Focus areas A small number of missions cut across the programme boundaries are implemented as focus areas. Each of these aligns with major political or policy drivers, and will be endowed with a substantial budget to allow for work of sufficient scale, depth and breadth. Focus areas are expected to create an exceptional impact, addressing ‘big ticket’ challenges. This focus area approach has been developed in the light of experience from previous Horizon 2020 work programmes, is simpler and has the potential for achieving greater impact.

Focus areas are selected using criteria including:

degree of fit with politically derived drivers;

European added value, with convincing description of expected impact;

potential for engagement of the stakeholder community (co-creation with users; support digital entrepreneurship);

integration across the work programme;

achieving integration of cross-cutting objectives, including coverage of the innovation chain.
