3. Geographical focus of 2nd tranche mapping
4. Progress to date on 2nd Tranche Mapping
5. Question: Regional support to clusters? Kragujevac RDA comparatively experienced in cluster support
Believe they can support several initiatives (wine producers, textile, furniture manufacturers)
Clusters development v. Development of a cluster
Support to RDAs on multi-sector, regional initiatives v. Support to a number of single cluster initiatives?
6. Progress on action planning with Software & Embedded Cluster Meetings with:
Cluster manager
Key stakeholders (incl. SIEPA, SCoC, Ministries, Donors)
Individual cluster members
to discuss sector issues, institutional support, company & cluster goals
7. Key issues
Complexity of eco-system that the cluster wants to create, and management capacity
Cluster’s main goals v. individual company goals
Prioritization of goals, and action plan with SMART objectives and near-term results
Finding projects, fostering innovation, capacity building
Formation of regional IT clusters taking place and interaction with them?
8. Cluster initiative: Product testing STE Professor Mauricio Frota
Focus on Software & Embedded and Automotive Components sectors and quality infrastructure needs
EMC testing is a priority for Embedded systems
Automotive sector testing needs still unclear
Looking at laboratory infrastructure in Serbia
Kvalitet Nis appears to have potential for electromagnetic compatibility testing though ownership appear to be an obstacle
Similar problems likely to arise with other labs
9. Cluster Open House 21st July
10. Cluster Workshop 22nd July 8 grantee cluster (minus Flower Cluster & Royal Vacation) plus Dundjer construction cluster
MoERD and SCoC
Cluster professionals from Hungary, Croatia, and Bulgaria
Presentations on 1st tranche mapping, MoERD cluster support, POLUS programme
Break-out groups & discussion on clusters’ common needs
Goal: To set up association!
11. Clusters networking at Serbian Chamber of Commerce
12. Cluster network initiative Clusters unanimously support association
Serbian Chamber of Commerce offers roof to to-be-formed association
Questions about the best form for the association
Working Group formed to consider how to form
Application for RSEDP 2 grant scheme not impossible though a challenge
SECEP could provide immediate expert advice to founding clusters and facilitate action plan for grant application
13. Support organization review (clusters and supply chains)
Support Organization Review (component 2.8 and 4.1) ) for clusters and supply chains continuing
Need to understand capacities and know-how of BSOs to support cluster and supply chain development initiatives
