The National Association of European Business and Innovation Centers is a unifying model of interests, working methods and for the interconnection of innovation and entrepreneurship nodes. The 27 members, BICs or BICs, located in different regions have been promoted by virtue of the commitment of local public and / or private agents in a key resource in the strategy of promoting innovation in the respective territories. This network is integrated into the European Business and Innovation Center... Network - EBN network consisting of more than 150 certified BICs and 100 organizations that provide support for the growth and development of innovative entrepreneurs, start-ups and SMEs. ANCES promotes the creation of BIC in other environments for which it specifies its configuration based on different elements of the territory and the capacity of its promoters. In this way, the creation of a new BIC takes into account in a special way the existence of agents or networks of services to support entrepreneurship, the growth and competitiveness of SMEs and innovation, with the aim that these new infrastructures will truly respond to a need that is not covered and that completes and collaborates with the supply of existing services in the territory.More
