Paper Abstract:
|
The virtual integrated framework aiming at supporting the regional development strategy represents a regional knowledge
management platform for the acquisition of relevant information (regional, national, and international level), their
processing and dissemination. Thus the virtual platform represents a vital and necessary resource in the process of the
design and implementation of the regional development strategy, facilitating the interaction of the main regional actors
and the consensus building. It refers also to the procedures and tools of analysis, in order to develop a specific set of
indicators and benchmarking analysis for the identification of major trends and needs in the regional development. The
regional knowledge platform aims also at integrating both data and specific views and experience of relevant regional
actors, for the best results in designing the regional strategy and supervising its implementation in the benefit of the
regional development and competitiveness. This approach aims at strengthening the regional partnership and the
interaction between citizens, public authorities, academic, research and business environment, in a democratic-centric
view. The regional knowledge management platform integrates multiple dimensions of knowledge management, such as:
techno-centric view, people view, organizational view, and process view. The technical view focuses on technologies,
ideally those that enhance knowledge sharing, and people interaction. The people view focuses on bringing people
together and helping them to exchange knowledge. The organisational view focuses on process re-engineering for the
main actors involved in the design of the regional development strategy. The process view focuses on the management of
the knowledge creation, processing and transmission. This approach intends to bring together valuable and updated data,
procedures for data acquisition and updating, econometric tools, benchmarking standards and the people best practices,
experience and creativity, as a life-event regional repository, used as a tool of knowledge creation in the regional strategy
frame. The development of the virtual platform ensures the possibility of a wider debate on a scientific and realistic base,
offered by a set of detailed and relevant indicators and various analysis and scenarios, as embedded knowledge. The new
web technologies offer support for the efficient communication among main actors, reduce the cost and increase the
participation rate of the citizens and experts in the democratic process of the design of the regional development strategy.
It offers also the possibility of an iterative process for the refinement of the regional objectives and priorities. The
interactive regional platform facilitates the management of the regional intelligence capital and best practices, in the
benefit of the region. It creates also the premises for a better supervision of the implementation of the regional strategy,
and supports the process of finding the best solutions for fulfilling the established goals |
