  9. EP Draft Report on the CSF (Horizon 2020)by Marisa Matias MEP • Double research budget for next MFF • New funding instrument: EU-SME Bank • More trust-based and risk-tolerant approach for funding • Better articulation between local, regional, national and European R&I strategies • Reinforce researchers’ mobility

  10. Matias Report: Approved Amendments • Double the R&I budget, excluding the budget devoted to R&D&I within the Structural Funds and the EIB • Increased tolerable risk of error rate, broad acceptance of usual accounting methods, use of lump sums and flat rates (on a voluntary basis), significant reduction of reporting, strong IPR regulatory framework • MS should be more engaged in Joint Programming measures • Participation of SMEs in R&D&I collaborative projects should reach 15%

  11. Matias Report: ApprovedAmendments • « SME Bank »  replaced by «EU SME Programme», conceived as a specialized branch of the EIB (fully devoted to SME innovation projects) • KICs with more narrowed focus, more concentrated network and reduced budget • Creation of an « all-European fund» financed by the Structural Funds to promote collaborative European research • Creation of an additional research budget for « excellent » non-selected project proposals (with the involvement of EC, MS and regional and Structural Funds).

  12. Changes in IMI JTI Funding Model Article in Nature Biotechnology magazine Letter from the IMI Governing Board: • Reimbursement of indirect costs (as an alternative to the 20% cap)
