Work-in-Progress

ICT in Horizon 2020 The European Framework Program

for Research and Innovation (2014 - 2020)

Iddo Bante 22-08-2013

For the EC, R&D&I is only a tool

Investment in R&D is part of the solution

to exit from the economic crises

• Originally: A Commission proposal of €80 billion for 2014-2020

bringing together 3 separate programs (RFP, CIP, EIT)

Key challenge: stabilise the financial and

economic system while taking measures to create economic opportunities

• Now: A guarantee of a budget ≈ €70.2 billion

Official publication first WPs: 11 December 2013 (not sure yet)

• Core part of Europe 2020, Innovation Union & European Research Area to:

Tackle the economic crises investing in growth and future jobs;

Address people’s concerns about their standard of living, safety

and environment;

Strengthen the Europe’s global position in research, innovation

and technology.

What is Horizon 2020?

A single program Bringing together 3 separate programs:

• 7th Framework Program (FP7)

• Competitiveness & Innovation

Framework Program (CIP)

• EU contribution to the EIT

Coupling research to innovation • Much more emphasis on innovation

Horizon 2020 goes beyond research and facilitates the step

from research to innovation;

Whole chain: from (fundamental) research to market;

All forms of innovation: new products & services, non-commercial

social innovation (e.g. better public services or adressing societal

needs), pilots, public procurement, standard setting)

• More involvement of industry via industrial deployment of key enabling

technologies (KETs) and through PPPs (institutional and contractual);

What’s new?

Focus on societal challenges No prescription of the specific research topics to be addressed, but a description of

societal challenges to be solved in areas such as health, food safety, energy, transport.

Simplified access / No negotiation phase Less time for administrative procedures

effect on processes at UT

Funding: Direct cost (100% or 70%) + 25%

No full-cost!

Open access to research data Data management plan:

access to data (also others), data storage during and after project, …

Proposal for reduction of EC costs in 2014

effect on Horizon 2020:

10.2 b€ in 2013 but only 8.8 b€ in 2014 (-13.6%)

Enabling and Industrial Technologies

Common approach to Enabling and Industrial Technologies: - ICT (incl. 2 KETs: micro- and nano-electronics, photonics)

- Nanotechnologies, Advanced Materials, Advanced Manufacturing

- Biotechnology

- Space

Innovation: Emphasis on technology development, industrial-scale pilots and demonstrators,

prototyping and validation

KETs: Specific support for ‘multi-KETs’ / ‘cross-KETs’

Public-Private-Partnerships: Important role of PPPs to implement KET-related activities - To solve problems together with industry

- To strengthen European leadership

- To facilitate prioritisation of R&I in line with Europe 2020 objectives and industry needs

- To leverage research and innovation elements

- To strongly commit industry to joint objectives

Note: EIPs (European Innovation Partnerships) are not funding instruments, but for coordination with broader policies and programs.


PPPs in Horizon 2020 proposal

PPPs to implement R&I activities of stratregic importance:

Continuation of existing JTIs/JUs

1. Embedded Computing Systems (ARTEMIS) 2. Nanoelectronics (ENIAC)

3. Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) 4. Fuel Cells and Hydrogen (FCH)

5. Single European SKY ATM Research (SESAR) 6. Clean Sky

Continuation of existing ‘contractual’ PPPs: 1. Factories of the Future (FoF) 2. Energy-efficient Buildings (EeB)

3. Green Vehicles 4. Future Internet (FI-PPP)

New initiatives to consider: 1. JTI Bio-based industry 2. PPP Robotics

3. PPP Sustainable process industry (SPIRE) 4. PPP Photonics

Article 187 PPPs: Contractual PPPs: - Budget is fully earmarked - Earmarked budget is only indicative

- Greater thematic visibility - Industry proposes strategy and advises on WPs

- Higher ownership of industrial partners - Implementation via ‘normal’ program

- Industry shares management costs - Comission manages the program

- No commitology - Commitology as usual under Horizon 2020

- Rules for community bodies apply - Framework Program rules for participation

- Derogations of FP rules are needed - Industry commitment via Partnership agreement

• Positioning - Excellent Science (pillar 1): FET, ERC, Marie Curie - Industrial Leadership (pillar 2): ETP’s, EIT ICT Labs - Societal Challenges (pillar 3): EIP’s, EIT ICT Labs Other type of partnerships needed (working in innovation chains). - It’s is difficult for ICT players to integrate themselves into themes initiated by sector actors, as the sectors do not understand what the ICT players can bring to endeavours. Evaluators often do not recognize the contributions ICT players can make. opportunity of ‘High-tech Human-touch’ approach of UT.
