RIS3
The RIS3 strategy can simply be explained as a strategic approach to the economic development of the region in the field of research and innovation. It is a process of identifying the opportunities and strengths of a region that can benefit from specialization in a particular field of science or technology. For the Pardubice Region, the following so-called progressive sectors are defined within RIS3:
- Chemistry for industrial and bio-medical applications
- Advanced applications of electrical engineering and computer science
- Sustainable transport, production of means of transport and their components, transport infrastructure
- Advanced materials based on textile structures

Methodology of inclusion of projects in the Action Plan of the Pardubice Region
The action plan for the RIS3 strategy of the Pardubice region represents the implementation part of the Regional research and innovation strategy of intelligent specialization of the Pardubice region (hereinafter RIS3 Pk). The action plan consists of a set of project plans, interventions and measures planned to implement Pardubice and other entities active in the regional innovation ecosystem. A common feature of the project plans included in the Action Plan is their link to the identified key areas of change in RIS3 Pk and their strategic goals, as well as to the domains of specialization of the region. With this strategy, another criterion for inclusion in the Action Plan is the potentially significant impact of the project on the quality of the innovation environment of the Pardubice Region.
Individual project intentions are developed in the form of a so-called project fiche containing a brief description of the intent of the project, its objectives, expected results, outputs and planned activities. At the same time, the basic assumption of the time and financial framework of projects is given here. Financing of project preparation and implementation is planned from public (national or European) and private sources. As for the time frame, especially projects of research organizations are often planned beyond the horizon of 2022, as these are projects of a medium or long-term nature. The projects contained in the RIS3 Pk Action Plan are intended to ensure the implementation of RIS3, to put the intentions of this strategy into practice and to fulfill the objectives set in the strategy.
Submission of projects to the Action Plan takes place in the form of filling in project fiches from research organizations in the region and other selected entities (private companies, municipalities, etc.). The selection of project plans for the Action Plan is determined using the evaluation criteria listed in the table. A project is included in the Plan if it meets at least 70 % of all criteria. (Does not fill = 0 points; Partially fills = 0.5 points; Fills = 1 point). The evaluation takes place within the RIS3 team, then is consulted within the innovation platforms and is subsequently submitted to the Regional Innovation Council of the Pardubice Region (KRPI Pk).
