Multi-Level Governance of Innovation and Smart Specialisation
Transnational governing structure of innovation and smart specialisation between CBSS Member States
The aim of this publication is to analyse the global, international, European and transnational or macro-regional governing structures of innovation and smart specialisation relevant to the CBSS Member States in the science-business cooperation context. The publication serves as the subsequent part of the smart specialisation analysis commenced by the BSR Policy Briefing 4/2017 “National innovation and smart specialisation governance in the Baltic Sea region: Laying grounds for an enhanced macro-regional science-business cooperation”. The Baltic TRAM project has mapped various research and innovation trends across the area of the Four Regional Councils of the North. Such an outreach proves that the Baltic Sea Region remains an outward-looking area, which does not celebrate only its own achievements but seeks to understand how they fit into a wider landscape of domain-specific developments.
