RIS3KEY Questions Answered
• Existing or potential world-class competencies:– Only secondary assessments by OECD – two MASA
research groups.• Specific scientific strengths and research specializations:
– Energy/Environment, ICT and Materials.• Emerging scientific competences:
– Environmental Sciences & Ecology, Education & Educational Research, Genetics & Heredity, Business & Economics.
• Leading Institutions:– Ss Cyril and Methodius Univ in Skopje: Leader in
publications in all disciplines, leader in EU funded research projects.
– Macedonian Academy of Sciences and Arts

RIS3KEY Questions Answered
• Contribution of leading institutions in innovation policy development:– Evidence of a participatory process at the consultation level in
the development of the new Innovation Strategy 2012-20 and the National Strategy for Scientific R&D Activities up to 2020
• Alignment with EU R&D Priorities– National research strategy is aligned to Horizon2020; overall
strategic orientation is consistent with a vision for improving integration into ERA.
• Research Infrastructures / Creativity Hotspots– Decaying national research infrastructures due to declining
funding– Some pilot intermediary organisations established by donors’
funds did not manage to survive by themselves.

RIS3KEY Questions Answered
• Fitness to address global societal challenges:– Limited in terms of critical mass and linkages to world-
class research institutions; Skopje has potentials for interdisciplinary research-most of the country’s research potential is situated there.
• Attractiveness to researchers / working conditions:– Very limited, mainly due to remuneration and recognition
of degrees earned abroad. No vacancies in the enterprise sector.
• Fit of curricula to the needs of the regional economy:– ‘The formal education system struggles for market
relevance’ (USAID)– Graduates lack soft skills (work ethics, communication)
