NARRATE-HOP-ON

NARRATE-HOP-ON broadens the scope of market disruption signal analysis in NARRATE project, and incorporates strategic advisory components for market positioning, encompassing assessment of systemic risks associated with import reliance on geopolitically competitive economies. NARRATE-HOP-ON introduces detailed mapping of global supply and demand at the detailed product group level, guiding firms towards markets with the most potential for boosting sales, exports, and market share. Incorporating these additional perspectives helps to identify additional supply chain vulnerabilities, demand disruptions and opportunities, boosting resilience and efficiency of the EU manufacturing industries. Three new demonstrators are developed: (1) Smart advisor for alleviation of critical import dependencies, (2) Smart advisor for the identification of export opportunities and (3) The predictive market analysis and early warning tool as an enhancement of the tool under development in NARRATE. The first two are additional tools integrated into the NARRATE eco-system. The integration of the additional partner enriches the original NARRATE project’s methodology by deepening the understanding of market structures, trade relationships, geopolitical risks, and economic dependencies. By incorporating these advanced capabilities, this approach not only improves operational efficiency but also strengthens the strategic positioning of European manufacturers in the global market, ultimately contributing to the increased economic growth and resilience. The new partner will also broaden the project's reach, particularly within Estonia, the Baltics and Nordics. Additional participatory activities and policy engagements are foreseen. At the same time, the new partner will benefit from the expertise of the leading partners behind the NARRATE project.
