GlaCerHub offers great potential to act as a catalyst for boosting R&D and industry applications in two widening countries, Slovakia and the Czech Republic. The GlaCerHub consortium will bring together academic institutions, industry, local government, and 3rd sector organisations from these countries with the goal of reducing: - Innovation divide in widening countries, lack of innovation ecosystems, lack of linkages between academia, business, government, and society; - Lack of placed based innovation culture linked with strategic agenda aligned with regional or national smart specialisation strategies; - Lack of synergies developed with European Innovation Ecosystems and the European Institute of Innovation & Technology (EIT).
