• - Działanie przygotowawcze dla wdrażania funduszy unijnych w nowym okresie
• - Budowanie potencjału ludzkiego, intelektualnego, wiedzy
• - Tworzenie sieci osób przygotowanych merytorycznie do planowania i wdrażania strategii inteligentnych specjalizacji
• - Współpraca między regionami a ministerstwami, między ministerstwami i ich agencjami,
• - Wymiana doświadczeń pomiędzy właściwymi instytucjami regionalnych władz publicznych, między publicznymi aktorami ekosystemu (GUS, GIG,Urząd Skarbowy)
• - Inspiracje dla badań/ewaluacji/eksperci zewnętrzni
• Rekomendacja:
• KONTYNUOWAĆ – rozszerzać zakres tematyczny i aktorów (biznes,naukowcy,społeczeństwo obywatelskie)

• Rozporządzenie EFRR Art.3f
• Tworzenie sieci, współpracę i wymianę doświadczeń pomiędzy właściwymi instytucjami regionalnych, lokalnych, miejskich i innych władz publicznych, partnerami gospodarczymi i społecznymi oraz odpowiednimi podmiotami reprezentującymi społeczeństwo obywatelskie, o których mowa w art. 5 ust. 1 rozporządzenia (UE) nr 1303/2013, badania, działania przygotowawcze i budowanie potencjału.

• The scope of support from the ERDF is defined in the Art.3(f) of the Regulation (EU) No1301/2013. The ERDF shall support networking, cooperation and exchange of experience between competent regional, local, urban and other public authorities, economic and social partners and relevant bodies representing civil society, studies, preparatory actions and capacity building in order to contribute to the investment priorities set out in Article 5 of the Regulation (EU) No1301/2013 including strengthening research, technological development and innovation.
• It means that setting up, improving and running a good governance of smart specialisation strategy with monitoring and evaluation mechanism in place is eligible under ERDF Regulation.

• As far as technical assistance is concerned it should be noticed that technical assistance of the programme should be first of all used to support the authorities which administer and implement ESI funds-funded programmes (namely Managing Authorities, Intermediate Bodies, Audit Authorities, and Certified Authorities) to perform tasks assigned to them. Given to the fact that Smart Specialisation (RIS3) strategies might- and should- indeed go beyond the scope of the ESI funds, budgetary constraints concerning technical assistance allocation should be taken into account.

• In case Poland decides to use its technical assistance to finance support to monitoring and evaluation of RIS3 (e.g. in the framework of implementing its action plan due to non-fulfilment the EAC linked to TO1) it should be well reflected in the description of the technical assistance priority axis of the operational programme. There should be also clear demarcation line established between technical assistance priority and other investment objectives.
Main short-comings / recommendations • Stakeholder involvement / entrepreneurial discovery process /
inter-ministerial cooperation weak or still in progress
• Specificity of identified priorities - RIS3 specialisation fields (too generic, no competitive advantage check compared to other regions/MS, not selective)
• Policy-mix / “Retro-fitting”: existing innovation support system is starting point for reflections on priorities, not result of vision and objective setting or critical evaluation of the existing support. Few advanced innovation support forms. Lack of intervention logic.
• Framework outlining available budgetary resources for research and innovation not existing or does not allow to identify concentration of ressources on RIS3 priorities
• Adequate monitoring system missing: unfit to detect tracking of implementation of specific objectives
Monitoring is for You not You for monitoring

• Monitoring
• Monitoring of outputs means to observe whether intended products are delivered and whether implementation is on track
• Monitoring also observes changes in the result indicators (policy monitoring)

„strategia inteligentnej specjalizacji” oznacza krajowe lub regionalne strategie innowacyjne ustanawiające priorytety w celu uzyskania przewagi konkurencyjnej poprzez rozwijanie i łączenie swoich mocnych stron w zakresie badań naukowych i innowacji z potrzebami biznesowymi w celu wykorzystywania pojawiających się możliwości i rozwoju rynku…
Example

• • Investment priority: promoting business
• investment in R&I (TO – Strengthening RTDI)
• • Specific Objective: To increase co-operation
• between enterprises & research institutes
• • Instrument: Research vouchers for enterprises – must be spent in research centres
• • Output Indicator: Number of enterprises cooperating with research centres
• • Result Indicator: Share of enterprise clients in
• sales revenue of research centres (Source:
• National Tax Service; Baseline: 14%; Target:
• 25% by 2022)

The key to a good RIS3 is enterpreneurial discovery process

fulfilment
1.1 Research & Innovation
A national or regional smart specialisation strategy is in place that: - contains a monitoring mechanism
Action 1 : Preparation of the monitoring mechanism, including:
Step 1: appointing leading body/ies responsible for coordination and facilitating development and implementation of RIS3 in MS/region ensuring active participation of stakeholders (quadruple helix: BUSINESS, RESEARCH, CIVIL SOCIETY, ADMINISTRATION) Step 2: Setting up an ongoing mechanism ensuring active participation of stakeholders: workshops, seminars, surveys, meetings, focal groups and any other type of participatory methods involving stakeholders (quadruple helix:business, research, civil society, administration) to identify priorities, emerging market opportunities and R&I capacities which could build competitive advantage of MS/region through matching research own strengths with business needs .

A national or regional smart specialisation strategy is in place that: - contains a monitoring mechanism
Action 1 : Preparation of the monitoring mechanism, including:
Step 3: setting up an evidence gathering system e.g. economic observatory, good practices repository, qualitative and quantitative analytical tools to help having informed decisions (i.e. output and results indicators) and describing how the follow-up to the findings of the monitoring will be taken into account (e.g. on-going evaluation method) Step 4: Developing roadmaps for specialisation areas .
