The Southern Regional Assembly is working with European partners, on a recently commenced new European interregional project “TALENT4S3- Retention and attraction of talent for a better deployment of Smart Specialisation Strategies” to share best practices between regions. This extensive collaboration includes partners from Spain, Italy, Romania, Slovenia, Finland, Lithuania, and the Netherlands.

The regions that perform best across Europe are those that take the time to identify and then invest in those unique strengths and opportunities that set them apart and help them to compete in global markets. This is reflected in Ireland’s National Smart Specialisation Strategy (S3) 2022-2027 which is focussed on place-based, sustainable, innovation-led growth in our regional enterprises, and has guided investment in the Southern Region under the ERDF Regional Programme. One of the critical enablers of smart specialisation strategies is the availability of a skilled and innovative workforce within a region and this requires a coherent policy approach at national, regional and local levels.
