Construction in Europe - Key Figures(source : FIEC www.fiec.org annual report 2007)
Estimated construction investment (EU 27 - 2006) : 1196 billion € 10,4 % of EU GDP 50,5 % of Gross fixed Capital Formation
2,7 million enterprises, of which 95% are SMEs with fewer than 20 and 93% with fewer than 10 operatives 15,2 million operatives7,2 % of Europe`s total employment 30,4 % of industrial employment 26 million workers in the EU depend, directly or indirectly, on the construction sectorBiggest industrial employer in Europe
Construction provides and maintains the built facilities and infrastructures required for European Economies to function effectively, including buildings and facilities for the delivery of public services. In doing so it accounts for up to 10% of the EU GDP. The sector therefore has a profound influence on European Competitiveness if its processes are efficient and reliable overall economic competitiveness will increase.
ERA CONSTRUCTIONERA CONSTRUCTION
Joining forces to establish the European Research Area (ERA) and to step up the co-ordination of research activities carried out at National and European level.
Enhancing co-ordination of national and European research programmes and policies, overcoming fragmentation, and creating an “internal market” for research it constitutes one of the central axes of the ERA concept.
The ERA has become a key component of the Lisbon Strategy for transforming Europe into the world’s most competitive and sustainable knowledge-based economy
Since 2004, the ECTP has been contributed successful by :

Accelerate the developments of new large scale markets with great international potential. Better anticipate necessary legal and regulatory changes and use existing policy mechanisms in a more targeted and consistent manner. Design and implement such a concerted action in a small set of “pilot” markets

Continuing to Implement ERA in FP7 , in NMP, other Themes and in other programmes, consolidate the PPP in JTI/E2B in 2008, ERANET+
Better understanding expectations of Member States , Society, Industry & Clients & Users
Contribute to the overall EU Policies (Climate Change, Green Procurement, ...)
Helping to shape Work Programme revisions and increasing synergies with ECTP & ETPs SRA
Identify the potential need/possibilities for increased cooperation (Including International)
Learn about expectations/plans for future activities, in particular after the end of current projects
