  1. Structured Dialogue with ESIF’s Partners Group of ExpertsSynergies between funds and innovation Muriel Attané EARTO Secretary General 23 April 2015, Brussels

  4. Understanding European RTOs Public (local, regional, national) Task 1 – RTOs R&I Policy Advisers Task 2 – RTOs providing R&I solutions to Societal Challenges Multi-disciplinarity Multi- stakeholders & Partnerships Market/ Innovation Science Task 3 - RTOs supporting the Industry: TRL 3 TRL 7 RTOs Spin-offs SMEs Large Enterprises Private

  5. RTOs: Synergies & Combined Funding • RTOs in EU FPs= • 1/3 beneficiaries in FP7 • 14 RTOs in top 50 in FP7 • ESIF = • RIS3 ex-ante conditionality • Growing interest in innovation • RTOs active at Regional level Instruments & Coherence needed for a strong EU Innovation Policy Workshop on RTOs & Smart Specialisation on 28 May with DG JRC IPTS, co-organised with EARTO WG on ESIF

  6. Two EARTO Recommendations for EU Innovation Policy Europe needs to invest in strong value-chains and innovation ecosystems Europe needs to focus more on delivering impact from EU and national R&I investments

  7. Improving EU Innovation Performance 1. Regions need to use their innovation actors to define & develop their smart specialisation, incl. RTOs! 2. Synergies are not the target but a tool: creation of mature innovation ecosystems is the target! Time is key factor... LINKED R&I & Cohesion Policies WELCOME! 3. Measuring synergies needs to be place-based (i.e not project-based) judging how well ecosystems were supported by RIS3 strategies 4. Measuring synergies should NOT be based on how much H2020 projects are linked to ESIF projects ≠ RIS3 performance targets RTOs ready to support!

  8. EARTO–ERRIN Views on Combined Funding

  9. Synergies & Combined Funding: Tools to support innovation ecosystems maturation! Downstream Upstream EFSI/Juncker Plan EFSI/Juncker Plan Different funding tools coming in at different TRLs level & different timing: need coherence & require time! Synergies = done by the R&I actors within those ecosystems with support of the regional authorities
