  2. The 7th Research Framework Strengthen the scientific and technological base of European industry; Encourage Europe’s international competitiveness, while promoting research that supports EU policies. • Some Numbers: • Total Budget 52 B€ • ICT Budget 9.2 B€ • 1900 UK Participations • Grant ~ 750 M € • Duration 7 Years 2007 - 2013

  3. Socio-economic goals 5. ICT for Health, Ageing Well, Inclusion and Governance 6. ICT for a low carbon economy 7. ICT for the Enterprise and Manufacturing 8. ICT for Learning and Access to Cultural Resources Public Private Partnerships Factory of the Future Green Car EnergyEfficientBuildings 1 Pervasive and Trusted Network and Service Infrastructures 2 Cognitive Systems and Robotics Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) 3 Alternative Paths to Components and Systems ENIAC ARTEMIS 4 Technologies for Digital Content and Languages FP7 ICT Areas of Research 2011-2013 Future Internet Technology roadblocks

  4. The future “As in a glass darkly”

  5. What is new? • Growth, Jobs & Competitiveness • Better articulation of research and innovation • Seamless funding from idea to market • A single programme (FP7 + CIP + EIT) • Strong focus on societal challenges (game changing for ICT…) • More innovation • Reaching out to non-traditional actors • More risk taking • Strengthened support for high-tech SMEs • More open, light & fast schemes

  6. Innovation • Activities directly aiming at producing plans and arrangements for new, altered or improved products, processes or services • May include: Protyping, Testing, Demonstrating, Piloting, Large-scale product validation and Market replication

  7. H2020: What’s Important? Industrial leadership SocietalChallenges Excellent Science

  8. European Parliament Council Generation of H2020 Commission Horizon 2020 Legislation Commission Communication The proposal The three documents Establishing Regulation Rules for the participation and dissemination Independent expert input Specific programme Member State oversight Advisory Groups & Stakeholder Groups On 25 June 2013, political agreement was reached ProgrammeCommittees Multi-annual Work Programmes (with indicative budget) http://ec.europa.eu/research/horizon2020/index_en.cfm?pg=h2020-documents

  9. Main elements ofThe H2020 Compromise A simple funding model:. • 100% Direct Costs + 25% [70% for Innovation only] • Time-to-grant of 8 months ("5 + 3 months”) • Guidelines on the transfer of indirect to direct costs for large research infrastructures. Some new activities • "Spreading excellence and widening participation" and "Science with and for society" are addressed as separate parts outside the three main pillars. • New Societal Challenge 7 on "Secure Societies". • New activities on cross-cutting marine and maritime research (Challenge 2) and Cultural heritage (Challenges 5 and 6). Dedication of budgets to key topics: SME Research & Innovation, Energy and FET • Target of at least 20% of the combined budget of LEIT and Societal Challenges for SMEs. • 5% [> 7% ] of the combined budget of LEIT and Societal Challenges will be distributed through the SME instrument • Energy, 85% of the budget is set for non-fossil fuel energy research; rest dedicated to fossil fuel related energy research • 40% of the FET budget is earmarked for FET Open.

  10. Main elements ofThe H2020 Compromise Fast Track to Innovation Pilot: • A Fast Track to Innovation pilot is to be launched in 2015 : • For close-to-market actions maxima: of 5 partners and 3M€ per project • open calls with three cut-off deadlines per year • fast time to grant • project will not require Programme Committee approval. • covering all fields across Industrial Leadership and Societal Challenges Pillars • The pilot will include a sufficient number of projects to allow for an in depth evaluation that will be part of the mid-term evaluation of H2020. Future implementation of the Fast Track will be decided on the basis of the evaluation results. Derogations from the Rules of Participation for JTIs • Derogations from the Rules for Participation for JTIs are restricted to specified areas and are to be adopted by delegated acts. Revenues and repayments of the financial instruments • Derogation from the Financial Regulation will permit both revenues and repayments to be returned to the financial instruments.

  11. What sort of projects? • Collaborative Projects: • CP 100% / 70% pka STREP, IP • Public Private Partnerships, • Joint Technology Initiatives • MS Collaborative ERANET, FET Flagships • Pilots A?, B • Cooperation & Support aka CSA,….. • Market stimulation • Pre Commercial Procurement • Public Procurement of Innovation • ETC: • Prizes, IP, International Cooperation, Financial Support, FET Proactive, … • Continuous submission: • FET(open), Fast Innovation(2015 ----), SME

  13. SME support: integrated approach 'Innovation in SMEs' 20 % budgetary target in Industrial & Social

  14. SME instrument ? Procurement Demonstration Market Replication Research Development Concept & Feasibility Assessment Commercialisation SME window EU financial facilities IDEA business coaching throughout the project MARKET 10 Page proposal 50 k€ Grant 10% success rate Delivers Business plan etc From Business plan etc 1 – 5 M€ Grant 50% success rate No Direct Financial support Mentoring etc by Support Projects Gotchas: Money to SMEs Only Strict limit on no of applications by given company

  16. Remember the three pillars Industrial leadership SocietalChallenges Excellent Science

  17. Europe 2020 priorities • Societal Challenges • Health, demographic change andwellbeing • Food security, sustainable agriculture and • the bio-based economy • Secure, clean and efficient energy • Smart, green and integrated transport • Climate action, resource efficiency and raw materials • Inclusive, innovative and reflective societiesSecure Societies • Industrial Leadership • Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies • ICT • Nanotech., Materials, Manuf. and Processing • Biotechnology • Space • Access to risk finance • Innovation in SMEs ICT ICT ICT ICT ICT ICT ICT Excellence in the Science Base Frontier research (ERC) Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) Skills and career development (Marie Curie) Research infrastructures ICT ICT

  18. Work programme structure • General introduction (incl. Strategic Programme) • Excellent Science (not ERC) • Industrial Leadership • Societal Challenges • Science with and for Society • Widening Participation • Annexes NB: Distinct WPs for: ERC & Euratom SocietalChallenges Industrial leadership Excellent Science Efforts to enhance presentation of calls on web, for example: • Tagging for smart searching • glossary • FAQ etc

  19. ICT in Industrial Leadership • A new generation of components and systems • Advanced Computing • Future Internet • Content technologies and information management • Robotics • Micro- and nano-electronic technologies, Photonics • ICT Cross-Cutting Activities • IoT, Human Centricity, Cyber Security • Horizontal ICT Innovation actions • Support: Finance, Entrepreneurship, Open Disruptive Innovation scheme • International Cooperation actions • Factory of the Future Call • EU-Brazil and EU-Japan Research R and Development Cooperation SocietalChallenges Industrial leadership Excellent Science http://www.ictic.org/h/doc%20index.html Skip detail
