The I.S.C.I. project “Innovative Services to Strengthen Cooperation and Internationalisation
between SMEs in the field of agro-food industry (Greece-Italy)” targets the
Axis 1 of the European territorial cooperation INTERREG program Greece-Italy 2007-2013:
“Strengthening competitiveness and innovation”. The project was born with the aim of strengthen
the presence of the local agro-food SMEs (in Apulia Region, Italy, and in Corfu, Greece) on
the foreign markets, enhancing innovation processes and coordinated cooperation in order to
foster the internationalisation processes of the agro food industry. The ISCI project objective and
purpose is the definition of a model aiming at the constitution of technological incubators that
will network to deliver innovative services for the internationalisation of the agro-food SMEs
system. In progress within the ISCI project, the paper aims to determine different patterns of
internationalisation that characterise the local field of agro-food industry, in particular those that
seem to be predominant within the most strategic sectors of the local agro-food industry.
