Antecedentes
Open Innovation, Open Science, Open to the World
(22 June 2015)
Carlos Moedas
Commissioner for Research, Science and Innovation
A new start for Europe:
Opening up to an ERA of Innovation’ Conference

Horizonte 2020
Los desafíos
“We are too rarely succeeding in getting research results to
market. Technologies developed in Europe are most of the time
commercialised elsewhere”
“Although Europe generates more scientific output than any other
region in the world, in some areas we fall behind on the very best
science. At the same time, there is a revolution happening in the
way science works. Every part of the scientific method is becoming
an open, collaborative and participative process”
“Europe punches below its weight in international science and
science diplomacy. Our collective scientific importance should be
matched by a more active voice in global debates”

Horizonte 2020
Las prioridades
1. Open Innovation…
…is about involving far more actors in the innovation
process, from researchers, to entrepreneurs, to users, to
governments and civil society. We need open innovation
to capitalise on the results of European research and
innovation. This means creating the right ecosystems,
increasing investment, and bringing more companies
and regions into the knowledge economy”

Las prioridades
2. Open Science…
“…I am convinced that excellent science is the
foundation of future prosperity, and that openness is the
key to excellence. We are often told that it takes many
decades for scientific breakthroughs to find commercial
application”
“Our ultimate goal should always be to promote
excellence not only through ERC and Marie Skłodowska-
Curie but throughout the entire H2020”

3. Openness to the World…
“Europe is a global leader in science, and this
should translate into a leading voice in global
debates. To remain relevant and competitive, we
need to engage more in science diplomacy and
global scientific collaboration. It is not sufficient to
only support collaborative projects; we need to
enable partnerships between regions and
countries” (¿more ERA-Net, JPIs, ETPs…?)
10
Horizonte 2020
Las propuestas…
“Horizon 2020 has made a huge step forward in supporting
innovation. I am very proud of this. But I also see that Europe does
not yet have a world class scheme to support the very best
innovations in the way that the European Research Council is the
global reference for supporting excellent science”.
“So I would like us to take stock of the various schemes to support
innovation and SMEs under Horizon 2020, to look at best practice
internationally, and to design a new European Innovation Council.
This is not for tomorrow, but I believe we should discuss it as a major
element under the mid term review of Horizon 2020”
11
Horizonte 2020
Potenciales escenarios…
Ventanilla única
Creación portal en Internet que aglutine toda la información
necesaria sobre las subvenciones de la UE a la innovación.
Ventaja Inconveniente
Fácil redistribución de recursos
humanos y financieros en la
Comisión
Impacto muy limitado frente a
la situación actual
12
Horizonte 2020
Potenciales escenarios… Panel de sabi@s
Consejo asesor para prioridades de financiación de la Comisión
Ventajas Inconvenientes
Impacto de la innovación en la
normativa UE
Solapamiento con el SAM (Scientific
Advice Mechanism)
Supervisor de un programa de premios Solapamiento con el European
Political Strategy Centre (grupo
asesor del Presidente de la
Comisión)
Miembros “invitados” (estudiantes,
antropólogos, ciudadanos, inventores,
etc…)
13
Horizonte 2020
Potenciales escenarios…
Agrupaciones de excelencia siguiendo el modelo del
consorcio Airbus
Problema
Supone duplicar la configuración actual del European
Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT)
14
Horizonte 2020
Potenciales escenarios… Un “gemelo” del European Research Council
Ventaja Problema
Se seguiría el modelo de éxito
del ERC subvencionando a
innovadores excepcionales
Si los beneficiarios son
elegidos por empresas de
capital riesgo existe un riesgo
claro de conflicto de intereses
15
Horizonte 2020
Potenciales escenarios… Modelo basado en el de la Agencia Federal DARPA
(US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency)
A favor En contra
Apoyo a investigadores de excelencia
orientados hacia el campo comercial y
liderados por empresarios experimentados
en proyectos de alto riesgo/alto retorno con
plazos de ejecución muy ajustados
Restricciones presupuestarias
Ausencia de legislación ad-
hoc
16
Horizonte 2020
Potenciales escenarios…
Híbrido: agencia de financiación de proyectos de alto
riesgo y consejo asesor
A favor En contra
Financiación de proyectos que
propongan avances prometedores y no
solo innovación meramente
incremental
Esta opción alteraría los sistemas de
financiación de la I+I de la UE y
tendría implicaciones importantes en
el papel que debe jugar el EIT
EIC: función asesora, consultaría a las
agencias nacionales de innovación y
daría subvenciones para facilitar que
los investigadores entren en el mundo
empresarial

Horizonte 2020
The EIC should not lead to the creation of new structures at
high additional cost. It would be better to reorganise the
workings of existing bodies.
The EIC should not be funded from the existing Horizon 2020
budget.
The EIC should bridge between the ERC (TRL 1 to 3) and
venture capital and the EIB (TRL 7 and higher).
Explore streamlining current support instruments, including
abolishing or merging those which are too similar.
The SME Instrument does what is needed, however you would
need to scale it up. The funding should be linked directly to
market success.
If you want ambitious disruptive innovation, one needs to accept
that they come with huge risks. For every success in such an
investment we can expect maybe 20 or 30 failures.
23
Horizonte 2020
Real disruptive, i.e. ground breaking innovation comes from
basic/frontier research.
The very innovative point of ERC is that it is focused on ONE
person. If the EU wants to increase the number of unicorns, it
should provide money to potential unicorns, not to
consortiums.
The EIC does not need to be a physical institution like the
ERC or the EIT. The EIC would be better placed as a virtual
institution acting as a signposting mechanism.
The SME instrument together with the Fast Track to
Innovation could well function as the core of EIC. They need
more money, they should both be genuinely bottom-up, the
calls should be constantly open, the procedures must be fast
and easy..
EIC operation: bottom-up approach with no thematic topics
“Interaction between national and European R&I funding”
DE State Secretary , Dr Georg Schütte
SE's ERA High-Level Workshop 2016 (Oslo, 2-3 May 2016)
European added value will also play a role in shaping the European
Innovation Council (EIC). According to our own analyses, there is no
gap in the system of European innovation funding. The European
funding system covers the entire spectrum of the Technology Readiness
Level with a variety of instruments.
The example of the EIC is currently making this clear. As I have already
stated, we see no gap in European innovation funding which this could
close. What are lacking, however, are the compatibility and the
consistency of the instruments with one another.

Horizonte 2020
¿Y a día de hoy…?
22 de mayo: plan preliminar presentado a los
comisarios relacionados con la I+I
27 de mayo: la Comisión informa al Consejo de
Competitividad del resultado de la consulta pública
26
Horizonte 2020
Se reducen opciones por los obstáculos políticos:
El nuevo Consejo saldría de la transformación gradual del
Instrumento para PYMEs de H2020 (2.800 MEUR)
EIC piloto en el período 2018-2020
Sin temática predefinida, periodos de concesión más
rápidos y financiación basada en subvención +
instrumentos financieros
27
Horizonte 2020
Esta opción evitaría:
redistribuir el presupuesto
cambiar las reglas de participación
pedir la aprobación formal del Parlamento Europeo
28
Horizonte 2020
Además:
Las convocatorias de innovación se agruparían en una parte
específica de la web de H2020 remodelada y más atractiva:
Nuevo instrumento para PYMEs
Challenge Prizes
Fast Track to Innovation
FET Open
Creación de un consejo asesor de innovadores (emprendedores
en serie, start-ups, business angels y capital riesgo)
Estrecha colaboración del EIC con el EIT, el EIB y Eureka
