1 EU initiatives supporting universities Luis Delgado European Commission DG RTD. Dir C. ERA: Knowledge-based Economy C4 Universities and Researchers 27 th Conference of Rectors and Presidents of European Universities of Technology European and International Cooperation between Universities of Technology Kaunas University of Technology, September 2008

2 Structure The ERA Partnership The role of universities in the ERA Funding opportunities for RTD&I FP7 CIP Structural Funds DG RTD activities on research/technological universities

3 Our global position in numbers GERD (%GDP) BERD (%) N Researchers (% labour force) Share private sector (%) EU US Japan China R&D intensity (%GDP) Japan US EU-27 China Russia Slow progress and too much fragmentation between the national and community programmes and policies

4 What is the ERA? A political concept to overcome undesirable fragmentation of Europe's R&I efforts to achieve efficiency, effectiveness, attractiveness, openness to organise co-operation at different levels for co-ordinated, more coherent national or European policies A physical space where S&T capacities/ resources of Member & Associated States are put to best use that is open to the world where people, ideas and knowledge can circulate freely (5 th freedom) Who & what it involves all European research stakeholders; Public & Private investment & PPPs national/ regional strategies & actions; The Framework Programme & other Community measures; OMC / partnerships

5 Ljubljana Process We need to develop a well-organised partnership between the Member States, Associated States and the Commission to exchange information and to steer all initiatives in a coherent way. First step is to agree on a common long-term vision for the future of ERA as the basis for our future actions and initiatives; and In addition, better governance, notably with better political steering at the ministerial level, is needed. 24/10/ ERA vision & Ljubljana process

6 ERA vision Development of new ERA vision by end 2008 Based on key building blocks Seamless mobility and attractive careers for researchers Fully exploited knowledge and intellectual property Coherent and efficient research programmes and priorities Joint (access to) world-class research infrastructures Coherent international S&T cooperation strategies Knowledge triangle: strong universities, research institutions and innovative business With a global dimension and integrated approach Links and synergies between different building blocks Partnership between Member States, Associated States and Commission 24/10/ ERA vision & Ljubljana process

7 ERA vision Expected level of EU action Realising a single labour market for researchers Opening to the world: international cooperation in S&T Developing world-class research infrastructures Strengthening research institutions Optimising research programmes and priorities Sharing knowledge European National Regional No opinion

9 Role of Universities in the ERA Policy background: COM (2006) Delivering on the Modernisation Agenda for Universities: Education, Research and Innovation, Council Resolution (2007) Modernising universities for Europe s competitiveness in a global economy and the ERA Green Paper: Universities key stakeholders in the process towards a knowledge based economy interface between the EHEA and the ERA at the hearth of the knowledge triangle, key role in the need to achieve a sufficient supply of competent researchers & make the ERA/EHEA more attractive to the world But, some challenges are still ahead

10 Modernisation agenda Breakdown the barriers. Geographical and intersectoral mobility Provide the right mix of skills and competences for the labour market. Employability Ensure real autonomy and accountability for universities Reduce the funding gap and make funding work more effectively in education and research % of GDP Total Investment in Higher Education 3 2,5 2 1,5 1 0,5 0 EU 1,1 Australia 1,5 Canada 2,5 US 2,7 2,7 Korea

11 Modernisation agenda Structured partnerships with the business community, other RTOs and local authorities Activate Knowledge through interaction with society Reward excellence at the highest level Enhance Inter- and Transdisciplinarity in the research and training agendas

12 Globalization of R&D Excellent research at a global scale will rather be concentrated in a few regions/ universities of Europe that spread to every one Smart specialisation of regions/universities to foster innovation. Diversity and differentiation of missions. Not all universities with the same education-research-innovation mix, thematic specialisation, international national regional focus. Regional Education R&D Nacional Innovation Global

13 Standard model Lab R&D > Discovery/Invention > Disclosure > Patenting > Licensing > Spin-offs OK, but the linear innovation model is not working the economic impact of university spin-offs, though increasing, is still only 2-3% of the total number of business starts in the US the number of US University patents (~ 3700/año) is 2.5 % of the total US patents. University entrepreneurship

14 Universities & Innovation Provide national and regional links into the global knowledge economy Exchange knowledge, gather intelligence Facilitate international flows of higly skilled people Attract high value-added business Actors in regional networks, help lead the design and delivery of economic development strategies Exchanging knowledge Ways universities drive innovation Moving forward the research frontier Linkages with busines, Government and the Public sector Hub in an international network of knowledge Giving people the new skills for innovation Regional leadership
