RCISD

The Regional Centre for Information and Scientific Development (RCISD) is an innovative SME, founded by scientists and R&D managers to carry out scientific research, for participating in coordinating & support actions. It is a kind of back office where the management R&D activities can be outsourced. Although RCISD is involved mainly in management and implementation of R&D projects including mapping, social and political analysis, etc., it is participating in the research activities too. The flexibility of the SME makes it possible being a major contributor to a research by employing R&D personnel for the duration of a project. Coordination and support (organisation of a workshop or a reception, etc.) is much easier in a small company then in large research entities like a university or a research centre. As a well established platform for regional and international cooperation RCISD is particularly interested in contributing to the development and integration of support strategies and decision making practices in strategic international cooperation projects too. The mission of RCISD is two-folded: - Extending competitiveness of enterprises, research entities and universities by inciting the partners’ innovative activity and network cooperation, especially in international projects. - Sharing up-to-date knowledge with university, research and enterprise professionals, also with enterprises, local governments, their institutions and non-governmental organizations through the adequate mediation of the accumulated knowledge. RCISD’s concrete tasks are the sharing of up-to-date knowledge and counselling for enterprises, local governments and non-governmental organizations in the above mentioned fields: - research & development - incubation consulting and services - project management - innovation marketing services - searching for investors and partners, mediation - project development - technological consulting - coordination of project teams
