  4. Nokia/NRC views to Research Framework Programmes • We are interested in agile instruments boosting innovation and European level collaboration in topics that fit to NRC and Nokia strategy. • Mobile industry has a tremendous pace of evolution • Nokia/NRC remains strongly committed to co-creation and contribution within Europe research ecosystem • Nokia is active in the European area also including the EIT agenda (ICTlabs) and JTIs (Artemis - leading two big projects)

  5. Nokia/NRC views to Research Framework Programmes • Because of the tremendous pace of evolution in our industry • A much shorter timescale for FP projects is needed • Application process and the duration of the projects, 12-18 months more suitable • Alternatively, at least a 1 year break/review/steering point in 2 year projects • 3 year projects are not ideal • The FP program can play a key role in materializing our commitment, provided that the FP programs is adjusted to reflect the changes in our business and technology environment, namely: • accelerated pace of innovation (see point above) • cross-disciplinary convergence • increase relevance of software/service centred innovation • Opportunity to strengthen the innovation ecosystem in Europe with involvement of SMEs • EU/FP projects can unleash innovation thrust • SMEs' involvement should be made easier - leaner bureaucracy  and stronger monetary incentives could be the only way to attract more SMEs
