19. Key messages SoE are excellent projects, not left-overs from Horizon 2020 Great opportunity to exploit H2020 first-class evaluation system Keep the process as simple as possible: no need to re-evaluate the content Different support can be provided: grants/loans/guarantee/… general support No guarantee of 'automatic' alternative funding and/or to the funding intensity of H2020 19

20. Universities in S3 Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) can play a key role in the design and implementation of S3. They are among the few institutions that act as 'boundary spanners', bridging all three elements of the 'Knowledge Triangle' (Research, Education and Innovation). HESS project (DGEAC+DGJRC) focuses on how HEI can contribute to the successful implementation of S3: To help build innovation capabilities of regions by strengthening the role of HEIs in regional partnerships. To promote the integration of higher education with research, innovation and regional development in S3 policy mixes, particularly in the use of European Structural and Investment (ESI) Funds. 20

21. Boundary spanning players to boost inter-institutional capacity Role in generating knowledge througout RIS3 evolutionary process and identifying capacities of the region HEI integrate the knowledge triangle with research, education and outreach missions and are key in building innovation ecosystems HEI develop regional human ressources and attract talent Research infrastructures and international networks 21 Universities in S3

22. Knowledge Alliances (KA) KA aim at strengthening Europe's innovation capacity and at fostering innovation in higher education, business and the broader socio-economic environment. They intend to: develop new, innovative and multidisciplinary approaches to teaching and learning stimulate entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial skills of higher education teaching staff and company staff facilitate the exchange, flow and co-creation of knowledge. 22
