1 Paris, 08 Novembre 2012 Colloque "Technologies clés génériques : saisir les nouvelles opportunités européennes pour la recherche et l innovation" Participer aux futurs projets KET et multi-ket d Horizon 2020 Thomas Skordas Head of the Photonics Unit, DG CONNENT European Commission Thomas.Skordas@ec.europa.eu

2 Towards a European (Industrial) Strategy in KETs Regional Cohesion Policy Research & Innovation KETs Venture Capital & project bonds State Aids International Trade Education & Skills Public Procurement

3 KETs Implementation in Horizon 2020 Joint Undertakings ENIAC JTI Contractual PPPs Factories of the Future, Energyefficient buildings, Photonics, Process Industries Support for: Individual KETs: technology-specific and multidisciplinary research An integrated, multi-kets approach Activities: Technological Research Process & Product Demonstration Competitive Manufacturing

4 Individual KETs A large set of R&I Measures & Instruments SME instrument STREPs, IPs PPPs (JTIs, Pilots & Demos Contractual PPPs) ERANET+ PCP/PPI Networking Instruments Prizes Disruptive and Roadmap based R&D Pilot manufacturing lines; Large scale demonstration activities Innovative SMEs: light touch open schemes; access to technology and support services Innovation Support Actions: Inducement prizes; Pre-commercial procurement actions & public procurement initiatives; Support to collaboration among and with innovation clusters Coordination with national programmes (e.g. through ERANET+) Coordination and support actions: Education, training and skills development; Standardization; International Cooperation; Outreach,

5 A joint WP for Multi-KETs Aim: cross-fertilisation of different KETs for the development of new technologies, innovative products and services or new manufacturing processes requiring multi-ket integration capabilities enhance product competitiveness and impact A joint work programme for cross-cutting (Multi-)KETs activities providing generic KETs building blocks for different application areas, including societal challenges WHAT: bring together different KETs for developing new technologies, innovative processes and products, as well as for contributing to solving societal challenges HOW: Pillar 1 (RTD) and Pillar 2 (Pilots) actions? Larger-scale pilot lines and demonstrator projects technology validation in an industrial environment to a complete & qualified system; providing innovative solutions to societal challenges We are still in the beginning of the multi-ket WP definition! WHO: Strong private sector involvement; Inter-disciplinary KET teams; Cooperation with Societal Challenges (EIPs; ETPs, etc.), EIT KICs, Structural Funds, etc.

6 A joint WP for Multi-KETs An example (1) Silicon Photonics at the cross-roads between micro-electronics, photonics and advanced manufacturing Europe has key assets: Excellent R&D environment to support the building of a silicon photonics industry Key industrial players along the whole value chain CMOS foundries committed in More than Moore R&I Action, including pilot line(s)? Courtesy L. Fulbert, CEA-Leti

7 A joint WP for Multi-KETs An example (2) Advanced Materials for Photonics and Electronics Components at the cross-roads between advanced materials, micro-electronics, nanotechnology, photonics and advanced manufacturing (Flexible / Organic) Electronics: Materials with improved electrical performance, processability and stability for developing highly performing components and flexible electronic devices Efficient lasers and devices: Semiconductor or other material lasers for higher efficiency or for currently inaccessible wavelengths Lighting: Materials for OLED lighting with high efficacy, uniformity over large areas, high brightness Alternatives to the use of critical raw-materials for white high quality LED (e.g. substituting rare earths) Materials for multi-band photonic sensing devices (e.g. alternatives to today s bismuth tellurides) and precise design and fabrication techniques (hundreds of nanometre-thin layer structures) for MIR lasers and detectors Courtesy Merck Holst Centre / IMEC Europe has key assets: Key industrial players along materials and components R&I Action? Polytec GmbH

8 Some Open Questions [Except for JTIs] Same financial rules as in rest of H2020 limited overheads PPPs - Long term commitment from private side Which forms of commitment? How to monitor commitment and performance? Huge investments which additional forms of support (financial engineering)? Links to Structural Funds / regional dimension? Links to the European Investment Bank and other sources of financing? How far do we go to TRL? Up to 7 or 8? ( EP proposes support to focus on "the pre-commercial and pre-competitive stage") Should we finance particular industrial pilot production lines? Where is the EU added value? What about "open access" to manufacturing capabilities? Who should be the "partners"? What role for SMEs? What should be the selection criteria? For multi-kets: Only Pillar 2 or Pillar 1 (R&D) too? Links and coordination with societal challenges (TBD)

9 Cohesion Policy : Linking R&I to "Smart Specialisation" Ex-ante Conditionality For R&I: existence of a national or regional R&I strategy for smart specialisation (RIS3): Designed to assist EU regions and EU Member States in developing RIS3 strategies Smart Specialisation Strengthening R&I centres of competence, business R&I investment, technology transfer, networking, clusters and open innovation in SMEs, Key Enabling Technologies: supporting research, pilot lines, early product validation actions, advanced manufacturing capabilities and first production
