General Objectives 1. The guidelines for science policy, technology of the Government, approved by CIPE April 19, 2002 have placed which axis IV objective, the promotion of capacity 'of business innovation through the creation of systemic aggregations at territorial level; this' in order to foster greater competitiveness' of existing production areas with high intensity 'of export, revitalizing and re-launching through research and development of key technologies enabling product innovation, process and organization. 2. To this end, the guidelines identify, among the implementation instruments, the development of concerted actions to be translated into specific program agreements aimed at achieving synergies and complementarity in the programs' financial. 3. In this context, the Ministry of University 'and research - MUR attaches special priority' measures aimed at the realization of high-tech clusters through program agreements providing for the joint participation of regions, local authorities, innovative finance, world enterprises, scientific world. 4. The territory of Friuli Venezia-Giulia region has elements of major importance, such as: the existence in the region of the basic conditions of industrial and technical-scientific to achieve a technological district of success in molecular biomedicine; the existence of strengths in the Universities ', in research centers (private and public), in the numerous production companies and high qualification services and great tradition that has already' demonstrated the ability to generate innovations targeted and specific and knowing how to feed even a process on the local entrepreneurial system; the presence of strictly classified companies, or related to the sector of molecular biomedicine with high quality characteristics; the presence of a large complex of organisms and skills in the technical-scientific system, both inside and outside of enterprises, specialized laboratories of public research institutions and private entities. 5. In this context, the MUR and the region Friuli-Venezia Giulia have agreed on the need 'to adopt a common strategy to carry out, in the scientific and technological fields aforementioned, interventions and actions aimed at supporting activities' research, the increase degree of innovation in enterprises, the development of human resources and initiatives that promote the link to the business and technology centers associated with universities' and research centers. 6. In order to pursue these objectives, the MUR and the region Friuli-Venezia Giulia have agreed, among other things: a) to allocate an amount of EUR 7 million to support specific projects that ricomprendano activities' of industrial research, pre-competitive development and advanced training of qualified personnel, selected and funded under the provisions of art. 12 of the Ministerial Decree n. 593 8 August 2000, as subsequently amended, (implementation of the provisions of Legislative Decree no. 297 of 27 July 1999, as well as' b) to allocate € 3 million to support research projects, in the same topics, aimed the creation of new high-tech companies, selected and funded in accordance with art. 11 of the aforementioned decree no. 593/2000. 7. Through these projects, we intend to promote the activities 'aimed at acquiring new knowledge aimed at the development of new products, processes, services, or the improvement of existing ones, that' in order to contribute to the strengthening of the sector molecular biomedicine and the promotion and socio-economic development of the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region. 8. Projects must, altresi ', to contribute to the promotion of network technology platforms for industrial research in the productive sectors of biomedicine Molecular in Friuli Venezia-Giulia. These technology platforms are intended to raise the technological level of the productive sectors involved and the ability 'to development activities' of industrial research. 9. The projects, where required, should also encompass activities 'of qualified research staff training, with the goal of adequate theoretical and professional training activities through a' training concerning both operational experiences in scientific, technological, industrial, is the deepening of specialist knowledge in the disciplines inherent in the activities' of research.
