The Regional Cooperation Council presented a new platform in May 2022.

The key goals of the Western Balkans Innovation and Research Platform are to:

• exchange innovation-related information about ongoing and planned activities in the region,
• avoid major overlaps between initiatives and duplication of donor efforts,
• identify complementarities and join forces where possible,
• coordinate activities among stakeholders (policy-makers, practitioners, businesses, research organisations, higher-education institutions, international organisations, international financial institutions, civil society organisations etc.).

The website’s mission is to syndicate key innovation & research-related information from various sources and make it available to the wider public including research organisations and individual scholars, businesses and business organisations, practitioners and policy-makers from the region and beyond.

The Platform has been created by the Regional Cooperation Council (RCC), an all-inclusive, regionally owned and led cooperation framework. This framework engages RCC participants from the South-East Europe (SEE), members of the international community and donors on subjects that are important and of interest to the SEE, with a view to promoting and advancing the European and Euro-Atlantic integration of the region.
