Getting innovation and new ideas into the company

The Interreg6A project aims to increase the economic growth and competitiveness of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) – and the program region itself – through greater innovative strength.

The focus is on topics such as digitalization, automation and sustainability. SMEs in the German-Danish border region face a variety of challenges in these areas.

Procedure

  • In practical terms, the first step is to determine a company’s requirements.
  • The best match: student teams from a broad German-Danish pool then provide the company with tailor-made support for innovation processes and work together to develop ideas and solutions for products, services, processes or business models, for example.
  • Creative and innovative solutions are thus developed free of charge for companies: ARTEMIS makes the latest findings from universities usable for the economy!

In addition, the project is creating a permanent cross-border network of stakeholders to provide optimum support for innovation in the companies and to improve the intercultural climate. Partners from both sides of the border are involved in each initiative.

Our project partners are SDU Sønderborg (lead), Flensburg University of Applied Sciences, Europa-Universität Flensburg, Wirtschaftsförderung Rendsburg-Eckernförde, Sønderborg Vækstråd, Business Aabenraa and Mind Factory by Ecco.

Current information on activities and project initiatives can be found on LinkedIn and on the ARTEMIS website.
A practical example from one of the first pilot companies, the unpackaged store “AbfüllBar” in Rendsburg, can be found here.

ARTEMIS is funded by Interreg Deutschland-Danmark.

The Business DE-DK project aims to meet the cooperative challenges in the northern German and southern Danish border region.

The Business DE-DK project aims to help counteract the labor shortage in the border region, promote economic cooperation and create a more visible and attractive border region for current and future generations of employers and job seekers from all over the world.

We need to become much better at cooperating and coordinating between companies, institutions and initiatives in the border region in order to improve cross-border economic cooperation and thereby strengthen cross-border added value for the region’s economy and citizens.

The aim of Business DE-DK is

to collect data and create a better overview of the many opportunities, needs and measures in the border region. We would like to reach out to the organizations, initiatives, politicians, etc. in the region and investigate what measures are being taken to promote economic cooperation in the border region and what data and information is needed. These results and the information sought are communicated and made freely accessible to all via an ambitious media channel.

Within the framework of Business DE-DK, a cross-border economic network of business people, business consultants, professors and others interested in cross-border economic cooperation will be established. The network offers the opportunity to share knowledge, network and initiate cooperation and business.

The project is also investigating how a cross-border economic council could function. A council made up of influential business people from across the border region to discuss the economy of the border region, identify the biggest challenges and hopefully contribute to the solutions.

Business DE-DK is financed by Interreg Germany-Denmark, with funding from the European Regional Development Fund. Find out more about Interreg Germany-Denmark under this link.

GrønBusiness project (2023-2026)

The project GrønBusiness was implemented as part of the Interreg6A program from April 2023 to March 2026. The aim was to support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the German-Danish border region on their way to ecologically, socially and economically sustainable business development.

Goals and priorities

GrønBusiness was aimed in particular at smaller companies that do not have their own resources for comprehensive sustainability strategies. The focus was on the three central fields of action:

  • Ecology
  • Social affairs
  • Corporate governance

A particular focus was on the transition to a circular economy and the development of sustainable business models.

Measures and offers in the project

Over the course of the project, a wide range of support services were developed and implemented:

  • Information, workshop and networking events
  • Provision of practical tools for sustainable transformation
  • Development of customized information services for SMEs
  • Building up know-how within business development
  • Visualization of best practice examples from the region

The measures were designed jointly by German and Danish business development agencies and scientifically supported by university partners.

The aim of the funding was to raise companies’ awareness of sustainable business practices in the long term and to provide concrete impetus for implementation.

The project was funded by Interreg Germany-Danmark and co-financed by the European Union.

 

Sustainable impact: The GrønBusiness info portal

Even after the project has been completed, the content and knowledge developed will be retained:
With the GrønBusiness info portal will continue to provide a central platform that supports companies and business development organizations in their sustainable transformation.
