The objectives of this project are to examine and identify the driving factors behind innovation, to involve and exploit all potential stakeholders in society and to leverage good practice and new measures into national and regional innovation policies. The activities include identification of all potential innovators in society from schoolchildren to advanced research laboratory and from the curious human to front runners among innovative enterprises. All levels of innovators will be brought together and public-private innovation partnerships will be promoted.
The aim is to facilitate exploration of experiences and attitudes towards creativity, promote new constellations of collaboration and enhance inventiveness within and across business sectors, scientific fields, education, public sectors and virtual communities.
The project will result in a concept for identifying the driving factors behind innovation. The results and new tools for enhancing innovation will be publicly disseminated and made exploitable for all regions of Europe.
The project will via its holistic approach and new methods contribute to integrating and structuring the European Research Area by challenging the European society into changing habits, and by providing new tools to exploit Europe’s full potentials to innovate and compete in a global knowledge society.
