CODICES
This action is the result of a collaboration agreement between the Spanish Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, the Extremadura Regional Government and FUNDECYT. It puts into practise a series of actions for the promotion of Research, Development and Innovation (RTD+i) within the Extremadura entrepreneurship by means of the following units:
•Promotion and management of projects
•Technological surveillance and technical prospective
•Training and dissemination of RTD actions
•Transference of technology
Our main aim is contributing to the technological emergence and excellence research in our Region entrepreneurship, in order to make them cope with the research and technological development activities which are normally not afforded by them.

DINEX PLAN
It is a funding action, aiming to promote the participation of Extremadura entrepreneurship and other entities, such as research centres, University, chambers of commerce, etc., in national and international RTD+i projects.
Running out this plan, Fundecyt collaborates with two experienced consultancy firms. One of them is from Extremadura, and collaborates promoting and involving projects in national calls (PROFIT, CDTI, etc.). The other national firm is specialised in consultancy and promotion of European projects (7th Framework Programme, etc.).
As regards elaboration of national and European proposals, collaboration with two private consultancy firms is relevant for completing the whole assessment of companies and entities, that starts with the identification of consortium partners, and the fitting of ideas to the adequate funding calls, following with the coordination of partners, and, finally, ending with the elaboration and composition of the final proposal.
The variety of beneficiary companies and entities within this action is as wide as the variety of open calls for RTD+i projects: from entities without research capacity, to technology-based companies. It is specially intended for SME without research capacity aiming to participate in RTD+i projects.
IRC CENEO
The CENEO Innovation-Relay Centre (IRC) is member of the European Network of IRCs, cofinanced by the EU Framework Programme.
The IRCs consist of a network of organisms aiming to promote transference of technology among European companies, universities and research centres. This network supports companies offering their technology throughout European and associated countries, as well as, it supports technology searching for the companies to be more competitive.
IRCs cover different services for transnational technology promotion and cooperation:
•Identifying and disseminating technological demands
•Identifying and disseminating technological offers
•Searching for partners to participate in European projects

RED PymERA
PymERA is a national network created by Science and Technology Ministry, in which organizations from all the Spanish autonomous regions take part to encourage and facilitate the participation of Spanish SME s in projects within EU Framework Programmes for Research and Innovation.
Main aims:
•To promote SME s participation in projects within Framework Programmes, in any of their categories.
•To inform and advise to SME about opportunities, features and requirements of Framework Programme Projects.
•To involve collaboration between SMEs, Universities and Innovation and Technology Centres in European Projects.
One of PymERA network services is centralizing and coordinating partner search activities to compound Consortium Projects and giving support to the Network members. Companies, research groups and technological centres with an interest in partner searching should fill in a PS Response form, including their profile and contact data.

REGSTRAT
The RegStrat project is a Co-ordination Action supported by the Regions of Knowledge 2-Program of the European Commission’s DG Research. The project main objective is to bring together, from research and practice, the dispersed knowledge regarding SPI tools such as Foresight, Technology Assessment, Evaluation, Regional Innovation Audits.
RegStrat is based on an ambitious integrating approach harnessing synergies from various knowledge stocks regarding strategic policy intelligence (SPI) tools, at different governance levels, in different policy and policy research fields, and in different actor communities of regional, national and sectorial european innovation systems.
RegStrat aims, therefore, at supporting regional actors in the acquisition of such expertise. As strategic knowledge is both expensive to generate and difficult to translate into day-to-day decision-making, it is also important to facilitate networking and knowledge-exchange between regions and with EU level organizations, taking advantage of the different regional structures, preconditions and processes. Exchanging strategic knowledge across a broader range of policy fields, policy actors and governance levels also meets the growing demand for greater transparency and participation in public decisions.
One of the project actions is the collection of the different SPI tools which best suit the innovation policies for each region. Extremadura will be taken as a model for analysis of this combination of tools to give the region added value, according to the objectives of Lisbon and Barcelona agendas on RTD+i.

DISCOVER NE ROMANIA
The main objective of the project DISCOVER NE ROMANIA is to develop and implement a Regional Innovation Strategy in North-East Region Romania that will increase its economic potential, based on an innovation support system, in order to effect a significant change in the concept of innovation and development of innovative business through the promotion of competitiveness in all sectors.
The partners involved in the implementation of project are:
•NORTH-EAST Regional Development Agency (NE RDA) – Romania
•METRON SRL – Italy; FUNDECYT – Spain; INFIDE – Spain
The duties of FUNDECYT as partner of the project are to supply the Romanian institutions the necessary methodology, knowledge and know-how to develop a Regional Innovation Strategy. Due to the previous knowledge of Fundecyt in this sector, it will analyse the existing information sources on the regional economic situation, the sectorial trends (SMEs evolution, privatisation process, the research and TT situation, national policy for R&D, etc) and EU Regulations.

EXPERTIA “Alliances for Knowledgeâ€
This project, coordinated by FUNDECYT, aims at:
•Improving cooperation between regional knowledge-generating entities (University, technological centres) and knowledge-demanding entities (enterprises)
•Creation of a group of regional experts (university members, entrepreneurship) to play a influent role in European and national decision-making organisms involved in RTD+i (expert evaluators, quality certifiers, etc.)
Project main actions
•Disseminating the importance of being EU expert evaluator throughout the university and entrepreneurship
•Road-showing for cooperation among university, companies, and seedbed business centres
•Fostering university-entrepreneurship collaboration agreements
•Involving entities in EU projects
ERA-MORE
The European Network of Mobility Centres (ERA-MORE), developed under the European Commission programme, it´s a very effective tool to structure Research collaboration between different countries.
The main objective is to increase the productivity of european research, developing a more dynamic scientific landscape in Europe.
The Net enables researchers geographically spread across Europe and beyond, to maintain a space on the internet where they can share complementary information and experiences, documents, participate in discussion fora and many other advantages.
The Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology-FECYT is the organization in charge of the implementation in Spain of the Spanish Mobility Centres, through the Spanish Mobility Centre.
Although national research programmes have been carried out largely independently of one another, the network members are currently strenghtening links, establishing a platform for exchange with the prospect of CONVERGENCE around common principles, while respecting diversity.
