Title: Atlantic network of aquaculture facilitators
Priority: 1. Promote transnational entrepreneurial and innovation networks.
Objective: 1.1. Develop knowledge transfers between companies and research centres.
Context
European aquaculture is going through a period of regulatory adaptations, competition in the markets due to the entry
of products from third countries, decrease of productions, etc.; a fact that has made it lose positions worldwide.
However, it is in Europe where greater scientific knowledge is generated and, it is one of the business sectors to be
strengthened in the Common Fisheries Policy.
There are numerous centres of knowledge creation and management which are developing strands of work of great
interest and numerous projects thus obtaining valuable information. But sometimes it has a lower transferability to the
business sector than desired. In addition, a lack of coordination for the use of the information available can be
appreciated.
Public administrations focused on research and policy development must be coordinated in order to promote and boost
business development. Those strategies carried out by the European Parliament for the development of European
aquaculture have highlighted the fact that the success of the European aquaculture will depend on creating
environments favourable to companies.
Justify of the proposal
The project proposed aims to respond to a real need: the need of figures that would facilitate, coordinate and be links for
the efficient management and transfer of scientific knowledge to the business sector through the implementation of the
outcomes of the research that have been financed with public funds.
Main and specific objectives
Main Objective: to promote transnational entrepreneurial and innovation networks on aquaculture through the
development of knowledge transfer between companies and research centres
Specific objectives:
- to analyse the basic and applied research in aquaculture developed in regional research centres
- to create, at the regional level, the figure of a "facilitator" who will be the link between the research centres, universities
and foundations, what means, the managers of the knowledge that will be subsequently transfered to the business
sector
- to promote and facilitate networking between regional 'facilitators'
Expected results
1. Creation and establishment of a transnational network of facilitators of knowledge to companies. This network will
depend on any public entity to ensure its continuity.
2. Improvement of governance in aquaculture concerning the transfer of public research to the private sector.
3. To inform the business sector about the existence of such a network.
4. Improvement of the access to the knowledge by companies.
5. Access to and exchange of information, contacts and management procedures between the regions.
Innovative aspects of the project
The project aims at improving governance in the sector not only of the administrations in charge of aquaculture
business management but also of the generating knowledge centres. In this way, the project is intended to promote and
share the knowledge produced by organisations through a series of advisory and guidance services, and facilitate access
to tools and resources appropriate for the business development of the aquaculture sector, which currently lacks such
instruments.
Expected partner search
Type of Partner: administrations that manage this activity in a territory as well as research centres of the
aquaculture and fisheries sector
Geographical areas: partners located in any eligible region in Atlantic Area O.P.
