sustainable growth, whilst also addressing complementary environmental
concerns. The CIP will complement rather than duplicate the other relevant
actions, and those conducted by Member States.
CIP brings together several existing
EU activities that support competitiveness and innovation. As such it will be
more visible and comprehensible for the public. It will also ensure continuity
of programmes with a proven and successful track record. Many of the components
of CIP are familiar.

beneficiaries and answer to its own stakeholders. Each specific programme will
establish its annual work programmes, which in turn will be submitted to a
specific management committee composed of CIP participating countries??
authorities.
