| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| The knowledge – innovation nexus | Emphasis will be placed on promising cutting edge research (biomedical, nanotech, computing, materials), which can support the expansion of the productive tissue towards new competitive knowledge-intensive activities, the launching of start-ups springing from this high quality RTD, the attraction of relevant investment, and of researchers, from around the world, promoting brain circulation, and building human capital, focusing on the interaction of local research prowess coupled with local advantages (e.g. strong laser RTD coupled with cultural heritage exploration and exploitation). |
| The environment-sustainability nexus | Emphasis is placed on energy efficiency and renewables to reduce carbon footprint, rationalisation of use of depletable/sensitive resources (e.g. water resources), dealing with climate change, protecting biodiversity, recycling and integrated waste management, green technologies. |

| The agriculture-nutrition nexus | The emphasis is on coupling agrifood to relevant RTDI, towards producing high value-added attractive products, both in traditionally strong produce categories, as well as in new, emerging categories, such highly nutritional seafood products, and exploring links with local brand gastronomy, gastro-tourism, health/quality-of-life aspects of the Cretan brand (Cretan diet). |
