The main challenge that will be jointly tackled by this project is the shortage of skilled labour force for SMEs in the dominant industries in the area – paper industry and mechanical engineering in Belišće and agriculture in Sombor,together with high unemployment rates and low potential for innovation. In order to address those challenges, this project will establish a stronger cross-border industry-government-university-civil society cooperation (“Quadruple Helix”) and therefore enforce the growth capabilities and employment and innovation potential of local SMEs. This will be done by the creation of two joint cross-border clusters – one in the sector of agriculture and applied new technology in agriculture, located in the city of Sombor, and another one in the sector of paper industry and mechanical engineering, located in the town of Belišće.Since main objective of this project is creation of favourable business environment for growth of capabilities and employment potential of SMEs, the main change it will bring about is strengthened cross-border industry-government-university-civil society cooperation through the establishment of two joint cross-border clusters, coordinated by business support institutions, in the area of Sombor and Belišće. During this project aforementioned clusters will be established, innovative mobile and web-based solution will be introduced and Web-based tool for mapping of the renewable resources in agriculture in the CBC region will be developed. Together with that, two buildings will be adapted and equipped for cross-border clusters purposes. Main target group for this project are SMEs and business support organisations, but local public authorities, universities, interest groups and general public as well. This project will facilitate and significantly improve the collaboration and trade flow between the two areas allowing SMEs to form partnerships with vendors of complementary offerings and internationalise their market range.
