The Mini S3 Roadmap
About the MiniS3 Roadmap
It is essential to highlight the fact that the use of all the 29 applications during a decision-making process is not the main target of this platform. On the contrary, the Online-S3 Platform aims to present a wide selection of methodologies and their corresponding tools to policy-makers, so they can select the ones that they want to use, based on the type of analysis that will be implemented. The Mini-S3 roadmap has been designed, including only a short list of the most essential methodologies and tools that could be used during a RIS3 design process. This roadmap includes a set of 14 applications, that have been chosen based on the importance of the corresponding methodology, as well as the feedback we have received from the users, regarding their user friendliness. The selection of the tools tries to cover the whole RIS3 strategic planning process.
ANALYSIS
The analysis part includes a set of applications that focus on pointing out existing assets within regions, as well as benchmark the current situation within a group of selected regions. This part constitutes a preparation phase of a RIS3 design process, as it tries to shed light on emerging regional opportunities and capture potential similarities with other regions.
Regional Assets Mapping
As part of the European Structural and Investment Funds agreement, all EU regions must produce a descriptive analysis on their regional assets, eg: economic performance, employment and infrastructure. This application integrates this data into a searchable platform, in order to enable anyone to access, compare and produce visually appealing reports on regional assets across the EU. This would be useful for anybody wishing to scope potential markets, or benchmark progress in economic development or the growth of particular industries and sectors.
