TRINNO year 2 moved the project focus towards business support ecosystems that link digital innovation to the local economy. 

Work-flow of TRINNO Consortium has been driven by the need to concretely focus on desired policy improvements at local level on Digital Innovation by linking it to TRINNO Year 1 main output (the Business Ecosystem Components Report) to Year 2. By the end of Year 2 (March 2018) a Digital Innovation in the local Economy Report will be prepared. 

The methodology adopted can be summarised in the following main points:

a) Exchange started from a study visit in Arezzo, to discover Tuscan Good Practices linking traditional economic sectors and innovation/digital tools;

b) Partners carried out a local analysis aimed at:

1. Providing an overview of necessary business support services to link digital innovation with tradition, including potential Good Practices;

2. Focusing on their chosen policy instruments to develop a regional Dream Action Plan (first step to the Regional Action Plan actual development);

c) Consultation: a 2nd on-line consultation has been launched at regional and EU level. At regional level participants have been asked to comment on the proposed requirements for Business Support to Link innovation / tradition and Developed Dream Action Plans.

This input will contribute to the Digital Innovation in the local Economy Report finalisation and to the Regional Action Plans validation. You can enter the on-line consultation HERE

The final list of necessary business support services to link digital innovation with tradition is summarised in the Figure bellow.
