Excellence in Science Added Value Manufacturing s Role in Horizon 2020? Competitive Industries Tackling Societal Challenges ERC FET Marie Curie Actions Infrastructure Support Budget = 24.6 billion Key Enabling Technologies (KETs) Biotechnology Nanotechnologies Advanced materials (~75% nano) Production engineering Micro- and nano-electronics & photonics Space technologies NB: PLUS KETs are the engine room for 1. Added Risk Finance Value Manufacturing & 2. could Support support for SMEs all other KICs Budget = 13.7 billion (KETs Budget = 6.7 billion) Health, demographic change and well-being Food security and the bio-based economy Secure, clean and efficient energy Smart, green and integrated transport Supply of raw materials Resource efficiency and climate action Inclusive, innovative and secure societies NB: Focus for EIT KICs & JRC Pull through for AVM? Budget = 31.7 billion Research & Innovation Value Chain
Concluding Remarks Higher Education can provide: Starting points for key enabling technology options for all other KIC s AVM translational research capability proven in national and EU open innovation ecosystems Novel approaches for integrating business school research & training into KIC models for accelerated radical innovation in AVM High (added) Value Manufacturing is one of the UK s top 3 priorities for future KICs (+Healthcare and Future4Food) David Willetts, Minister of Science & Universities EIT Conference, 3 Oct 2012, London
