WP 2020 for Nanotechnologies, Advanced Materials, Biotechnology and Advanced Manufacturing & Processing

Horizon 2020 - NMBP Call 2020 National Info day Rome - 18th September 2019

Strategic Context: Importance of EU Manufacturing

• 64% of private R&D investment

• 2.1 million enterprises (9% of total)

• 36 million jobs + many indirect jobs via related services

• Biggest purchaser & user of KETs: huge potential for innovation

But

– Low private R&D investment compared to international partners – 1.4%

– Third largest contributor of GHG emissions

– Dependence on imported raw materials and technologies

Materials Characterisation and modelling should become an integrated part of industrial R&D, leading the way to the reliable design of new and safe materials and processes, rapid upscaling and effective quality control There is a need to provide industrial users with central access to models and characterisation tools that can meet their specific requirements throughout the value chain. All funded projects should contribute actively to the ongoing relevant European initiatives, in particular the EMCC (European Materials Characterisation Council), the EMMC (European Materials Modelling Council), the EPPN (European Pilot Production Network and similar European clusters and networks

The overall challenge here is to establish an appropriate risk governance framework and to ensure that technologies which go beyond state of the art are accepted by stakeholders (including civil society, industry, regulators). This requires working on three different layers: (i) a scientific research layer for sound foundations, (ii) a regulatory research layer to validate and translate the

scientific findings into appropriate regulatory frameworks and implementation, and

(iii)a market layer dealing with the daily management of risks and safety.

These three distinct layers should be integrated through actions for risk governance, risk assessment and safe by design. Proposals in this area should apply Open Access and the Open Data Access policies and support strongly the activities of EU regulatory bodies and agencies, and of international organisations like ISO, CEN and OECD.
