Open CALL-Murcia 2021 INDEMAND-RCT

InDemand-RCT is a project funded by Innosup 6 call entitled “experimentation in innovation agencies”. Following such a call, indemand-RCT project entails performing a Random Control Trial (RCT) to check the efficacy of an innovation support model for SMEs (inDemand model, innovation driven by demand). This call consists of some 14 technological challenges related to business innovation, digitalisation and response to covid19 identified by large/tractor companies located in the Murcia region. Such challenges will be identified in an explanatory fiche-dossier available in the guidelines document. SMEs of any Member State of the EU or H2020 associated country are entitled to express interest and apply for providing digital solutions to those challenges. SMEs accepted for the experimentation after the selection process will be randomly inserted in one of the two working groups per challenge,

• Control group:
• Intervention group:

Indemand-RCT foresees to reach a sample size of a maximum of 40 SMEs in total for both groups.

Selected SMEs will be part of the experimentation and will search-find the most suitable digital solution to solve the challenge identified by the large/tractor company.
