  2. Horizon Europe is the Commission proposal for a € 100 billion research and innovation funding programme for seven years (2021-2027) to strengthen the EU's scientific and technological bases to boost Europe's innovation capacity, competitiveness and jobs to deliver on citizens' priorities and sustain our socio-economic model and values € 4.1 billion are proposed to be allocated for defence research, in a separate proposal for a European Defence Fund

  3. Horizon Europe – Why?

  4. Horizon Europe: investing in R&I to shape our future • The vision: • Jean-Claude Juncker • Tacklingclimate change • (35 % budgetary target) • Helping to achieve SustainableDevelopment Goals • Boosting the Union's competitiveness and growth " a Europe that protects, a Europe that empowers, a Europe that defends" Credits: https://www.un.org/sustainabledevelopment/sustainable-development-goals/

  6. Horizon Europe – What?

  7. Horizon Europe: evolution not revolution Specific objectives of the Programme Support the creation and diffusion of high-quality knowledge Strengthen the impact of R&I in supporting EU policies Foster all forms of innovation and strengthen market deployment Optimise the Programme’s delivery for impact in a strengthened ERA Pillar 1 Open Science Pillar 3 Open Innovation Pillar 2 Global Challenges and Industrial Competitiveness European Innovation Council European Research Council • Health • Inclusive and Secure Society • Digital and Industry • Climate, Energy and Mobility • Food and natural resources Clusters European innovation ecosystems Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions European Institute of Innovation and Technology Research Infrastructures Joint Research Centre Strengthening the European Research Area Reforming and Enhancing the European R&I system Sharing excellence

  8. Budget: €100 billion* * This envelope includes EUR 3.5 billion allocated under the InvestEU Fund.

  9. Pillar 2Global Challenges & Industrial Competitiveness: boosting key technologies and solutions underpinning EU policies & Sustainable Development Goals

  10. Strengthening the European Research Area: optimisingstrengths & potential for a more innovative Europe • Reforming and enhancing the European R&I system • Scientific evidence & foresight • Open Science • Policy Support Facility • Attractive researcher careers • Citizen science • Responsible Research & Innovation; gender equality • Sharing Excellence • Teaming (institution building) • Twinning (institutional networking) • ERA Chairs bringing excellence to institutions • COST € 0.4 billion € 1.7 billion Budget doubled

  11. Horizon Europe – What's new?

  12. Lessons Learned Key Noveltiesfrom Horizon 2020 Interim Evaluation in Horizon Europe European Innovation Council Support breakthrough innovation R&I Missions Create more impact through mission-orientation and citizens' involvement Extended association possibilities Strengthen international cooperation Open science policy Reinforce openness New approach to Partnerships Rationalise the funding landscape

  13. European Innovation Council Helping innovators create markets of the future, leverage private finance, scale up their companies, European Innovation Council The EIC will support innovations with breakthrough and disruptive nature and scale up potential that are too risky for private investors. Innovation centric, risk taking & agile, pro-active management and follow up Two complementary instrumentsbridging the gap from idea to investable project Pathfinder: grants (from early technology to pre- commercial) Accelerator:grants & blended finance (from pre-commercial to market & scale-up)

  14. R&I Missions R&I Missions Connecting to citizens: Missions will relate EU's research and innovation to society and citizens' needs, with strong visibility and impact A mission will consist of a portfolio of actions intended to achieve a bold and inspirational as well as measurable goalwithin a set timeframe, with impact for science and technology, society and citizens that goes beyond individual actions. Horizon Europe proposal defines mission characteristics and criteria Specific missions will be co-designed with Member States, stakeholders and citizens and programmed within the Global Challenges and Industrial Competitiveness pillar (drawing on inputs from other pillars)

  15. New approach to European Partnerships Key features New generation of objective-driven and more ambitious partnerships in support of agreed EU policy objectives • Simple architecture and toolbox • Coherent life-cycle approach • Strategic orientation

  16. Horizon Europe – How?

  17. Strategic planning to define multiannual work programmes and calls for proposals Transparency and stakeholder involvement Prioritisation and flexibility to align to political priorities Internal programme coherence & synergies with other programmes • Multiannual Strategic R&I Plan • * Multiannualorientationsandpriorities in onedocument • * Areas forpartnershipsandmissions • Consultation with stakeholders • Strategic discussions with Member States and European Parliament • Work Programmes
