Identifying the Key Stakeholders
Effective stakeholder engagement is essential for innovative projects like PREMIERE. To design its Stakeholder Engagement Strategy, it is crucial to know who the stakeholders are. PREMIERE uses the Quadruple Helix Model, which identifies four key stakeholder groups: Government/Policy stakeholders shape regulations and funding to support innovation; Science/Academia stakeholders provide research, knowledge, and evidence-based expertise; Industry/Business stakeholders develop products, services, and technologies for economic growth; and Society/Community stakeholders, including NGOs and local groups, contribute social perspectives, networks, and practical insights. By engaging with all four sectors, PREMIERE ensures a balanced, inclusive approach to collaboration, knowledge exchange, and co-creation. This framework guides the identification, mapping, and active participation of stakeholders throughout the project, helping align activities with real-world needs and increasing the relevance and impact of project outcomes. The Quadruple Helix Model offers a simple, adaptable approach that any Horizon Europe project can use to engage diverse actors, foster collaboration, and ensure that innovations are practical, socially relevant, and widely supported.
