Status: Wake-up call needed for ICT for smart growth—better for less
Wake-up call – need to use ICT for smart growth (better for less) leveraging local strengths (smart specialization). Need to better use current resources (structural funds) and improve institutional cooperation (local-national-.EC).

In times of Austerity, it’s harder to justify spending money on ICTs—its not “all about growth” for the moment— in many regions its about survival. The technologists and the Commission and even the Member States need to decend from their Ivory Towers and look at real problems on the ground.
