At INSHAPE, we don’t just talk about innovation support—we build it, test it, and deliver it with real-world impact. That’s why we believe it’s important to make the “doing-side” of our work visible. Behind every supported SME, every co-developed solution, and every breakthrough, there’s a structured process and a committed network of experts, tools, and steps.
This visualisation shows how our Innovation Support Programme works in practice—who does what, when, and how.
Connect with flagships and co-developers based on innovation and investment potential
Identify and validate key needs and gaps
Design and implement the service delivery process
Allocate resources and operational tools
Data-driven, user centered innovation development exploiting
Test the waters:
Support SME expansion and investment readiness
In the innovation cycle model, innovations are developed, validated, and accelerated in response to market demand to quickly and effectively introduce a service or product to the market.
This model will be applied when, at the end of the I3-INSHAPE project, a network of self-sustainable interregional innovation Hubs for European SMEs in the field of Sports & Vitality will be created, paving the way for a positive impact on society’s health and well–being.
