The EVaN research project aims to improve the ability of
European SMEs to compete internationally thanks to the development of
value-intensive products. The basic concept is to focus on local networks of
actors to preserve the concept of networks while providing them with the
additional capabilities to broaden the scope of their actions. In other words,
to transform these local networks into European Value Networks. More
specifically, the project aims to:
-
Understand the best practices related to the development of value-intensive
products of internationally successful European SMEs operating in the furniture
industry;
-
Design methods and tools that support the development of value-intensive
products. The aim is to create a set of tools and methods that aid the local
network of actors to become European Value Networks;
-
Test the methodology in selected pilot cases;
-
Support the EU in developing a vision and a framework for actions at the
European level based on the concept of value- intensive products and value-
intensive international competition.
