Selection of testimonial companies to test transnational innovation support services

Introduction

This call is published within the NUCLEI project, funded within the INTERREG Central Europe Programme (Project n. CE318).

Within the project, the 7 NUCLEi industrial clusters will involve their end-beneficiaries (Large Companies, SMEs, R&D performers) in an open & collaborative environment for the testing of new, transnational innovation services. These 7 clusters are located in the Central European Regions of Emilia-Romagna (IT), Veneto (IT) Bavaria (DE), Upper Austria (AT), Slovakia (SK), Lower Silesia (PL), Bohemia (CZ).

The companies to be involved in the NUCLEI call will therefore have the opportunity to:

Contribute to define the content of 21 customized open seminars around specific technology domains (pilot 1 - technology showcase)
Express preferences to manage crosscutting innovation challenges in automation and mechatronics thanks to 6 transnational working tables (pilot 2 - knowledge sharing)

Instructions for participants

Participants must candidate via the following application form.

Information on the use of personal data

Participants may consult the relevant information on the use of personal data (see PDF document)

Information about indirect state aid

It must be noticed that, according to the results of the negotiation round with the JS which was propaedeutic to the signature of the Subsidy Contract, the JS argued that the deliverable D.T3.2.3. (R&D-industry preliminary deals) is to be considered as potentially relevant to indirect state aid, as pilot companies shall receive a free-service from the partners to discuss initial contractual agreements to buy/sell KETs application for manufacturing processing .

Should the implementation of this pilot action bring some pilot companies and R&D performers to concretely discuss and finalize bilateral contractual agreements to buy/sell KETs application, the relevant partners must verify the compliance of this company with the state-aid regulation and threshold and report it to the lead partner.
