  9. CLUSTERING IN ACTION Weaknesses ERDF Projects Have a High Administrative Overhead (Much greater than FP7) INTERREG IVa Manche Is Burdensome The cost eligibility and reporting criteria do not reflect practices in the private sector, and these programmes are to some extent excluding business participation

  10. CLUSTERING IN ACTION Weaknesses HOWEVER We are still participating and so are our businesses; therefore the programmes are worthwhile but we need to examine the burdens imposed!

  11. Market Opportunities • Construction & operations management • Shipbuilding, leisure marine, marine equipment • Shipping, logistics, safety • Asset maintenance & intervention planning • Marine environmental risk management • Ecosystem & MPA management • Risk assessment • Marine security & resources (EEZ) management • Monitoring resource extraction (energy, aggregates etc) • Mapping & surveillance & management
