, business competitiveness, economic growth, sustainable development and the improvement in the quality of life of citizens in all regions and cities of the European Union. Zabala Innovation was approved as an external advisor for the strategic evaluation of regional and national policies on R&D and innovation during the period 2015 – 2018. Among the programmes assessed by Zabala, one of the most prominent were the two EU 100 programmes dedicated to cities: URBACT and URBAN INNOVATIVE ACTIONS (UIA).
Zabala Innovation collaborates with IAN by building spaces for dialogue between this agri-food company, public authorities and local communities in Namibia.
Zabala's role was crucial in supporting the leader in executing the interviews with the various stakeholders involved, designing the strategic workshops and analysing the information available mainly for Spain.
The Industrial Innovation in Transition (IIT) project aims to understand how innovation processes are changing in European industry, and to disseminate best practices in this area among companies and government agencies.
