1 Smart specialisation, integrated strategies and territorial cohesion: tension or synergies 27 September 2012 - Brussels ESPON 2013 Programme: The territorial dimension of EU policy

2 The ESPON 2013 Programme Role in Structural Funds 2007-2013: – Support EU Cohesion Policy development with pan- European, comparable facts and evidence on Territorial Structures, Trends, Perspectives and Policy Impacts – Focus on European Regions and Cities, and revealing territorial capital, potentials and challenges. Budget 2007-13: – 47 mill Euro (ERDF 34 mill. Euro, plus 13 mill. Euro from 31 countries) Programme Priorities: – P 1: Applied Research – P 2: Targeted Analyses based on Stakeholder interest – P 3: Scientific Platform and Tools – P 4: Capitalisation

3 Themes addressed by ESPON Applied Research (P1) Territorial Impact Assessment Urban Agglomerations Climate Change Rural Areas Growth poles Migratory Flows EU DirectivesAttractiveness Green Economy Demography Energy Regions Innovation Territorial cooperation Accessibility Continental flows Services of General Interest Cities Land use European Seas Economy Governance Specific Types of Territories Territorial Scenarios and Vision

4 Themes of ESPON Targeted Analyses (P2) Cross-border Spatial Development Smart Institutions Airports Growth Poles in South-East Europe Rural Regions Territorial Performance Monitoring Central Europe Territorial Impact Assessment Indicators for Territorial Cohesion/Spatial Planning Integrated Strategies Landscape Monitoring regional R&D Best Metropolises

5 ESPON 2013 Database Territorial Indicators/ INTERCO ESPON Hyper Atlas Detecting Territorial Potentials Territorial Monitoring in MacroRegion – Baltic Sea Region European Territorial Monitoring and Reporting Territorial Evidence Packs for Structural Funds Programmes ESPON Atlas 2014On-line Mapping Tool Typology Compilation European Urban Benchmarking Web Tool Scientific Platform and Tools (P3)

6 New Final Results until summer 2013 (1) 10 final Applied Research projects: Land-use, Territorial cooperation, Transport accessibility, Secondary growth poles, Specific types of territories, Knowledge and Innovation, Globalisation, European seas, Services of general interest and Spatial indicators for EU 2020. 11 final Targeted Analyses: Potentials for rural regions, ESPON and TIA, Cross-border strategies, Regional integrated strategies, Metropoles in Central Europe, Metropolises (Paris, Berlin, Warsaw), Territorial performance monitoring, Migration in rural regions, Territorial governance, Regional monitoring of R&D, Indicators for territorial cohesion and planning.

7 Supportive ESPON Publications in 2012-2013 ESPON publications envisaged during the next year: –Territorial Evidence Fact sheets in early October 2012 for 65 ETC programmes –TIA quick check and guidance in November 2012 –Territorial Observation 7 on Climate Change and Hazards in January 2013 –Final ESPON project Overview in February 2013 –Territorial Observation 8 on Gateway Cities in March 2013 –Atlas on EU 2020 Strategy in March 2013 –Synthesis Report 2 in May 2013 –Territorial Evidence Packs in May 2013 –Territorial Observation 9 on Targeted Analyses in June 2013 –Handbook on Territorial Governance in September 2013

8 ESPON Events in 2012-2013 Seminars, conferences and workshops: –ESPON Workshop on Innovation and Knowledge on 5 October 2012 in Bruxelles –ESPON Workshop at Open Days on 10-11 October 2012 in Bruxelles –ESPON Seminar (internal) on 5-6 December 2012 in Paphos with theme of European Neighbourhood –ESPON Scientific Conference in February-March 2013 in Luxembourg –ESPON High-level Conference in May 2013 in Bruxelles –ESPON Workshop on Gateway Cities in May 2013 –ESPON Open Seminar on 12-13 June 2013 in Dublin

9 Demands from EU Policy and EC Regulations Key demands –Territorial dimension due to Territorial Cohesion in Treaty –Place-based and Integrated approach –Evidence informed policy and programming –Concentration on priority themes for investment (CSF) –Concrete results (important for recovery) –EU policy affects regions differently –Exploring diversity through tailor made policy mixes with integrated solutions

10 Total Pillar 1 support per Agricultural Work Unit (1999) Concentration in prosperous northern areas of Europe

11 Total Pillar 2 support per Agricultural Work Unit (1999) more dispersed, but still mainly reaching richer regions

12 Road infrastructure development in Baseline Scenario, 2030 Source: TRANSTOOL Model, 2008 Rail infrastructure development in Baseline Scenario, 2030 Source: TRANSTOOL Model, 2008 TIPTAP project: the new Transport Policy

13 Economic Growth (GDP per cap.) in Baseline Scenario, 2030 Source: TRANSTOOL Model, 2008 Congestion Costs (time in cong./ total time) in Baseline Scenario, 2030 TIPTAP project: Impacts of the new Transport Policy

14 Including a European perspective Using ESPON in analyses for integrated regional strategies: –Openness for adding a European perspective –Benchmarking/learning the strategy area within numerous themes related to smart, sustainable and inclusive growth –Look for swot’s of (1) the entire area, (2) for particular regions and cities, (3) across borders and (4) in the wider context (neighbours and networks) –Inform the policy makers on the specific diversity of potentials and challenges –Be precise on where within the strategy area what smart specialisation could be implemented most efficient as actions –Propose a “balanced” strategy with mix of actions in different places that can support the policy momentum necessary
