Synergies for Greener European Horizons
As part of the European Green Deal with the overarching goal of making the EU climate-neutral by 2050, the strategic objective of the project is to enhance cluster-based Romanian–Norwegian-Icelandic cooperation in the field of green transition by making use of all available bilateral and European support mechanisms.
Plan-C
The project Plan-C is targeting the mobilization of the plastics and plastics processing machine industry for a clean and circular economy and follows the goal of leaving no one behind and understanding the economic challenges and financial opportunities of the transition into a greener industry. Also, the project aims to enable companies to recognize the potential of a green and circular economy in the Danube Region.
Innovative services for twin transition in SMEs and clusters
The strategic objective of the project is to increase the competitiveness of Romanian companies based on green industry (eco) innovation, digitalisation approaches and internationalisation, with a particular focus on strengthening the Romanian-Norwegian business & innovation relationships.
ReStartSMEs
ReStartSMEs is an EU Commission funded initiative aiming to support manufacturing SMEs in post-COVID-19 crisis recovery through transitioning into Industry 5.0, a more sustainable and resilient approach to automation. The goal of the project is to boost SMEs affected by the pandemic in the sectors of automotive, machinery & equipment, food and textile. By matching SMEs with technology providers through Strategic Alliances, beneficiaries will access new technologies such as AI, robotics, cybersecurity and IoT as well as assistance in the innovation of process, product and business models.
GoDanuBio
The long term goal of the project is to enhance the socioeconomic status of the regions, contribute to environmental, climate and resource protection as well as foster development of rural areas. An ecosystem for systematic multi-level governance with actors from the interested public, academia, industry and political decision making will be developed. That ecosystem gives space for co-creation and new forms of integrated urban-rural cooperation leading to increased institutional capacity to tackle demographic change. Thus, overcoming the persistent lack of engagement of societal actors in the political system by giving them ownership to address demographic change.
DanubePeerChains

The project is focused on three bio-based value chains with high potential, such as Phytopharma, Eco-construction and Bio-based packing (bioplastic). Moreover, the hemp-industry has been included as well because hemp can be seen as a raw material for all three value chains.
