  1. Dr. Gianpietro van de Goor, European CommissionResearch DG, Directorate G - Industrial Researchgianpietro.van-de-goor@cec.eu.int The 6th EU RTD framework programmeThematic Priority 3Nanotechnologies & Nanosciences, Knowledge-based Multifunctional Materials, New Production Processes & Devices • Funding Approach, Content, Instruments New Zealand RTD Delegation4th June 2003

  2. Scope & Content of Priority 3 Funding Approach Content and Topics 2003 Instruments

  3. FP6: A changing rolefor EU Research Programmes • The “Lisbon” objective:…to become the most dynamic and most competitive knowledge-based economy within 10 years • The “Göteborg” objective:sustainable development (environment, economy, welfare) • The “Barcelona” objectives: education, employment, enlargement • The “ERA” objectives (European Research Area): integrating, strengthening, structuring … … and stimulating investment in R&D in Europe (from 1,9% to 3,0%)

  4. Industrial researchfor societal needs- still a key objective of FP6 FP6 aiming at a European Knowledge-Based, Sustainable and Competitive Industry i.e.Sustainable Competitivety ! • Maintaining EUs RTD leadership • Creating RTD-intensive industry • Promote the up-take of hi-tech in industry • Develop enabling conditions(e.g. education, training, regulations, standardisation, IT tools)

  5. Integrated approach covering a wider field of disciplines, activities and sectors (value-chain and life-cycle management considering new production and consumption paradigms) From resource-intensive towards knowledge-based, environmentally-friendly technologies, materials and products (less resource-, waste- and energy-intensive industry) From mass to flexible production for products adapted to individual needs (from quantity to quality) Promotereal breakthroughsnot incremental research Interaction of stakeholders, i.e. innovative enterprises, Hi-Tec SMEs, universities & research centres, users (“society”) Integration of education & skills development Objective and Approach for Priority 3 Transition to a knowledge-based, sustainable and competitive industry

  6. FP6: 8 Thematic Priorities (Budget: 12.586 Mio. Euro)  TP3: 1.300 Mio. Euro (9%), EoI response: 1670 (13%)

  7. i) Nanotechnology – flagship for the next industrial revolution ii) Multifunctional knowledge-based materials– critical drivers of innovation iii) New production processes – key to sustainable development + iv) Integration of nanotechnologies, new materials and new production technologies (devices)– at the service of health, environment & security …1.300 million Euro …… focused on challenging areas…
