Abstract

This research aims to understand the relevant pre-conditions and barriers for territorial innovation behind the Research and Innovation Strategies for Smart Specialisation (RIS3) of a lagging European Union (EU) region. For that purpose, a Delphi was conducted to a panel of experts responsible for the design of the RIS3 of the Centro region of Portugal. Consensus was reached on the role of determinant factors for territorial innovation, but the operationalization and effectiveness of the RIS3 remained debatable. Policy recommendations focus on the need to increase the inclusiveness of different actors and knowledge in RIS3 and overcome some of its barriers.
