"This cross-regional project was seen as an outstanding example of a sustainable project
that triggered collaboration and self-financing. The project was based on an analysis of the
needs of regional industry and has been able to bring this to the CICs. In addition no
subsidies were provided to companies or research groups – the funding covered the
incremental costs of providing professional business/university interface and promoting
their services"
