Book excerpt: The European Joint Doctoral (EJD) cluster event, which took place on 9 November 2021, was organised jointly by the European Research Executive Agency (REA) and the European Commission's Directorate-General for Education, Youth, Sport and Culture (DG EAC). The event was an important part of REA's overall strategy to promote networking and exchanges between participants in MSCA funded projects and to set up cluster meetings gathering projects working in the same area. In 2021, REA already organised two topical cluster meetings on cancer research and innovation and on the European Green Deal, which brought together researchers funded through the programme, policy makers from the European Commission and other relevant stakeholders. The EJD cluster event followed the same logic and enabled participants to share the lessons learned through EJD projects, to discuss the encountered challenges and to provide inputs for the policy-making process at the European Commission.

Book excerpt: Funded under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA), the European Industrial Doctorate (EID) is a specific implementation mode of the MSCA Innovative Training Networks (ITN), which were the predecessor of MSCA Doctoral Networks (DN) implemented during the EU European Research and Innovation Framework Programme Horizon 2020 (2014-2020). The MSCA ITN and DN programmes were developed to provide a highly integrated type of international, intersectoral and interdisciplinary collaboration in doctoral training. Key aspects of these programmes are mobility of the fellows between project participants and their joint supervision. The Industrial Doctorates are highly prized training programmes performed in conjunction with industry. The fellows are jointly supervised by academic and non-academic supervisors providing fellows with an industrially-relevant PhD which has a clear foundation in industry and business skills. This results in multiple benefits for doctoral fellows such as enriching their experience, increasing their exposure to the non-academic sector and improving their employability. On 10 November 2022, the European Research Executive Agency (REA) organised a cluster event gathering over 160 relevant actors from 75 EID projects funded under Horizon 2020. The participants represented both the academic and non-academic sectors, which is essential for this mode of MSCA ITN projects. The participants included project beneficiaries and coordinators, industry representatives, Early-Stage Researchers (ESRs), National Contact Points (NCPs), representatives from the REA and the European Commission (EC) as well as the Marie Curie Alumni Association (MCAA). The meeting was pertinent in terms of timing and focus as highlighted by a survey conducted by the REA in April 20221. During this cluster event, an overview of the funded projects was given, as well as the key outcomes highlighted by the survey. The experiences of participants in the implementation of EID projects were discussed in depth. A key goal of the meeting was to document successes, good practices and lessons learnt, as well as provide recommendations to help improve and enhance the efficiency and impact of the programme for fellows, industry and academia in the future, thus contributing more effectively to the corresponding EU priorities. These conclusions are also applicable to the DN-ID programme in Horizon Europe.
Download or read book Internationalisation of Cluster Organisations written by Pavel Bednář and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-22 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the results of research conducted on clusters and their internationalisation, highlighting the importance of international collaboration. It shows the possibilities and benefits of internationalisation activities of cluster organisations in increasing the competitiveness of affiliated members. In addition, it offers a detailed evaluation of this type of cluster activities in relation to a range of relevant variables. The research presented here constitutes a valuable contribution to debates concerning cluster internationalisation issues, drawing attention to current trends and presenting a comparison with foreign studies. A particular advantage of the book is that, by focusing on a specific region, namely the Czech Republic, and offering a profound analysis of cluster internationalisation, its findings and recommendations shed new light on internationalisation issues and can further enrich development of such activities among clusters and cluster policies support in other countries. The book will serve as a guide for practitioners, policy makers and academics, and offers insights into the internationalisation of clusters.
Download or read book Rethinking Clusters written by Silvia Rita Sedita and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-22 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume discusses how different geographical spaces can enhance or hinder the capacity of a variety of organizational settings to achieve economic value creation in the pursuit of sustainable regional development. In order to provide the most comprehensive picture of new sources of value creation for sustainable transitions, the book collects contributions that tackle this issue from a variety of perspectives, and adopts a systemic approach where macro, meso and micro-levels of analysis are intertwined in three sections. This multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approach comes from scholars operating in the fields of planning, economic geography, social entrepreneurship and organizational management. The first section of the book adopts a macro-level approach linking sustainability to the regional development theme, and addresses how organizations work between different social interests to produce outcomes not previously realized. The second section of the book focuses on the spatial dimensions of sustainable development, with particular clusters, industrial districts and regions considered as relevant units of analysis (meso-level analysis). The third section of the book is dedicated to a micro-level approach, illustrating how to drive social entrepreneurship activities, which are based upon sustainable business models centered in the creation of a shared value. The book is geared towards scholars working on sustainable development issues intersecting the disciplines of regional studies, economic geography and management, and will appeal to geographers and researchers in economic development, business innovation, and sustainability transitions.

Download or read book The Himalayan Border Region written by Christoph Bergmann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-18 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing from extensive archival work and long-term ethnographic research, this book focuses on the so-called Bhotiyas, former trans-Himalayan traders and a Scheduled Tribe of India who reside in several high valleys of the Kumaon Himalaya. The area is located in the border triangle between India, the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR, People’s Republic of China), and Nepal, where contestations over political boundaries have created multiple challenges as well as opportunities for local mountain communities. Based on an analytical framework that is grounded in and contributes to recent advances in the field of border studies, the author explores how the Bhotiyas have used their agency to develop a flourishing trans-Himalayan trade under British colonial influence; to assert an identity and win legal recognition as a tribal community in the political setup of independent India; and to innovate their pastoral mobility in the context of ongoing state and market reforms. By examining the Bhotiyas’ trade, identity and mobility this book shows how and why the Himalayan border region has evolved as an agentive site of political action for a variety of different actors.

With chapters which offer insights from both academics and practitioners, the text offers a refreshing, contemporary and trans-national perspective and a clear, concise and enriching discussion on the interplay between research, policy and practice. Innovation Support in Latin America and Europe will appeal to academics and researchers, higher level students, policy makers and business leaders, particularly those with any interest in Latin America.
Download or read book The End of the Cognitive Empire written by Boaventura de Sousa Santos and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-16 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The End of the Cognitive Empire Boaventura de Sousa Santos further develops his concept of the "epistemologies of the South," in which he outlines a theoretical, methodological, and pedagogical framework for challenging the dominance of Eurocentric thought. As a collection of knowledges born of and anchored in the experiences of marginalized peoples who actively resist capitalism, colonialism, and patriarchy, epistemologies of the South represent those forms of knowledge that are generally discredited, erased, and ignored by dominant cultures of the global North. Noting the declining efficacy of established social and political solutions to combat inequality and discrimination, Santos suggests that global justice can only come about through an epistemological shift that guarantees cognitive justice. Such a shift would create new, alternative strategies for political mobilization and activism and give oppressed social groups the means through which to represent the world as their own and in their own terms.
