  1. Three Horizon2020 priorities: Excellent science Industrial leadership Societal challenges

  2. Priority 1. Excellent science • Why: • World class science is the foundation of tomorrow’s technologies, jobs and wellbeing • Europe needs to develop, attract and retain research talent • Researchers need access to the best infrastructures

  3. Proposed funding (million euro, 2014-2020)

  4. ERC Starting Grant for young, early-career top researchers (2-7 years after PhD) -up to 2 million euro for a period of 5 years. • ERC Consolidator Grant for already independent excellent researchers 7-12 years after PhD) -up to 2.75 million euro for a period of 5 years. • ERC Advanced Grant for senior research leaders with significant research achievements in the last 10 years -up to 3.5 million euro for a period of 5 years. • ERC Proof of Concept Grants for ERC grant holders who want to check the market and/or innovation potential of research results from ERC-projects -up to 150,000 euro for a period of 12 months. • ERC Synergy Grants for small groups of individual researchers -up to 15 million euro for a period up to 6 years.

  5. FET Open supports early-stage joint science and technology research around new ideas for radically new future technologies. • FET Proactive fosters transformative ICT research through a set of focused thematic initiatives(quantum simulation,HPC,robotics etc) • FET Flagships support ambitious, large-scale, long-term, science-driven, goal-oriented, roadmap-based research initiatives tackling grand challenges in S&T. 'Graphene' and 'Human Brain Project' (HBP).

  6. Priority 2. Industrial leadership • Why: • Strategic investments in key technologies (e.g. advanced manufacturing, micro-electronics) underpin innovation across existing and emerging sectors • Europe needs to attract more private investment in research and innovation • Europe needs more innovative SMEs to create growth and jobs

  7. Proposed funding (million euro, 2014-20)

  8. Priority 3. Societal challenges • Why: • Concerns of citizens and society/EU policy objectives (climate, environment, energy, transport etc) cannot be achieved without innovation • Breakthrough solutions come from multi-disciplinary collaborations, including social sciences & humanities • Promising solutions need to be tested, demonstrated and scaled up

  9. Proposed funding (million euro, 2014-2020) • *Additional €1 788m for nuclear safety and security from the Euratom Treaty activities (2014-2018). Does not include ITER.
