Report on the Balkan innovation scenario
Prepared by:
UNIVERSITY OF MONTENEGRO – FACULTY OF DRAMATIC ARTS
UNIVERSITY “MEDITERRANEAN” PODGORICA – FACULTY OF VISUAL ARTS
The document “Report on the Balkan innovation scenario” will discuss the needs of the Higher education students and teachers, together with the needs of the Small and Medium sized Enterprises in order to define the contents of the topics needed to be included in the introductory course with the focus on advanced modules. Furthermore, the document will examine the topic beyond the educational framework by covering the structure of the creative value chain from education to employability. In order to match partner countries’ needs with the European standards related to knowledge and market skills, the paper will identify a) EU and Western Balkan experiences and b) best practices to design a possible exploitation model. By using comparable analysis, this report will also assist in identifying the framework for the later project activities, through i) Contextual review: Business and Academic, Surveys & interviews, and ii) Mapping/networking of stakeholders.
This paper will assist the project’s reach by linking current partners with other relevant organizations of the partner country. It will include relevant public and private stakeholders in the education and business sectors that can share best practices in the fields of education, business innovation, enterprise and entrepreneurship.
The added value of this activity can also be found in raising awareness among academic community, educational decision-makers and external stakeholders, on the importance of this type of research in Higher Education system, as well as strengthening the ties among project partners (better mutual understanding of curricular structures).
