          • A better comprehension of the impact of research on more than one field, social and economic,
        
        
          is a prerequisite for the best, most effective and profitable research. Taking into account the
        
        
          exceptionally difficult economic conditions which our country is experiencing and the associated
        
        
          cultural consequences, research and innovation need to target those specific socio-economic
        
        
          conditions and not just follow general European and international strategies. It is for this
        
        
          reason that research impact as well as its measurement and its dissemination in the research
        
        
          community are basic for research which can lead to balanced and inclusive development.
        
        
          • Research, Technology, Development and Innovation impact indicators, which we produce, are
        
        
          critical to creating a real idea of the impact that Greek research has in international value chains.
        
        
          Our priorities for 2014-2015 are:
        
        
          • The clarification of the repercussions for the Greek environment
        
        
          • The production of statistics and indicators for organisations which carry out research in order to
        
        
          understand the impact of their work
        
        
          • The fostering of public discussion of impact-oriented research

          the establishment
        
        
          and functioning of online collaboration
        
        
          • The creation of online collaborations with organisations which find themselves included at
        
        
          different points of value chains strengthens the stable loose coupling and allows the orderly
        
        
          development of co operations.
        
        
          • We have made more than 100 such agreements which function within the framework of the
        
        
          services we provide, creating an extensive network of partnerships which reinforce the value
        
        
          chains.
        
        
          Our priorities for 2014-2015 are:
        
        
          • To implement all the frameworks of collaboration which we have made with cultural research
        
        
          organisations
        
        
          • The creation of at least 10 new collaborative frameworks with regard to our SaaS services
        
        
          • The further development of a model for collaborative frameworks
