Round table InnovaMare BTS 2020. - key messages:

“Cooperation between science, government institutions and companies is key to the development of a good innovation ecosystem. We now have excellent conditions and incentives to develop such a system as part of this InnovaMare project and I am convinced that this will lead to concrete results," Yovanof said. Mr. Caccia agreed that the implementation of the InnovaMare project is a chance to take concrete steps together because the technology is evolving rapidly and gives us opportunities to work cheaper and more modular robots that can help preserve the ecosystem. He point out that "Croatia and Italy are ready for that shift".

“Mišković emphasized that we must determine our strengths and advantages of the national and European level and then focus on their development. "In Croatia, we must encourage the economy to use and apply scientific research in practice, in which we need to invest as much as possible. Software, hardware and sensors are becoming more advanced and with interdisciplinary cooperation, they will develop even faster. This cooperation is a model from the academic community to the market itself, where innovations are commercialized". Triple helix model is the right way to connect all of us!

Palunko said that the technology is already available, but it is expensive, so cooperation with the economy is needed in order to develop systems that will be commercially viable for implementation. Stakeholders join us and take your place in this value chain!

Madricardo emphasized that InnovaMare provides opportunities to use sophisticated technology to reduce costs and improve the results of marine ecosystem research.
