  1. ESFRI and the European Roadmap forResearch InfrastructuresElena RighiEuropean CommissionOPTICON, Edinburgh, 22-23 June 2006

  2. What is ESFRI? • European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures (ESFRI) • Launched in April 2002 • Brings together representatives of the 25 EU Member States and 7 Associated States, appointed by Research Ministers, and one representative of the European Commission (EC)

  3. ESFRI’s role and ambitions • To jointly reflect on the development of strategic policies for pan-European Research Infrastructures; • To prepare a European Roadmap (with regular updates as different areas mature); • To act as an incubator for RI projects with pan-European interest… but it is not a decision making body

  4. Objectives of European Roadmap • Identification of new research infrastructures or major upgrades which correspond to the needs of European research communities • Tool for decision makers, preventing over-provision of facilities in particular areas • Providing a focus for long term budgetary planning by funding actors

  5. Spontaneous proposals for pan-European projects Filter by national delegations ESFRI request for a stage-gate process Roadmap Working Groups EIROs, Nuppec, ESF, e-IRG, national Roadmaps + other EU level roadmap, Global Projects, etc… Possible analysis by Expert Groups ESFRI Roadmap Procedure (simplified version)

  9. Timetable (ESFRI phase 1)

  10. ESFRI validation phase • From early July to early September 2006, • the ESFRI delegates should ensure that a process of “political” validation at the level of their respective Member states is carried out • and in particular highlighting possible: • Projects supported and/or • Projects not really supported by any State • Missing projects to be (re)considered in the next phase

  11. Timetable (ESFRI phase 2)
