Description
Public procurement accounts for about 14% of the European Union’s (EU) gross
domestic product - meaning it has enormous potential to guide new developments
in a range of sectors, help to stimulate future markets and address key societal
challenges. And public authorities who support the process of innovation or
purchase innovative goods and services are often directly rewarded with improved
services at optimised costs.
Procure2Innovate aims to improve institutional support for public procurers
implementing innovation procurement in a range of sectors. It will do this by both
establishing new innovation procurement competence centres, and enlarging the
scope of support offered by existing competence centres in 10 European countries.
