10 Research & Innovation Where we are going: R&I in Horizon 2020 (2014-2020)

11 Research & Innovation What’s new in R&I? Commission proposal for a 80 billion euro research and innovation funding programme (2014-2020) 70.2 billion agreed – but R&I only spending area to increase significantly A single programme bringing together three separate programmes/initiatives* Coupling research to innovation – from research to retail, all forms of innovation Focus on societal challenges facing EU society, e.g. health, clean energy and transport Simplified access, for all companies, universities, institutes in all EU countries and beyond *The 7th Research Framework Programme (FP7), innovation aspects of Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme (CIP), EU contribution to the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT)

12 Research & Innovation Excellent science Industrial leadership Societal challenges Action lines: Spreading Excellence and Widening Participation Science with and for Society A single programme 3 main pillars Coupling research to innovation Focus on societal challenges Simplified & broader access Horizon 2020 – in a nutshell

13 Research & Innovation 13 Horizon 2020: Last budget agreement Health is one of the "Societal Challenges"

14 Research & Innovation Priority 1 - Excellent science Why: World class science is the foundation of tomorrow’s technologies, jobs and wellbeing Europe needs to develop, attract and retain research talent Researchers need access to the best infrastructures

15 Research & Innovation European Research Council (ERC) Frontier research by the best individual teams13 095 Future and Emerging Technologies Collaborative research to open new fields of innovation 2 696 Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions (MSCA) Opportunities for training and career development6 162 Research infrastructures (including e-infrastructure) Ensuring access to world-class facilities2 488 Proposed funding (€ million, 2014-2020)

16 Research & Innovation Priority 2 - Industrial leadership Why: Strategic investments in key technologies (e.g. advanced manufacturing, micro-electronics) underpin innovation across existing and emerging sectors Europe needs to attract more private investment in research and innovation Europe needs more innovative small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to create growth and jobs

17 Research & Innovation Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies (LEITs) (ICT, nanotechnologies, materials, biotechnology, manufacturing, space) 13 557 Access to risk finance Leveraging private finance and venture capital for research and innovation 2 842 Innovation in SMEs Fostering all forms of innovation in all types of SMEs 616 + complemented by expected 20% of budget of societal challenges + LEITs and 'Access to risk finance' with strong SME focus Proposed funding (€ million, 2014-2020)

18 Research & Innovation Horizon 2020 pillars

19 Research & Innovation Strong participation by SMEs Integrated approach Simplification of particular benefit to SMEs (e.g. single entry point) A new SME instrument, building on the SBIR model, will be used across all societal challenges 'Access to risk finance' will have a strong SME focus (debt and equity facility)

20 Research & Innovation Special support for SMEs in Horizon 2020 ~5 billion EUR in H2020 Inspired by the US model "SBIR" Challenge driven, bottom up A single company can be funded 3 phases / 3 entry points: Concept and feasibility assessment R&D, demonstration, market replication Commercialization

21 Research & Innovation Conditions for participation Collaborative research projects require at least three legal entities from different EU Member States or Associated Countries Activities requiring at least one legal entity European Research Council, Training & mobility actions SME instrument, Programme co-fund Coordination & support actions Calls for proposals open to organizations from countries outside Member States and Associated Countries. See http://ec.europa.eu/research/horizon2020/pdf/press/fact_sheet_on_international_participation_in_horizon_2 020.pdf http://ec.europa.eu/research/horizon2020/pdf/press/fact_sheet_on_international_participation_in_horizon_2 020.pdf

22 Research & Innovation Some key elements Simplified funding model  Up to 100% of the eligible costs  Limited to 70% for innovation projects Shorter time-to-grant (capped at 8 months) Single entry point for applicants New forms of funding aimed at innovation (pre-commercial procurement, inducement prizes, dedicated loan and equity instruments)

23 Research & Innovation Health R&I in Horizon 2020

24 Research & Innovation Understanding health, wellbeing and disease Preventing disease Treating and managing disease Active ageing and self- management of health Methods and data Health care provision and integrated care Health, Demographic change and wellbeing Unravelling the complexity of health and disease Towards personalised, safe and more effective health interventions Advancing active and healthy ageing Improving health information, data exploitation and providing an evidence base for health policies and regulation Integrated, sustainable, citizen centred care

25 Research & Innovation In the pipeline: Innovative Medicines Initiative 2 Mission: create an even more powerful research and innovation machine – with broader objectives and a wider range of activities and partners Proposed budget from public and private partners: 3.5 Billion Euro Key objectives: Pave the way for the breakthrough vaccines, medicines and treatments needed in the near future Enable top quality research and innovations with great public health benefits and commercial possibilities

26 Research & Innovation In the pipeline: EDCTP2 EDCTP2 launch in early 2014 expected with: a) Larger scope (including neglected infectious diseases, all clinical phases, diagnostics and delivery optimisation) b) Bigger budget c) Longer duration 16 European countries have committed to spend almost €600 million on EDCTP2 EU will provide matching co-funding through its Horizon 2020 programme

27 Research & Innovation The H2020 Work Programme: Principles In general, not disease-specific, meaning wider research opportunities for all diseases Broader areas with less prescription A challenge-based approach: More inter-disciplinarity Opportunities in various Programs: diabetes research may also feature under "Food", or "Nanotechnologies", or "Advanced materials" etc. User friendly with renewed web tools allowing SEARCH throughout H2020 Single work programme for Horizon 2020 (except ERC, JRC, EIT) 2 years+1 planning structure with budget information included

28 Research & Innovation Evaluation of proposals Collaborative research  Excellence  Impact  Quality and efficiency of the action European Research Council  Excellence

29 Research & Innovation Priority 3 – "Societal challenges" Why: Concerns of citizens and society/EU policy objectives (climate, environment, energy, transport, etc.) cannot be achieved without innovation Breakthrough solutions come from multi-disciplinary collaborations, including social sciences & humanities Promising solutions need to be tested, demonstrated and scaled up

30 Research & Innovation Proposed funding for the Health, demographic changes and well-being - (€ million, 2014-2020)  Additional funding for nuclear safety and security from the Euratom Treaty activities (2014-2018) Health, demographic change and wellbeing7 472 Food security, sustainable agriculture, marine and maritime research & the Bioeconomy 3 851 Secure, clean and efficient energy *5 931 Smart, green and integrated transport6 339 Climate action, resource efficiency and raw materials3 081 Inclusive and reflective societies1 309 Secure societies1 695 Science with and for society462 Spreading excellence and widening participation816
