  1. Materials and Nanotechnology in the EU’s 7th Framework Programme José-Lorenzo Vallés Value-added materials DG Research European Commission

  2. Progress in Materials Sciences …and more • Nano-enhanced products increasingly appear in our everyday life, even if we do not always realise 1 - Organic Light Emitting Diodes 2 - Photovoltaic film 3 - Scratch-proof self-cleaning glass 4 - Stain resistant fabrics 5 - Intelligent clothing 6 - Bucky-tubeframe 7 - Biocompatible hip-joint 8 - Nano-particle paint 9 - Thermo-chromic glass 10 - Magnetic data memory 11 - Carbon nanotube fuel cells 12 - Nano-engineered cochlear implant Source: BBC

  3. Nano-Markets in 2015?

  4. The EU Action Plan adopted on 7 June 2005 • Eight groups of actions divided according to: • Research, Development and Innovation • Infrastructure and European Poles of Excellence • Interdisciplinary Human Resources: Creativity • Industrial Innovation: From Knowledge to the Market • Integrating the Societal Dimension: Expectations and Concerns • Public Health, Safety, Environment and Consumer Protection • International Cooperation • Implementing a Coherent Approach at European Level http://cordis.europa.eu/nanotechnology/actionplan.htm

  5. Investing in research: Towards 3% of GDP 3 Japan USA 2,5 2 Business funded R&D R&D in % of GDP 1,5 1 Public funded R&D 0,5 0 EU 2000 EU 2010 objective

  6. FP7 (2007–2013) Cooperation – Collaborative research Ideas – Frontier Research People – Human Potential Capacities – Research Capacity + JRC (non-nuclear) JRC (nuclear) Euratom

  7. FP7 budget(in billion €, total 50.521)

  8. Flexibility for Emerging needsand Unforeseen policy needs Support for Dissemination of knowledge and Transfer of results Support will be implemented across all themes through: Cooperation – Collaborative research Collaborative research (Collaborative projects; Networks of Excellence; Coordination/support actions) Joint Technology Initiatives Coordination of non-Community research programmes (ERA-NET; ERA-NET+; Article 169) International Cooperation

  9. FP7 – SP Cooperation 10 Themes (€ million) * Not including non-nuclear activities of the Joint Research Centre: €1 751 million

  10. Overall objective : To improve the competitiveness of EU industry and ensure its transformationvia: the effective transition from a resource-based to knowledge-based industry generation of new breakthrough knowledge strengthening EU leadership in nano, materials and production technologies emphasis on integrating different technologies and disciplines across many industrial sectors … strong continuity with FP6 Importance of Technology Platforms to help establish common research priorities Theme 4: NMP

  11. WP – NMP main features • NMP addresses all industrial sectors • Stimulates strong participation of SMEs • Promotes a multi-disciplinary approach • Favours cooperation across the supply chain • Two stage proposal submission (except CSA) • Budget allocation by call (~500 M€ / year) • Yearly updated WP: e.g. nanostructured composites, coatings, catalysts, magnets were open last year

  12. NMP Strategic FrameworkTechnology coverage Downstream Technology IntegrationMulti-sectoral BenefitsCross / Single-sector Integration Large scale projects Upstream Technology Development Multi-sectoral Potential Small / Medium scale projects Nanosciences Nanotechnologies Materials Technologies Production Technologies NMP

  13. Policy input Industry, Environment, Social Affairs, Health Strategic Research Agendas of Technology Platforms Society / Industry / user driven Strong involvement of Research Centres / Academia Priority for multi-sectoral benefits / applications Advisory bodies / Stakeholders / Public Consultations Foresight studies Portfolios of on-going projects NMP Operational ApproachPrioritisation through Dialogue

  14. Four activities: Nanosciences and nanotechnologies Materials New production Integration of technologies for industrial applications Theme 4:NMP

  15. Funding Schemes - NMP Collaborative projects Small or medium scale focussed projects < € 4 million EC funding requested Large scale integrating projects > € 4 million EC funding requested SME-targeted projects: at least 35% to SMEs Networks of Excellence (not in these calls) Coordination and Support actions WP - NMP
