Abstract

The Free State of Saxony will face substantial reductions of financial support from both the federal government and from the European Union for its operational programs. On behalf of the State Chancellery of Saxony, we develop strategies for the Saxon funding policies. Our results are based on a SWOT analysis and an estimation of future ESI funds. Resulting from this, the Saxon funding policy should focus on its economic strengths and opportunities. According to this, public expenditures in the field of education, research and innovation as well as investments in public infrastructure should be particularly important.
