235. KARIM Assessment Matrix

This is a RRI self-assessment tool set up in the framework of KARIM project. The Karim assessment Matrix helps entrepreneurs and innovators to gain insight into where they are concerning the social, environmental, and economic impact of their companies and how they have organised their processes. Applying it to the research and innovation process(es) of an enterprise, it will allow to know the strengths. Moreover, the areas in which it can make progress are pointed out. This will help innovators to decide the area of improvement. The Matrix foresees four steps: selection of relevant topics; description of the situation; possible improvements; identification of possible obstacles; needed resources. Filling the matrix requires around 4 hours.

Part of interest: The entire tool.

Target groups: RPOs, Innovation Business, Start-ups
