BeBizBlueprint document

‘Evidence’ based on the data gathering tool, supported by case studies and qualitative data on an annual basis and at the end of the project on the effectiveness of the project strategy overall and its individual parts – what was effective or ineffective, in part or as a whole and with which target audience in which circumstances – to be collated into a usable tool for all involved in innovation, knowledge transfer and business development across all member states and regions taking into account the different levels of experience in commercialising publicly funded research. The Blueprint will contain an Executive Summary, tailored messages for all stakeholders on key learning/information points (research projects, SMEs, innovation & knowledge transfer facilitators and experts, policy and development managers), descriptions and outcomes for all activities, plus contributions from the 45 BeBizGo Award winners on attitudes and direct impact on them and the project/idea post the awards. The HLAB will also contribute to and critique the draft, and the Media Advisory Panel asked to contribute. Endorsement before publication will be sought from high profile organisations such as the German Bioeconomy Panel, the UK’s Trade & Industry/Business Skills team, EC directorates and partner EBN and Teagasc’s own networks and sources representative of the spectrum of experience of the Bioeconomy and commercialisation of publicly funded research overall. The Blueprint will be available as a download with hard copies produced for specific purposes and audiences. MIN 6 PM; PRA 1PM; EBN 1PM; TEA 1PM
