| Description | ASTRIC’s objective is to build institutional capacity for cooperation and territorial strategies to attract
needed skills and talent. Partners address the transformative processes of regions to achieve green and just transition by sharing good practices and jointly learning. These are concretized as joint action plans/strategies to uptake transferred and adapted evaluation solutions (i.e. METRIC), enabling the measurement of regional innovation ability and innovation capacity of ecosystems. |
| Partners | The partnership composition in this project is based on the rationale that the involved partners share
similarities in terms of their focus on innovation-driven economies, strong educational and research institutions, the urgent need of (more) talent, and thriving S3 sectors such as agrifood and technology. All partners share the commitment mindset to achieving green and just transition. Despite these similarities, the partners also complement each other through their specific strengths and expertise brought together on a transnational level, such as data and evaluation experience, innovation capacity building, and facilitating transferability. Each are committed to sharing and learning about systematic ways of monitoring the development of the innovations capacities and how it connects to talent attraction, ultimately enabling the public authorities to develop more impactful operations, strategies, and policies.
