Starting point

Achievements from EurekaBuild 1 in terms of Network Project ideas Projects running

ECTP SRA and IAP EurekaBuild should still be a supplementary instrument to fulfil the

objectives of ECTP, and thus a part of the ECTP organisation

The EurekaBuild Action Plan from May 2006 Will still be valid for most items, and can be used as a basis

The new Eureka Umbrella guidelines Need to be implemented in the new action plan

The NTPs network Should still be a backbone for the initiative


Decisions to be made

Chair The Spanish NTP has offered to chair the new EurekaBuild 2 initiative,

and provide funding for the chair and support office

Commitment of member states EUREKA member states must decide on their continued commitment to

EurekaBuild2 – at least 5 member states will be needed in order to re-launch the Umbrella

According to the new Umbrella guidelines a stronger NPC commitment will be needed also regarding financial issues

Secretariat Hosting and running the secretariat and support office – with ECTP, with

the Chair or other alternatives

Management and WP structure Overall structure for decision-making and running of the Umbrella Work packages and responsibilities


Actions to be taken

Establish the new structureDefine responsibilitiesSecure the commitment from partners and their NPCsSecure the funding

Prepare the new Work PlanMeeting of new SC, at/with ESE in early 2010Write and adopt the work planFile the application form

Set up the new secretariat and support office Define roles and have the new TC and WP leaders up

and running
