RegioClusterAgency for Innovation and Transformation in Baden-Württemberg

  • Clusterinitiatives

    Cluster initiatives promote networking between companies, research institutions and other stakeholders in order to drive innovation and regional development. We support them by raising their profile, promoting exchange, and providing individual advice and process support.

  • Economic Development

    Economic development agencies make a key contribution to regional development and innovation in Baden-Württemberg – especially when it comes to managing transformation processes. We support economic development agencies in this transition with a comprehensive portfolio of services. 

  • Further Intermediaries

    Innovation intermediaries act as intermediaries between business and science. They support innovation processes, promote cooperation, and facilitate access to knowledge and technologies. We support these processes with numerous measures and strengthen the exchange between relevant actors.

  • Lead Organisations

    Lead organisations pool their strengths in Baden-Württemberg's regional innovation landscape. They are the result of regional consensus and originate from the ranks of regional stakeholders who have comprehensive responsibility and authority for the development of the functional area. We support lead organisations in this and strengthen their role as key drivers of change.

Who we are...

The RegioClusterAgency for Innovation and Transformation in Baden-Württemberg (RCA BW) supports transformative change in Baden-Württemberg with technical expertise and regional know-how. On behalf of the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labour and Tourism, it supports the implementation of the state's economic and cluster policy strategies through consulting, networking and analysis.
