The main objective of WP4 is to analyze the existing film-related innovation systems in small EU territories, address their structural limitations and coordination failures, pilot novel solutions to improve their functioning and competitiveness and bring about sustainable growth. WP4 builds on knowledge derived from WP 5-7 that addresses different phases of the value chain.
The knowledge is used to develop evidence-based rationales for innovative interventions. Interventions and pilots aim to bring about systemic change. The focus is on green and sustainable strategies, IPR management, decentralization of market governance models, new forms of financing production, transformative business models, and strengthening the role of film tech startups in the national and EU innovation systems.
All pilots will be developed, tested, and implemented in dialogues with stakeholders. The work on pilots will be complemented by work on improving innovation systems coordination. An end goal is to work towards better complementarity of cultural and innovation policy frameworks, enabling improved coordination and the strengthening of cross-sectoral (film and ICT sectors) innovation systems.
