17 17 Regional Ecosystem

18 18 Why smart specialisation?

19 19 What is the issue? Europe 2020 is the EU s growth strategy for the coming decade. In a changing world, we want the EU to become a smart, sustainable and inclusive economy. These three mutually reinforcing priorities should help the EU and the Member States deliver high levels of employment, productivity and social cohesion. Concretely, the Union has set five ambitious objectives on employment, innovation, education, social inclusion and climate/energy to be reached by Each Member State has adopted its own national targets in each of these areas. Concrete actions at EU and national levels underpin the strategy. National and regional authorities across Europe shall design smart specialisation strategies in entrepreneurial discovery process, so that the European Structural Investment Funds (ESIF) can be used more efficiently and synergies between different EU, national and regional policies, as well as public and private investments can be increased.
