Europe INNOVA awards TCI member Christoph Beer as best Cluster Manager 2008. Christoph Beer is the manager of tcbe.ch-ICT Cluster Bern (Switzerland) and an active member of TCI since 2005.

He energised the existing members and activated new cluster members through workshops, matchmaking events, and cross-clustering activities. He introduced a new management approach by establishing four task forces “Business Networking”, “Quality”, “Innovation” and “Communication”. The aim of the “Cluster Manager” award is to encourage the further development of good cluster management practice and prepare the ground for the recognition of cluster management as a new profession.

The “Cluster Manager”, the “Best Innovation Tool”, and the “Best Network” 2008 awards were presented during the Europe INNOVA Conference in a festive ceremony at Lyon’s City Hall. The Europe INNOVA Awards recognise the entrepreneurial and professional skills involved in successfully managing innovation. More info about the Europe INNOVA Awards 2008
