New services assisting online collaboration for innovation help SMEs to access a broader
range of potential innovation partners and mobilise them in a timely manner for concrete
projects.

The efficiency of innovation support service provision - for example but not limited to the
services of Enterprise Europe Network – is enhanced.
Resources in public innovation support are reoriented from information and brokerage
functions – which can to a large extend be automated – to higher value added functions like
the identification of opportunities and the animation of project development.
