2.2.1.5 Results and Impact of the Program Today 97 clusters are members of the program. They are represented by their cluster management organizations; through the clusters more than 450 Non-SME and more than 6,000 SME, more than 1,600 R&D institutions and universities and more than 1,000 service providers benefit from the program. The program has a number of positive effects that contribute to the achievement of the program objectives. An evaluation of the program arrived at the following conclusions: 36 • The quality of the cluster management organization’s work has improved and has contributed to an improved collaboration between the cluster members through exchange of information and guidance. • The reputation of individual members and of the cluster as a whole has improved which translated into a greater visibility and recognition among policy makers and potential partners. • Cooperation with other clusters and stakeholders both from Germany and abroad has increased. • Members of the cluster experienced a boost of their motivation and contribute more actively to the work of the cluster. 0 = coordination is weak ==> 4 = coordination is strong Figure 26: Coordination of Kompetenznetze Deutschland with other funding programs With R&D programs With business development programs 4 3 2 1 0 With infrastructure programs 2.2.1.6 Context of the program Although the program is an important cluster program of the Federal Government, its relevance in the overall policy context is, according to program officials, rather limited (see Table 21), which also reflects in its coordination with other funding programs (see Figure 26).

As a result of the support SME are expected to increase their near-to-market R&D activities and to commercialize R&D results in a shorter period of time. Furthermore, an increased collaboration between SME and research institutions is also expected as a result of the program. The program consists of three funding modules, including the support of collaborative projects of SME (ZIM-KOOP), the support of individual projects of SME (ZIM-SOLO) and the support of network projects (ZIM-NEMO). The latter funding module, ZIM-NEMO, will be presented by this chapter in more detail as it supports the development of clusters. The overall objective of ZIM-NEMO is to support the development of innovative networks that consist of at least six companies. In the context of this program networks are defined as contract-based collaboration between companies and institutions that support and complement each other in technology development activities. 2.2.2.2 Target Group of the Program Target group of the program are SME that collaborate with other SME or research institutions in a network project. 70
