Impact of Horizon 2020 for R&I


KEY MESSAGE: Not a place for pet projects, you should be aspiring to respond to “grand challenges” H2020 is an impact focused programme


What’s new •  A single programme bringing together three separate

programmes/initiatives*

•  Coupling research to innovation – from research to retail, all forms of innovation

•  Focus on societal challenges facing EU society, e.g. health, clean energy and transport

•  Simplified access, for all companies, universities, institutes in all EU countries and beyond.

*The 7th Research Framework Programme (FP7), innovation aspects of Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme (CIP), EU contribution to the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT)

Research and Innovation

Three priorities: 1.   Excellent science 2.   Industrial leadership 3.   Societal challenges


Priority 1. Excellent science •  Why:

•  World class science is the foundation of tomorrow’s technologies, jobs and wellbeing

•  Europe needs to develop, attract and retain research talent

•  Researchers need access to the best infrastructures


Priority 2. Industrial leadership •  Why:

•  Strategic investments in key technologies (e.g. advanced manufacturing, micro-electronics) underpin innovation across existing and emerging sectors

•  Europe needs to attract more private investment in research and innovation

•  Europe needs more innovative SMEs to create growth and jobs


Priority 3. Societal challenges •  Why:

•  Concerns of citizens and society/EU policy objectives (climate, environment, energy, transport etc) cannot be achieved without innovation

•  Breakthrough solutions come from multi-disciplinary collaborations, including social sciences & humanities

•  Promising solutions need to be tested, demonstrated and scaled up


Simplification

•  Single set of simpler and more coherent participation rules

•  New balance between trust and control

•  Moving from several funding rates for different beneficiaries and activities to just two

•  Replacing the four methods to calculate overhead or «indirect costs» with a single flat rate

•  Major simplification under the forthcoming financial regulation

•  Successful applicants to get working more quickly: reduction of average time to grant by 100 days (current average of around 350 days under FP7)


The objective is to address wide ocean challenges which are cross-

cutting in nature

Environment (SC5), Transport (SC4), Energy(SC3)) and pillars of H

Who is likely to be influencing Call text? •  National government representatives •  Previously successful project coordinators •  Networks and Platforms •  Professional and trade associations •  Leading academic institutions •  NGOs •  Respected principal investigators •  Former application evaluators

TAKE HOME MESSAGES •  Understand Policy Context of H2020 •  Understand the different programmes and funding

mechanisms and identify suitable ones •  Identify opportunities that match your faculty

strategy •  Network Now! Don’t assume everyone knows you

and you will be invited •  Get Assistance: FP7 Office, NCP’s •  Know the competition •  Learn how to write a competitive application or

partner with those who do
