No. CZ.02.2.69 / 0.0 / 0.0 / 18_055 / 0016072, financed from the European Structural and Investment Funds and the Zlín Region. "

MLK wants to further develop its activities to connect individual European aviation cluster organizations and establish cooperation in the European Research Area, engage in cross-border networks of excellent clusters (with an emphasis on future challenges and key technologies), and coordinate access to third markets. The key activity of the project is networking with foreign clusters, lobbying in the interests of member companies, and support for the Czech aviation industry in Europe and worldwide. The intention is to innovate the corporate cultures of companies in the Zlín Region and thus improve the position and perception of companies on an international scale, which will increase their flexibility and number of qualified staff and increase the number of innovations in companies.

This is why we submitted a request for support in the project COOPERATION-CLUSTERS CALL VII-INTERNATIONALISATION with a project that follows up on the project INTERNATIONALISATION 2017-2019. 

We received financial aid of 147 000 CZK from the ASSISTANCE VOUCHERS OF THE ZLÍN REGION project to prepare this application and a feasibility study (which translated to 85% of the costs).

“Preparation of the strategic project ETNA is supported through providing a voucher assistance within the Zlín Region Smart Accelerator Project II, registration number CZ.02.2.69/0.0/0.0/18_055/0016072, financed from the European structural and investment funds and the Zlín region.” 

Moravian Aerospace Cluster is actively trying to support the competitiveness of its members through innovation in the manufacturing processes as well as introducing new methods of advanced manufacturing. This is why the project ETNA was submitted in 2020 with the international consortium. 

ETNA - increases the competitiveness of SMEs providing easy and pan-European access to advanced manufacturing. 

The ETNA project is going to increase the competitiveness of SMEs by creating a pan-European base focused on SMEs that would offer the required technological, economic, and educational help regarding the usage of advanced manufacturing technologies (AMT) in order to improve the products and processes of the SMEs that push their innovations forward. The project is going to connect important technological centers and universities that work on researching and introducing advanced manufacturing processes and the concept of Industry 4.0 with SMEs. This will happen thanks to clusters helping the SMEs with establishing the connections. The state of the companies will be analyzed and the option of coaching, training, and advice regarding the introduction of principles and innovations of AMT. It is therefore going to offer the opportunity of utilizing top European experts and information free of charge. 

The request was applied to the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme – For better innovation support to SMEs (H2020-INNOSUP-2018-2020). 

We received financial aid of 153 000 CZK from the ASSISTANCE VOUCHERS OF THE ZLÍN REGION project to prepare this application and a feasibility study (which translated to 85% of the costs).
