A = cross-border (52) • B =trans-national (13) • C = interregional (3) WHAT IS INTERREG IVC? STRUCTURAL FUNDS [2007-13 budget is €347bn = ⅓EU budget] Objectives are regional development : • Convergence • Regional Competitiveness • Territorial Cooperation INTERREG IVC €321m = 0.1% of Structural Funds budget • builds networks to develop good practice and facilitate the exchange and transfer of experience by successful regions. • showcases what regions do well, to the benefit of those still investing Priority areas : • innovation and the knowledge economy, • environment and risk prevention Regional Initiative Projects | Capitalisation Projects
WHAT IS CAPITALISATION • Transfer of “previously identified good practices” into mainstream Structural Funds programmes • Must be measurable: • Investment • Competitiveness Convergence • Target is the Regional Operational Programme: policy impact – getting something done • Project output: a Regional Action Plan for each region
PIMMS CAPITAL is a Fast Track Network EuropeanCommission provides label and supports implementation(Assessment questions - available on the RfEC website) 21 networks: 11 INTERREG IVC 10 URBACT II = Accelerate the transfer of good ideas
The PIMMS Transfer Methodology • Seeing-is-believing • Key decision-makers… not just from project-partners but from all relevant organisations (“Deep Delegations”) • Critical Success Factors: what’s the magic ingredient that will allow the transfer • Project has a tight-loose structure: many bilateral actions, so partners set their own agenda • Own-language working: so that key decision-makers can properly participate
The PIMMS CAPITAL Questions • How can mobility management be adopted more effectively in regional transport and sustainability policy? • How to spread the understanding of mobility management? • How to overcome the problem of administrative competencies? • How to demonstrate the impact of mobility management?
The PIMMS CAPITAL Good Practices#1 • it’s GOOD practices not best practices; ie what’s available to share between the partners • Long-list of 81, iteratively reduced to 14 during bid preparation • Being imported a total of 32 times via the project • Each import will be personalised (regionalised) to match the importer’s realities
EXPORT VISITS: OUTCOMES 1 4 more in Sep/Oct!2 6 more delegations 3 “Please identify what aspects of the good practice you consider could be transferred into your Regional Action Plan”
