1 FET in H European Commission DG CONNECT Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) Unit Ales Fiala, Head of Unit

2 H2020, three pillars Societal challenges Excellent Science FET Industrial leadership

3 FET in H2020 Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) will aim at radically new technologies by exploring novel and high risk ideas building on scientific foundations FET will promote research beyond what is known, accepted or widely adopted and foster novel and visionary thinking to open promising paths towards powerful new technologies The supported research will be interdisciplinary and positioned between research driven by science and research driven by societal challenges or by industrial competitivness FET will support activities to make Europe the best place for collaborative research on future and emerging technologies

4 FET in H2020 FET three complementary schemes Open, light and agile Roadmap based research Individual research projects Early Ideas FET Open Clusters of projects Exploration and Incubation FET Proactive Common research agendas Large-Scale Partnering Initiatives FET Flagships Exploring Developing Addressing novel ideas topics & communities grand challenges

5 FET Open in FP7 141 Funded projects

6 FET Open in H2020 Fostering new ideas supporting early-stage science and technology research exploring new foundations for radically new future technologies by challenging current paradigms and venturing into unknown areas A bottom-up selection process widely open to any research ideas Attractive to new and high-potential research and innovation players Mechanisms for early detection and encouragement of promising new areas, developments and trends Modelled on FP7 Xtrack

7 FET gate keepers Long-term vision of technological possibilities far beyond the state-of-the-art Foundational establishing a basis for a new kind of technology Novelty not incremental refinement of existing ideas and concepts S&T targeted research targets concrete breakthroughs in S&T High-risk countered by novel concepts and ideas and interdisciplinary research approach Interdisciplinarity going beyond current mainstream collaboration configurations

8 Xtrack pilot Xtrack pilot³ a new submission format, a new evaluation process, a new SEP system Get lighter From light submission to light end to end process 10-page proposal & '10+ page' project technical annexe Mid-term and final review based on periodic scientific report Get faster Reduce time from idea to contract in FET Open 1-step submission with 2-stage evaluation Get more robust Combine internal scalability with high quality review

9 FET Proactive 22 Initiatives in FP7 FP7 FP5-6

10 FET Proactive in H2020 Nurturing emerging themes and communities Exploratory objective Exploring a variety of directions, building up critical mass of researchers and groups around promising emerging themes Encouraging of new inter-disciplinary collaborative explorations around a new area/theme Pathfinding objective Translating science into concrete technological directions Projects building on proofs-of-concept and, while still highrisk, want to take them to a next level of development Consolidating technological directions to be mature enough for hand-over (to LEIT, societal challenges, FET Flagships, ) Modelled on FP7 Xtrack?

11 Identifying New proactive topics Internal market for ideas Stakeholders (include LEIT & SC actors) FET Evidence Base 1 st on-line forum => 165 ideas Portfolio and Community Analysis Trends and Early Signals Indicators Strategic Programming 9 proposed proactive topics Digest 2 nd on-line forum Consult other units/dgs FET Advisory Board Research priorities for the list of proposed proactive topics Finalise Consultation FET Workprogramme

12 FET Proactive topics in H contributions received to the FET consultation on the proposed pro-actives Understanding time for new technologies Symbiosis between artificial and natural systems Adaptive bottom-up construction Ecological ubiquitous technologies New possibilities at the nano-bio-chem interface Knowing, doing and being, cognition beyond problem solving Nanoscale opto-mechanical devices - 59 Quantum simulation and networking - 71 Global Systems Science comments

13 HPC in FET A special FET initiative in computer science focused on the next generation of high-performance computing (HPC) Three elements of HPC strategy: Developing the next generation of HPC towards exascale Providing access to the best supercomputing facilities and services Achieving excellence in HPC applications Topics: HPC Core Technologies with Application Validation Programming Environments for extreme Parallelism Mathematics and Algorithms for Extreme Parallelism HPC Ecosystem Development System Software for Extreme-Scale Systems Emerging HPC Workloads Targeted Opening with Russia FET

14 FET Flagship concept To help overcome the fragmentation of European research & innovation effort and increase its impact Ambitious, large-scale, science-driven, goal-oriented, roadmap-based research initiatives Provide a strong basis for future technological innovation and novel benefits for society Require: - A long-term commitment of all stakeholders sharing a common scientific vision - A joint effort of EU and national programmes (~100 M /year over 10 years) 14

15 FET Flagships towards H2020 The need was identified by a FET working group of ISTAG 2009 Preparatory Phase Pilots 05/11-04/12 Call for Preparatory Actions 21 6 July 2010 Stimulating ideas & structuring the scientific community Flagship selection 6 2 end 2012 HBP & Graphene ramp-up phase Oct Mar. 2016

16 Graphene Graphene, is a 2D material, a single layer of carbon atoms, stronger than diamond, yet lightweight and flexible and an exceptional electricity conductor. The Graphene Flagship will bring graphene, and related 2D materials, from academic labs to industry, manufacturing and society. Examples of products: electronic paper bendable smartphones enhanced solar cells and batteries lighter and more energy efficient airplanes. On the longer term, graphene is expected to give rise to new computers and revolutionary medical applications such as artificial retinas. Nokia Morph concept - Credit: Nokia Research Center Start Date: 1/10/2013 Duration: 30 Months EC Funding: 54 M No of Partners: 75

17 Human Brain Project (HBP) Building a realistic model of the human brain, from genes to mind, on a complex simulation and visualization facility with super computers, to allow: - New neuroscience - New medicine (drugs simulation, diseases signature) - New brain-inspired "neuromorphic" computing Start Date: 1/10/2013 Duration: 30 Months EC Funding: 54 M No of Partners: 85

18 Call for new partners Call for new partners* to join the running Flagship EU funded project Calls launched by the Flagship consortia Aim: to complement expertise Publication: summer/autumn 2013 Budget: ~ 8-9 M per Flagship * Only for new beneficiaries i.e. organisations which are not part of the existing consortium
