Smart Specialization preparation in
Lithuania and Baltic States cooperation.
The Way Forward.

Why Smart Specialization?
• Cohesion Funds 2007-2013 – 86 billion € for innovation IMPACT?
•
•
•
•
Lack of inter-institutional coordination
Regions invest in „fashionable“ areas, great overlap
No critical mass
Funding for R&I capacity building, lack of concentration on results
• Economical crisis: a) greater orientation towards efficiency; b)
need to strengthen economic competitiveness
• Transformation requires resource concentration
• Need to improve policy development and implementation

The concept of priority
Priority field – response to the global and national challenges by Lithuanian
R&I system.
Priority – new technologies or processes that have high potential to transform
Lithuanian economy.
What‘s new?
•Entrepreneurial discovery
•Concentration on results
•Intersectorial / interdisciplinary approach
•Identification and implementation of priorities as an inclusive process

Baltic States cooperation.
Situation overview
Implementing the Memorandum of Understanding
• Establishment of expert group for mapping research infrastructures in the
Baltic States
• Establishment of the joint ministerial working group which will work as a
coordinating body for exchange of information and coordination of the
execution of the tasks defined in the MoU
• Exchange information about state of play on smart specialization on a
constant basis
Baltic States cooperation.
Situation overview
Regular meetings:
19th Meeting of the Baltic Ministers of Education and Research, 13 June 2013, Tallinn
Trilateral meeting during Informal Competitiveness Council (research part), 24 July,
2013, Vilnius
Trilateral meeting of state secretaries/vice ministers to discuss smart specialization
issues on 29 April in Riga;
Trilateral meeting during after Competitiveness Council on 26 September in Brussels
Trilateral meeting 27 September, Brussels
Ministers agreed to:
• “Baltic Bonus” idea to be developed (the amount and mechanism of the

• Exchange of info/coordination of the positions:
– facilitate collaboration between Baltic NCPs
– facilitate collaboration between Program committee members.
Technical details will be developed on expert level.
Future cooperation plans
• Launch of data base/website for sharing information on available RI or
unique laboratory equipment (foreseen in 2014);
• Mapping of intellectual potential and R&D activities;
• Coordination of Smart Specialization processes (ongoing);
• Looking for possibilities for Baltic States cooperation in Horizon 2020, Joint
programming and other European initiatives.
For discussion:
• Opening national research programs for Baltic States research institutions.
