Abstract

Over the last 10 years or so the EU has supported many initiatives focused on enhancing regional competitiveness, regional innovation, and regional sustainability. Whilst a plethora of initiatives has been developed and presented, ongoing sustainability of regional innovation processes and regional innovation clusters still eludes us. A proposed solution is the Adaptive Model for Creating a RTD (Research and Technology Development) Investment Policy for Regions in Emerging and Developed Economies (CRIPREDE), which was developed as part of an EU FP6, Regions of Knowledge 2 co-funded project. The Adaptive Model was co-developed, and tested, in a highly interactive process, involving stakeholders and research organisations in six very different (political, cultural, economic) regions across the EU.
The Adaptive Model’s success is measured, in part, by the sustainable action plans that have been implemented in each of the regions involved in the project. Its development and success has been achieved through the underlying principles of the Triple-P, Triple Helix, and Entrepreneurial Imperative models. An overriding principle of the whole process is that the regional stakeholders are the drivers and owners of the regional developmental process and the implementation of the regional action plans derived from the Adaptive Model.

Fußnoten
1
See Footnote 1.
 
2
The term adaptive in this context means that the model is not location, technology, industry sector, administrative, or infrastructure specific. The model has been designed in such a manner as to be applicable in any geographic or political domain as it takes the nuances of these domains into consideration through the process of vision generation, strategy development, action planning, and implementation.
 
3
The term model in this context means ‘process’, a practical step-by-step methodology through which users can (a) audit and assess their current regional characteristics and attributes (both hard and soft), and (b) define and implement a vision, strategy and set of actions to transform their respective regions into more RTD oriented regions.
 
4
In line with the flexibility and adaptability of the CRIPREDE Adaptive Model the interview process, techniques employed, and quantity of interviewees (regional stakeholders) varied from country to country involved in the CRIPRDE consortium. For further details see: Bugge et al. (2008).
