What is the European Research Area?
“In 2000, the EU decided to create the European Research Area (ERA) to:
• enable researchers to benefit from world-class infrastructures and work with excellent networks of research institutions;
• share, teach, value and use knowledge effectively for social, business and policy purposes;
• optimize and open European, national and regional research programmes in order to support the best research throughout Europe and coordinate these programmes to address major challenges together;
• enable Europe to contribute to global development and take a leading role in international initiatives to solve global issues.”
![Page 17: 1 Patrick Bressler Head of Unit Physical and Engineering Sciences at the European Science Foundation NuPECC meeting Munich, June 22/23, 2007 FP7 and the](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5514cb7b550346935c8b4b6f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

What is the European Research Area?
Goals:• To enhance research careers in Europe,
incite industry to invest more in European research – contributing to the creation of sustainable growth and jobs in the EU.
• To become a central pillar of the EU
'Lisbon Strategy' for growth and jobs.

Framework Programme 7
FP 7 (2007 – 2013) to implement ERA
• make Europe the knowledge-based "most dynamic competitive economy in the world"…(Lisbon goals, 3% GDP etc).
• to bundle all research-related EU initiatives in reaching the goals of growth, competitiveness and employment; along with a new Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme (CIP), Education and Training programmes, and Structural and Cohesion Funds for regional convergence and competitiveness…

European Research Council
– Reward the best researchers – Researchers gain high European and
international visibility– Keep (young) researchers in
Europe– Favour “brain gain” and “reverse
brain drain”– Competition improves quality of
research & allows benchmarking– High quality frontier research will
stimulate early-stage industrial investment & boost European share in IP and start-ups
Objectives:

European Research Council
– Two streams of activity are foreseen:• ERC Starting Independent
Researcher Grant scheme (ERC Starting Grant)– Call for proposals to be published in early
2007
• ERC Advanced Investigator Researcher Grant scheme (ERC Advanced Grant)– Call for proposals at a later stage in 2007

European Strategic Forum for Research Infrastructures (ESFRI)
• ESFRI - launched in April 2002. It brings together representatives of EU Member States and Associated States, appointed by Ministers in charge of Research, and one representative of the European Commission.
• The role of ESFRI is to support a coherent approach to policy-making on research infrastructures in Europe, and to act as an incubator for international negotiations about concrete initiatives.
ESFRI – Roadmap of research infrastructures (EUROHORCS/EC)
