Project name: Enabling Development of Sustainable Cross-Border Clusters - CBC Clusters

Project description:

The main challenge that will be jointly solved by this project is the lack of skilled labor for small and medium-sized enterprises in the dominant industries of mechanical engineering, paper industry in Belišće and agriculture in Sombor, together with high unemployment rate and low potential for innovation. This will be done by creating two joint cross-border clusters - one in the sector of agriculture and the application of new technologies in agriculture, which will be located in the city of Sombor, and the other in the sector of paper industry and mechanical engineering, which will be located in the city of Belišće.

Since the main goal of this project is to create a favorable business environment for the growth of capabilities and the development of employment potential within small and medium-sized enterprises, the main change it will bring is the strengthening of cross-border cooperation between industry, government, universities and civil society by establishing two joint cross-border clusters, which will be coordinated by business support institutions in the area of ​​Sombor and Belišće.

During this project, two already mentioned clusters will be established, an innovative mobile and web solution will be presented, and a web tool will be developed for mapping renewable resources in agriculture in the cross-border region. Along with that, two buildings will be adapted and equipped for the needs of cross-border clusters. The main target group for this project are small and medium-sized enterprises and business support organizations, but also local public authorities, universities, interest groups and the public.

This project will facilitate and significantly improve the cooperation and trade flow between the two areas, enabling SMEs to establish partnerships with suppliers of complementary offers and internationalize their market range.

In order for the established clusters to be as successful as possible, the administrative capacities of all involved partners will be strengthened as part of the project - the project partners will visit some examples of good practice in countries where they have proven successful. In addition, educational and promotional activities will be organized, as well as activities related to the infrastructure that will support the development of the cluster.
