  2. What is Horizon 2020? The EU’s 2014-20 programmefor research & innovation A core part of Europe 2020, Innovation Union &European Research Area http://ec.europa.eu/research/horizon2020

  3. Funding(million EUR, 2014-2020)

  4. Horizon 2020 - Societal Challenge 1 • Translating science to benefit citizens • Improve health outcomes • Support a competitive health & care sector • Test and demonstrate new health & care models, approaches and tools • Promote healthy and active ageing Also look elsewhere! EU support of health related research & innovation is not limited to Societal Challenge 1

  5. New Approach Challenge-driven Broad topics Less prescriptive topic texts Two-year work programme Stronger focus on end users

  6. More Opportunities for SMEs • 20% of the total budget for societal challenges/LEITs to go to SMEs • Simplification – a great benefit to SMEs • A new SME instrument • 'Innovation in SMEs' - a dedicated activity for research-intensive SMEs • 'Access to risk finance' with strong SME focus (debt and equity facility) Image courtesy of Vlado/ FreeDigitalPhotos.net

  7. Wanted: international cooperation • A priority • Key goal: more and better international cooperation • Horizon 2020 is open to participation from across the world • Targeted actions across the entire programme • Horizon 2020 Regulation and Rules for Participation apply • Participants from USA can be funded in SC1 (but not other SCs)

  8. Getting you started faster • A single set of simpler andmore coherent participation rules • New trust/control balance • Just 2 funding rates for different beneficiaries and activities (70 and 100%) • Single flat rate for overhead or 'indirect costs' (25%) • Simpler financial regulationto come • 8 months' time-to-grant(exceptions for the ERC and in duly justified cases) Image courtesy of ponsuwan/ FreeDigitalPhotos.net
