ACCELERATOR held its 2nd working group meeting on 22-23 June, 2017 in Graz, Austria hosted by FH Joanneum, the Austrian partner in the ACCELERATOR partnership. The main topic to discuss was the regional assessments project partners make on acceleration. Partners are expected to deliver two regional assessments, one on the policy framework of accelerators and related equity funding programmes in their region, the other on the demand and supply side of acceleration activities. Furthermore, partners presented functioning acceleration programmes from and beyond the partnership to provide input for the “Joint guide to develop acceleration programmes”. The Steirische Wirtschaftsförderungsgesellschaft mbH (SFG), the Austrian associated strategic partner to the project participated actively on the event, as well.  ACCELERATOR is an approved project under the 1st call of the INTERREG Danube Transnational Programme. The project is implemented by 10 partners from 8 countries from January until 2019. We at Liontaria provide the partnership level project management of ACCELERATOR for the smooth implementation of the project.
