‘FORSEE - Regional ICT Foresight exercise for Southeast European countries’
The ‘FORSEE – Regional ICT Foresight exercise for Southeast European countries’ project targets ICT Research, Development and Innovation (RDI) policy reform in the South-eastern Europe (SEE) region, proposing a focused effort on introducing a Foresight culture in the region, which is necessary to accelerate socio-economic growth in participating countries striving to meet the challenges of the global networked economy and to participate on equal footing in the European Research Area. The FORSEE initiative aims to introduce a sustainable mechanism for ICT RDI Foresight in the region, attempting to tackle the absence of a regular process applied for technological future orientation and research policy review.
FORSEE's main objective is to identify the shortcomings of the ICT RDI sector in the region and orchestrate the establishment of a regional collaboration network, working on ICT Foresight and exploring synergies and complementarities between research resources in the target countries. The project's efforts are going to address regional stakeholders in the sector and will provide a participatory platform for collaboration in order to ensure that the outputs will receive wide acceptance and will inspire the necessary sense of regional ownership. One of the most important elements of the project is the hands-on approach in the implementation of pilot ICT Foresight exercises in all participating countries1 based on a Regional methodology adapted to the region's capacities and resources.
