The REBASING partnership is proud to present the book “The Innovation Competence Broker: bridging firms and R&D institutions”, published in September 2012 by McGraw-Hill.
The aim of the Authors, academic researchers and enterprise service agencies, is to provide a detailed overview of Research-based competence broker activities and profile. The work stems from wider strategic needs for maximizing the impact and use of knowledge in the industrial system. The broker intervention process shows his/her role in helping a company to identify suitable innovation projects, leaving it up to the firm to implement them in cooperation with the R&D provider. In fact, the real added value brought by the broker lies in his/her ability to strategically manage his/her own network, constantly widening and enriching it in order to provide the best answer to companies’ needs.
As a common method, European Union frameworks designed to secure mobility to the European labour market and transparency to EU citizens’ qualifications were applied and integrated. Namely, the broker profile is described according to the European Credit System for Vocational Education and Training (ECVET) and the European Qualification Framework (EQF), in order to enhance profile transparency and ensure permeability of possible related qualifications.
