A multi-KET (key enabling technologies) approach is most beneficiary for SME in regard to increase in productivitiy, efficiency and market shares. To enable a Pan-European Access for SME on technology services for clean production, a network of premier KET Technology Centres with facilitated one stop shop access, offering SME multi-ket infrastructures and services across borders on pan-european level is generated, involving innovation consultants from the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) being local = at the doorstep of EU`s manufacturing SMEs. Due to the disparity of KET TC in EU28, KET4CleanProduction (KET4CP) enables also a discourse with policy makers on RIS3 and the potential of cross-border collaboration to cover specific SME needs for clean production technologies. KET4CP starts with 12-premier KET TC and 7 EEN as an open innovation ecosystem, with a one stop shop access. KET facilitators support the SME in identifying their specific technology challenge for clean production, propose services and technologies based on innovation potential + need analysis. The fast, flexible services focus on the SME´s business case. After a pilot phase with 20 SME innovation projects/micro grants, the network is scaled up adding 17 KET TC and 21 EEN members, to reach a critical mass of CP technology deployment in SME. Targeted actions stimulate initial requests of >120 SME from > 10 EU MS and a total of 70 SME micro grant projects with min. 140 KET TC. 2 MEUR third party financing go to SME in total. 50 % are targeted for low to modest innovator regions. KET4CP delivers standard procedures / tools for KET TC transnational collaboration and joint service/shared infrastructure, based on business model scenarios stimulating KET TC to collaborate and share clients. KET4CP creates a sustainable platform, a win-win situation for all stakeholders with a high potential for scale up. The aim for 2022 is to have 100 KET TC and 180 EEN members with 1000 SME inquiries p.a.

The objectives of the InnoDK IV project are to: • Provide Key Account Management (KAM) services to Danish businesses, which have been awarded grants under the SME Instrument, Future Emerging Technologies or Fast Track to Innovation programmes • Provide Enhancing Innovation Management Capacity (EIMC) services to SMEs in 2019. Companies will be assessed via the Innovation Health Check tools or other approved tools and depending on results, referred on to relevant organisations in the Danish and European innovation eco-system. In total, under both categories 170 service packages will be carried out. The figure is based on an average of 70 KAM packages coming through EIC programmes, and 100 EIMC cases carried out. If a larger number of grants from EIC are given to Danish participants, the packages will be adjusted accordingly. The Danish EEN has consistently been one of the absolute top performers across the board, with a strong focus on creating impact for client companies. The network ranks overall #1 in number of Partnership Agreements per FTE during the current period, including #1 for PA Research and #1 for PA Technology. Figures from the EASME in 2019 show that the Danish EEN has an average of nearly six times the network average in PA/FTE, while still adhering to the highest standards. Furthermore, the network has an active policy of counting and demonstrating direct impact on behalf of clients and making this information available to national stakeholders every year. This approach will be maintained by the organisations and staff members involved in the Innovation Denmark 2020-2021 project.

The objectives of the Innovation Denmark 2019 project are to: • Provide Key Account Management (KAM) services to Danish businesses, which have been awarded grants under the SME Instrument, Future Emerging Technologies or Fast Track to Innovation programmes • Provide Enhancing Innovation Management Capacity (EIMC) services to SMEs in 2019. Companies will be assessed via the Innovation Health Check tools or other approved tools and depending on results, referred on to relevant organisations in the Danish and European innovation eco-system. In total, under both categories 100 service packages will be carried out. The figure is based on an average of 46 KAM packages coming through EIC programmes, and 44 EIMC cases carried out. If a larger number of grants from EIC are given to Danish participants, the packages will be adjusted accordingly. The figures are based on the experience of the Danish consortium since 2014, which has seen a high and increasing number of cases coming through via the SME Instrument, due to the success Danish companies have in the programme.

The objectives of the Innovation Denmark II project are to: • Provide Key Account Management (KAM) services to Danish businesses, which have been awarded grants under the SME Instrument. • Provide Enhancing Innovation Management Capacity (EIMC) services to SMEs in 2017-2018. Companies will be assessed via the IMP3rove or Innovation Health Check tools and depending on results, referred on to relevant organisations in the Danish and European innovation eco-system. In total, under both categories, a minimum of 138 service packages will be carried out. The figure is based on an average of 69 KAM packages coming through SME Instrument, and 69 EIMC cases carried out. If a larger amount of SMEs is granted SMEI projects, the packages will be adjusted accordingly.
