Cieľ projektu | Nové inovácie alebo transformácia na udržateľné hospodárstvo vyžaduje vytrvalosť, ale často sa zameriava na krátkodobé, ľahké, merateľné ciele a požiadavky na finančné prostriedky a dlhodobá strategická kapacita sa môžu znížiť. Mnohé regióny opisujú výzvy pri budovaní trvalých, dlhodobo udržateľných inovačných systémov, ktoré riešia výzvy súčasnosti a zároveň podporujú prechod na udržateľné hospodárstvo z dlhodobého hľadiska. Cieľom projektu je bojovať proti nedostatku zručností a rámca pre dlhodobú spoluprácu s aktérmi v S3 na regionálnej úrovni. Zámerom je vytvoriť rámce pre dlhodobé siete spolupráce so zainteresovanými stranami a aktérmi v oblasti inteligentnej špecializácie v rámci regiónov. Zapojenie EUBA bude zahŕňať poskytovanie poradenstva, poskytovanie odborných znalostí a úzku spoluprácu s partnerstvom s cieľom zabezpečiť medziregionálny vzdelávací proces, najmä – vypracovanie prípravného dotazníka a metodiky pre proces partnerského hodnotenia, poskytnutie spätnej väzby a odporúčaní k získaným zisteniam; mapovanie, analýza a identifikácia osvedčených postupov medzi zapojenými regiónmi a načrtávanie návrhov na ich ďalší prenos a implementáciu na územnej úrovni; podpora zapojených regiónov v (prípravných) seminároch pre procesy inteligentnej špecializácie, ale aj vytváranie sietí medzi rôznymi zainteresovanými stranami, zefektívnenie procesu vzdelávania, medziregionálna výmena skúseností a poznatkov prostredníctvom aktívneho zapojenia sa do stretnutí s rôznymi zainteresovanými stranami a regionálnymi aktérmi. To všetko sa uskutoční v rámci územnej spolupráce medzi partnerskými regiónmi a prostredníctvom výmeny osvedčených postupov v oblasti zapojenia mládeže, pričom z výsledkov projektu bude profitovať aj slovenské prostredie, keďže získané zručnosti a know-how budú plne uplatniteľné. |

Projektové výstupy, aktivity | 1. Good Practice: Coordinated Agenda Development for Tourism – Småland, Öland and Gotland – Tourism in Småland, Öland and Gotland is strong but fragmented, highly seasonal, and facing major challenges in sustainability, digitalisation, and skills supply.

Cieľ projektu | Projekt navrhuje vyvinúť schémy a nástroje, ktoré rezonujú s mladými ľuďmi, povzbudzujú ich, aby posilnili svoj hlas v rozhodovacích procesoch využívaním zdrojov a podporou medzisektorovej spolupráce. Táto téma, ako zosúladenie mestských stratégií so záujmami mládeže, bola medzerou medzi príslušnými regiónmi a partnerstvom – pretože znovu spája regióny s takými extrémnymi špecifikami týkajúcimi sa mládeže. Celkovým zámerom je zlepšiť politiky, ktoré umožňujú aktívnu účasť mládeže na rozhodovacích procesoch a živote komunít, čo vedie k formovaniu prostredia, v ktorom sa mladí ľudia cítia oprávnení zmysluplne prispievať k spoločenskému pokroku a rozvoju. Dosiahnutie projektového výsledku vyžaduje zameranie na: riešenie prekážok a administratívnych prekážok pri vytváraní pocitu, že si mládež váži a aby zvážila vyhliadky na usadenie sa vo svojom rodisku a aktívne sa zapájala do komunity; Zapojenie zainteresovaných strán; Prenos vedomostí a skúseností z týchto vyspelých regiónov do tých, ktoré majú nižšie riešenia pre mládež; vytváranie nástrojov a mechanizmov na základe získaných skúseností; Dosiahnutie sociálneho začlenenia, začlenenie mladých emigrantov, začlenenie mladých diaspór. Pozícia EUBA spočíva v uľahčení medziregionálneho vzdelávacieho procesu, byť zodpovedný za spoločné navrhovanie usmerňujúcich dokumentov pre všetky fázy projektu a spoluorganizovať aktivity výmeny skúseností; bude koordinovať vypracovanie správ o miestnych analýzach a zbierok všeobecných lekárov a uľahčí partnerské preskúmania medzi pilotnými skupinami, čo umožní pilotným programom s podobnými kontextmi a cieľmi vzájomne preskúmať svoje analýzy. To všetko sa uskutoční v rámci územnej spolupráce medzi partnerskými regiónmi a prostredníctvom výmeny osvedčených postupov v oblasti zapojenia mládeže, pričom z výsledkov projektu bude profitovať aj slovenské prostredie, keďže získané zručnosti a know-how budú plne uplatniteľné. |

International projects of the Faculty of Business Management
In addition to the national research projects APVV, VEGA and KEGA, thanks to an active approach and international cooperation, the FBM has managed to expand its scope to the area of transnational projects INTERREG CENTRAL EUROPE. Overall, the FBM UEBA project-research team has been part of three Interreg CE projects in recent years, RESTAURA, ProsperAMnet and in the case of the ENTER-transfer project the faculty was the lead partner.
CURRENT PROJECTS
Interreg CENTRAL EUROPE (CE1569) – ProsperAMnet
The aim of the project is to support manufacturers in Central Europe to improve in the field of advanced services. Intensifying competition and changes in demand are forcing manufacturers to add industrial services to their product portfolio. Especially for SMEs, the provision and export of industrial services is a key strategic driver of value and sustainable competitiveness. Through AI tools, strategies and networking, the project aims to improve the economic performance of industrial SMEs in CE. The project consortium consists of 10 partners from 7 countries, with FBM UEBA being the only representative of the Slovak Republic in the project. The project is currently ongoing and should be completed in 2022. The project was successfully finished in June 2019. Further details about the project can be found at the dedicated Interreg CE website: https://www.interreg-central.eu/Content.Node/ProsperAMnet.html
FINISHED PROJECTS
Interreg CENTRAL EUROPE (CE1158) – ENTER-transfer
The main theme of the ENTER-transfer project was the topic of business succession, which is one of the most conspicuous problems in Central Europe, with significant economic and social impacts. Every year a number of existing family businesses have to close down due to their inability to find a suitable successor to take over the management of the company. Moreover, with the impact of the current pandemic situation, it became an even more highlighted trend. ENTER-transfer was a
3-year long project with a total budget of over 2 million Euro. Its outputs were a series of SME training sessions and several practical tools and strategies to facilitate the management of business succession by the companies themselves. The project consortium consisted of 8 partners from 5 countries, with Faculty of Business Management UEBA in the role of the lead partner. The project was successfully finished in May 2020. Further details about the project can be found at the dedicated Interreg CE website: https://www.interreg-central.eu/Content.Node/ENTER-transfer.html
Interreg CENTRAL EUROPE (CE339) – RESTAURA
The project was aimed at revitalising cultural heritage through PPP-projects. Within the Central European area there are many historic buildings that are unused and dilapidated. The public sector is often unable to cover the costs of their reconstruction and revitalisation. Therefore, it is necessary to look for other ways of financing, such as through PPP projects. The project focused its activities in four countries: Poland, Slovenia, Croatia and Slovakia, the consortium had 10 partners. As a result of RESTAURA project, participating cities obtained a complete documentation on the potential PPP-project in their territory. The project was successfully finished in June 2019. Further details about the project can be found at the dedicated Interreg CE website: http://interreg-central.eu/Content.Node/RESTAURA.html
We are constantly looking for new projects and opportunities, in which we could provide our skills and experience. Should you want to discuss potential partnership, feel free to reach out to our project coordinator:
