Description

This report represents a milestone in JRC's research on place-based transformative innovation policies, an example of co-creation with key stakeholders and a living document that will enrich with more experiences and tools to enable territories to achieve their transformations in line with EU policies and national plans. It consists of three parts connected to one another:

  • 27 non-sequential activities to design and implement transformative innovation that is relevant to people in territories.
  • The collection of practices shows lessons learnt from 32 real examples of transformative innovation in EU territories, from cities to regions and Member States.
  • 74 operational tools, including concepts, methodologies and EU policy initiatives, that can be explored and used by territories to advance on specific topics of transformative innovation.
