TALENT4S3
Retention and attraction of talent for a better deployment of Smart Specialisation Strategies

Improving policies to retain and attract talent to the regions in order to give citizens equal opportunities is of high importance. The Smart Specialisation Strategies is an effective framework to positively address the brain drain issue as they can focus on the competitive advantages existing in one territory.
One of the ways of retaining and attracting talent is through the development of innovative policies coming from the national and regional authorities by a participatory learning process that involves the main economic and social agents (universities, private sector, citizens and public administration) with the aim of jointly develop the right ecosystem where innovation and training/education can deliver quality jobs, the correct interrelation between supply and demand of professional profiles, and as a consequence, retain and attract talent.
