Horizon 2020 objectives & structure Europe 2020 priorities International cooperation European Research Area Shared objectives and principles ICT ICT ICT ICT ICT Tackling Societal Challenges Health, demographic change and wellbeing Food security and the bio-based economy Secure, clean and efficient energy Smart, green and integrated transport Climate action, resource efficiency, including raw materials Inclusive, innovative and secure societies EIT and JRC will contribute to addressing these challenges Cre eating Industrial Leadership and Competitive Frameworks Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies Information and Communication ICT Technologies (ICT) Nanotechnology, Materials, Manufacturing and Processing Biotechnology Space Access to risk finance Innovation in SMEs ICT ICT Simplified access Excellence in the Science Base Frontier research (ERC) Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) Skills and career development (Marie Curie) Research infrastructures Common rules, toolkit of funding schemes Coherent with other EU and MS actions
Excellence in the sc cience base World class excellence; developing and attracting talent The European Research Council Future and Emerging Technologies Including the full FET suite: FET OPEn FET Proactive FET Flagships (2-6) Marie Curie actions on skil ls, training and career development European research infrastr ructures (including einfrastructures)
Societal challenges Responding directly to EU ob bjectives; whole cycle from research to market Health, demographics changes and wellbeing Food security, sustainable agriculture and the bio-based economy Secure, clean and efficient energy Smart, green and integrated transport Climate action and, reso ource efficiency, e cy, including raw materials Inclusive, innovative an d secure societies
Industrial leadership frameworks and competitive Business led R&I; raising private investment Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies of: Information and Communication Technologies Nanotechnologies, advanced materials, advanced manufacturing and processing Biotechnology Space. Innovation in SMEs Access to risk finance
ICT in Industrial lea adership 1. "A new generation of comp onents and systems" Micro, nanoelectronics and photonics tech., components and embeddedd systems engineering 2. "Next generation computing" Advanced computing systems and technologies 3. "Future Internet" infrastructures, technologies and services 4. "Media technologies and information management" ICT for digital content and creativity 5. "Advanced interfaces and robots" Robotics and smart spaces
Enabling and industrial technologies Strategic, technology focused approach With potential applicat tions in many sectors/ challenges Differentiated from: Societal challenges: demand led, combining different technologies/ solutions ERC: Bottom up
Other Priorities Grant tto the European Instit tute t for Innovation and Technology (EIT) Direct actions of the Joint Research Center Cross cutting priorities: Simpler access, openness to newcomers Dissemination & knowledge transfer European Research Area International cooperation
Why?
Added value of EU R&I funding (evaluations, other sources) Cross border pooling of resources to achieve critical mass and diffusion of knowledge Promote competition in research and innovation, thereby raising levels of excellence Offers training possibilities; enhances Europe s international attractiveness Address pan European policy challenges; hll link to EU market frameworks Leverages private investments, combines public investments, increases efficiency => R&I for smart, sustainable and inclusive growth
Stakeholder views Morethan 2000 responses to Green Paper on future EU research and innovation funding Simplification isa key priority! Bring research and innovation together in an integrated funding programme but recognise differences! Support all stages, with more attention for close to the market activities (e.g. demonstration, piloting) Build on what works, e.g. European Research Council, Marie Curie, collaborative research Better focus, linked to societal ch allenges and EU policy objectives (climate change, ageing, energy security, ) More openness andflexibility, (le ess prescriptive calls, more bottom up instruments)
Stakeholder worksh hops on priorities Discussing priorities on: Future and Emerging Technologies Innovation and Horizon 2020 Marie Curie actions Food Security, Sustainable Agriculture and the Bio Economy Research infrastructures Access to risk finance The health, demographic change and wellbeing challenge Innovation in Small and Medium Enterprises Towards more inclusive, i innovative and secure societies iti challenge hll Secure, clean and efficient energy challenge Smart, green and integrated transport challenge Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies Resource efficiency and climate action challenge All workshop reports available at: http://ec.europa.eu/research/horizon2020/index_en.cfm?pg=workshops
What s new?
Horizon 2020: Real integr ration of existing programmes The 7 th Framework Programme (FP7) for research, technological development and demonstration Innovation elements from Competitiveness and Innovation FrameworkProg gramme (CIP) Non innovation elements to be and SMEs programme included in a new Competitiveness EU funding for European Institute for Innovation and Technology (EIT) Strengthening complementaritieswith the Structural Funds
Horizon 2020 Key common features Clear set of objectives based on Europe 2020 and Innovation Union Integrating research and innovation in a seamless programme Focus on overall policy priorities using a challenge based approach Programme structured by objectives Common toolkit of funding schemes
Horizon 2020 Simpl ification Single set of rules for eligibility, accounting, reporting, auditing Simplified cost reimbursement approach Broader acceptance of usual accounting practice, greater use of lump sums and flat rates Shorter negotiation and selectio n phases Unique IT portal,, common suppo ort structures, guidance External management: learning from experience with executive agencies, public private partnerships, public to public partnerships, financial instruments
Approach for SMEs SME instrument implemented within the challenges (and enab bling technologies) Stand alone SME act tivities (in the Competitiveness block) Financial instrumentss
Approach for SMEs Light and fast SME instrument will cover: Pilot/feasibility stage R&D and demonstration Follow up support for commercialisation Stand alone SME activities ( in the Industrial Leadership block Continuation of Eurostars Joint Programme Accompanying measures (networking, training, innovation support ) Financial instruments
Funding Schemes Research and Innovatio on Grant Funding for projects of all sizes and types covering the full range of research and innovation activities The MAIN funding scheme Training i and Mobility G rant Programme co-fund Grant To bodies managing non-union R&I programmes to support networking Coordination and Support Grant Dept finance and equity investments Prizes Rewards for past achievements or inducement Prizes for achievement of a pre-specified target Procurement two types Public Pre-commercial procurement (of R&D services involving risk- benefit sharing) Public Procurement of innovative solutions (public authorities procure innovative goods and services)
Next steps Negotiations on EU budget 2014 2020 Commissionproposals for 2011 FP7 2013 Work Programmes, to bridge towards Horizon 2020 Legislative decisions on Horizon 2020 by the Council and European Parliament (2 2012 13) 13) Horizon 2020 (from 2014) Horizon 2020: before end
