Weak research orientation on contributing Sample Clauses

Weak research orientation on contributing to society The research system in the Czech Republic is fairly fragmented in terms of financial and personnel capacities. Research teams do not reach the critical sizes or are not sufficiently inter-disciplinary to implement ambitious research topics responding to long-term society needs. The problem also lies in the insufficient communication and multi-lateral cooperation of the public, academic and business sector when generating and addressing extensive research topics which reflect long-term economic and society needs of the Czech Republic or regions. Development needs:  To reinforce the partnership of private and public sector at national and regional levels in order to generate topics and implement interdisciplinary research focused on dealing with socio-economic needs including ground-breaking and key enabling technologies.  To strengthen innovation policy at regional level on the basis of implementation of the RIS3. These will be implemented, among other things, on the basis of the cluster concept and cluster policies in connection with the regional economy structure and the planned international and inter-regional cooperation.45
