Phase 1 – FP7 WP2013Start-up the I4MS Ecosystem

Phase 2 – H2020 WP 2014/15Organically grow the I4MS Ecosystem

Phase 3 – H2020 WP 2016/17Nurture the ecosystem:

Concentrate on EU added value

Organically grow the I4MS ecosystem Regions/MSs with Digitising Industry initiatives

Establish a catalogue of initiatives EU-wide Reinforce roots/links to national/regional initiatives Further concentrate EU funding on cross-border experiments

Other regions, in particular less developed regions Launch a Mentoring & Sponsorship programme for new hubs Co-fund innovation hubs thru EFSI, ESIF, innovation vouchers

Identify international collaboration opportunities Discuss at World Manufacturing Forum 2016

Mentoring & Sponsorship Programmefor new Innovation Hubs

Bootstrap ~25 innovation hubs in "non-I4MS regions" RTOs, academia

Investment shared by phase 2 I4MS projects: +- 1.5 M€ Largely foreseen in phase 2 proposals

Mechanisms:1. Call for expression of interest (EoI) for new hubs (Q4 2015)2. I4MS competence centres as mentors each launch 5 sponsoring

subcontracts (6 months in Q2 + Q3 2016, 30-50k€) Role of Mentoring & Sponsorship actions

Investigate digital needs of regional smart specialisation Link needs to I4MS projects and competences 3 feasibility studies for Best Practice experiments Establish links with local funding bodies
