POLISH STRATEGY FOR STRENGTHENING RESEARCH AND INNOVATION KRZYSZTOF KURZYDŁOWSKI MINISTRY OF EDUCATION AND SCIENCE
Heritage(1945 – 1989) • Economy destroyed by WW II • Era of Central Planning • Ambition of „a fully independent state” (in a global economy)
Transition Period • A relatively large nation • Need to focus on urgent problems (restructuring of industry) • Innovations based on basic resources (labour costs, technology adoption)
Motivations for R&D based innovations Source: European Innovation Scoreboard 2005
Strategy • Sustainable development (incremental growth) • Priority areas (break-through strategy) • R&D based innovations • Use of Structural Funds Time scale
European Experience with Cohesion Regions • Ireland • Greece • Spain • Poland
Economic Growth Poland - GDP
Means • National Framework Programme (2005) • Polish Technology Platforms (2005) • Technology Clusters (2006) • Mobility and Human Resources (2006) • National Research Centre (2007) • Optimized Use of Structural Funds (2007 – 2013)
Absorption of Structural Funds for Innovation • Human resources and mobility • Programmes: • Mobility between science and industry • Young scientists • International mobility • Returning scientists
Science and Industry • PPT Food • PPT Biotechnology • PPT Hydrogen and Fuel Cells • PPT Metals • PPT Aerospace • PPT Sustainable and Clear Fossil Energy Systems • PPT Water Transport • PPT Textile Industry • PPT Sustainable Chemistry
Science and Industry II • PPT Road Transport • PPT Steel • PPT ICT • PPT Foresters • PPT Construction • PPT Opto- and Nanotechnology • PPT Manufacturing • PPT Safety • PPT Advanced Materials
An Example - Aeronautics ACARE • SRA: • general aviation small plane • small helicopter • supply chain for global industry
Aviation Valleyregional innovation cluster • Local initiative • Supply chain • 66 Y of tradition • 30 companies • 9000 employees • Sales 250M€ • Airports • Technical Universities www.aviationvalley.pl
National R&D Centre Vision High quality research at acceptable cost R&D strategic to social and economic development of the state. Mission • Top-down coordination of key R&D programmes • Research Infrastructure • Development of human resources • Participation in ERA
Foresight Objectives • Priorities for R&D • Public debate • From traditional to knowledge based economy
