Colombia + Competitiva - Renforcer la compétitivité du secteur privé (angl.)

The Colombia + Competitiva Programme supports Colombia in its systematic efforts to improve the competitiveness of its private sector within the National System of Competitiveness, Science, Technology and Innovation System and the Productive Development Policy. Its second phase additionally focuses on fostering green and inclusive growth through an enabling business environment and effective public sector policies. It also aims to promote competitiveness and innovation by supporting sustainable value chains in speciality cocoa, speciality coffee, natural ingredients and nature-based tourism, which provide employment and income opportunities. The programme follows a systemic approach with clear ownership by national and sub-national entities and with a significant contribution to aligning their orientation towards common objectives.

Le projet

Intervention areas

Phase I (2017-2020):

  • Reform Advisory: 13 projects were supported in 5 strategic areas: innovation, regional competitiveness, public policy analysis, government efficiency and business development and entrepreneurship, seeking to support the entities of the National Competitiveness and Innovation System in identifying the competitiveness issues in the country.
  • Sustainable value chains: The programme developed a mechanism to boost regional competitiveness by supporting four value chains; this mechanism operated in alliance with iNNpulsa Colombia, through the development of calls for proposals for the co-financing of the best innovative initiatives presented. As a result, a portfolio of 17 projects was co-financed and executed.
  • Improved Policy Dialogue: 5 projects were developed in support of the selected value chains, seeking to resolve cross-cutting bottlenecks and promote coordination between the national level and the regions.

Phase II (2021-2024):

  • Policy reforms: The programme supports the implementation of public policies to improve competitiveness, considering a sub-national approach.
  • Sustainable value chains: The programme continues to support the development of the value chains of speciality cocoa, sustainable tourism and sustainable construction, adding greater scope to the natural ingredients chain and incorporating the speciality coffee chain.
