Presentation content • Operational Program Research and Development for Innovation – basic facts; • OP R&DI – Selected Strategy; • OP R&DI – Priority Axes and Allocations; • OP R&DI – Supported Activities; • OP R&DI – Current State of Implementation.
Operational Programme Research and Development for Innovation • The global objective of the OP R&DI is to strengthen the research, development and innovation potential of the Czech Republic that shall contribute to its economic growth, competitiveness and to the creation of highly qualified workplaces so that the Czech regions can become important locations for the concentration of these activities within Europe. • Managing Authority: Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports; • Total financial allocation: 2,436 billion EUR; • Beneficiaries: research organisations(definition of the Community Framework for State Aid for Research & Development and Innovation (2006/C 323/01), Article 2.2., Letter d;) • Adopted by the EC in September 2008.
OP R&DI – Priority Axes and Allocations • PO1: Centres of excellence – 806 mil. EUR; • PO2: Regional R&D Centres – 806 mil. EUR; • PO3: Commercialisation and popularisation of R&D – 250 • mil. EUR; • PO4: Infrastructure for university education related to research – 487 mil. EUR.
Priority Axis 1 – European Centers of Excellence • Centre of Excellence • a research centre equipped with modern, often unique infrastructure producing, on international scale, outstanding research results, including results that can be applied in practice. These centres create strong strategic partnerships with prestigious research laboratories (both private and public) in the Czech Republic and abroad. Partnerships help to enhance the integration of Czech R&D teams with leading international research organizations and European research infrastructures. • Call • June 1 –November 16 2009, allocation 17 bil. CZK.
Priority Axis 2 – Regional R&D Centers • Regional R&D Centre • application-oriented workplaces with developed cooperation and strong bonds with partners from the application sphere (enterprises, mainly SME, and other subjects and result users); their activities will enhance regional competitiveness and potential to export goods, services and know-how. • Calls • Dec. 15 2008 – April 30 2009, allocation: 6 bil. CZK (excl • June 15 2009 – November 16 2009, allocation: 11 bil. CZK
Priority Axis 3 – Commercialisation and popularisation of R&D • Establishment and development of Science-Learning Centres and Popularisation Centres. • Establishment and development of Information infrastructures for R&D. • Calls: end of 2009 • Establishment and development of technology transfer offices (TTOs) within research organisations. • Development of new elements of evaluation and strategic governance of R&D policy (improvement of the evaluation system of research organisations)
Priority Axis 4 – Infrastructure for university education related to research • Development of a quality infrastructure of universities with the purpose of increasing the capacity of tertiary education and creating conditions for the improvement of the quality of education (prerequisite for a necessary quantitative and qualitative increase in supply of human resources for research and innovation). • Call • August 17 2009 – December 31 2010, allocation: 10 bil. CZK
OP R&DI – Current State of Implementation • 3 open calls, 1 closed; • Total allocation: 44 bil. CZK; • Results of the first call (6 bil. CZK): • 44 projects, • Requested allocation: 23,6 bil. CZK, • 8 selected projects, 8 others on the reserve list, • Areas of research: environment and sustainable development, mechanical engeneering advanced technologies and innovation, material science, veterinary medicine, biotechnology, agriculture etc.
OP R&DI – Current State of ImplementationEvaluation of projects Submission of proposal Formal evaluation and evaluation of eligibility Expert evaluation Evaluation of application potential, incl. synergies and financial sustainability → Panel for Applications Evaluation of construction and technical aspects of proposals (1st level) Evaluation by international experts → International Panel Evaluation of construction and technical aspects of proposals (2nd level) Selection at the level of Managing Authority (Selection Committee) 4. Specification of performance parameters („negotiation“)
