Security Industrial policy + Horizon 2020 Secure Societies Khoen Liem Policy and Research in security DG Enterprise and Industry Helsinki, 25 March 2014i 2013

Content Industry policy for security sector FP7 - achievements Horizon - 2020 "Secure society" (Outlook for 1st SEC call H-2020) Pre Commercial Procurement European Council December 2013 2

Industrial Policy - Background The Commission announced a policy initiative for the EU security industry in the EU 2020 flagship initiative "An Industrial Policy for the Globalisation Era Putting Competitiveness and Sustainability at Centre Stage". COM(2010) 614 This lead to the dedicated Communication "Security Industrial Policy - Action Plan for an innovative and competitive Security Industry" COM(2012) 417

Communication on the Security Industrial Policy – COM(2012)417 Action Plan for an innovative and competitive Security Industry Objectives: 1. Overcoming the fragmentation of the EU security market 2. Reducing the gap from research to market 3. Better integration of the societal dimension

1. Overcoming market fragmentation Standardisation Certification/ conformity assessment procedures Synergies between security and defence technologies ("Dual-Use research")

2. Reducing the gap from research to market Aligning funding programmes, exploiting IPR routes Pre-commercial procurement (PCP) Access to international procurement markets Third party liability limitation

3. Better integration of the societal dimension Societal impact: “checking” during the R&D phase Privacy by design and privacy by default during the design phase

Security research & the 7th Framework Programme (FP7) FP7-Security (2007-2013): 1,400 Mio EUR (20% to SMEs) More than 250 projects and 2,500 participants EU funding: more than 40% of total European funding

FP7 Security budget vs. requested EC contribution

The new "Horizon–2020" Aim: securing Europe's global competitiveness by investing in science and innovation Budget: €79 000 million Duration: 2014-2020

What has changed in H-2020? Strong challenge-based approach Focus on societal challenges facing EU society Simplified list of possible actions Mainstreaming of cross-cutting issues Coupling research to innovation: from research to retail, all forms of innovation Participation is easier: - easier access - easier applications - less reporting - shorter time to grant - quicker payments - fewer audits

H-2020 Key pillars Supporting Europe's excellent science base Building industrial leadership in Europe Tackling societal challenges for a better society Secure societies

Horizon 2020 (Com. Proposal)

Security: a societal challenge It concerns the protection of citizens, society and economy as well as Europe's assets, infrastructures and services, its prosperity, political stability and well-being. Any malfunction or disruption, intentional or accidental, can have a detrimental impact with high associated economic or societal costs.

Secure Societies: does industry matter? The security industry is one of the sectors with highest potential for growth and employment in the EU. In 2011, the sector employed 180,000 people, with an annual turnover of approximately €30 billion. Overcoming market fragmentation through EU-wide standards Reducing the gap from research to market by introducing new funding schemes such as Pre-Commercial Procurement Better integration of societal considerations by thoroughly assessing the impact of security technologies on fundamental rights

Security Research Maintains its mission driven character Supports EU internal and external security policies Supports the EU industry to be competitive Strengthens the involvement of the end-users Takes more into account the Societal Dimension Includes Cyber-Security

Security Research Maintains its mission driven character Lisbon Treaty Maintains its mission driven character Supports EU internal and external security policies Supports the EU industry to be competitive Strengthens the involvement of the end-users Takes more into account the Societal Dimension Includes Cyber-Security

European Cyber Security Strategy Security Research Maintains its mission driven character Supports EU internal and external security policies Supports the EU industry to be competitive Strengthens the involvement of the end-users Takes more into account the Societal Dimension Includes Cyber-Security European Cyber Security Strategy

Cyber Security Citizens, businesses and administrations increasingly involved in digital interactions and transactions. Internet led to cyber-crime worth B€/ year, to attacks to critical infrastructures and to breaches of privacy. Lack of security of digital technologies is a risk for economy and society. Cyber security has become a political and economic priority. Eurobarometer: 50% of the EU citizens are worried (percentage increasing)

Cyber security has become part of "Secure Societies“ Challenges: - How to assess the threats in cyber-space and their possible scope? - How to best tackle cyber-threats and protect citizens in the digital domain? Convergence of traditional security needs and the digital world. Many infrastructures and services privately owned and operated, yet protection of public (safety and) security is responsibility of public authorities. Security is an issue that can only be tackled effectively if all stakeholders cooperate: companies and authorities must work together across borders.

Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) In “Security Industrial Policy-Action Plan for an innovative and competitive Security Industry” (COM(2012) 417 final) it is written : “Pre-commercial procurement (PCP) is a very useful tool in bridging the gap from research to market…..in particular in domains, where there is an institutional market or a market largely driven by legislation, given that public procurement of innovative products and services is vital for improving the quality and efficiency of public services at a time of budget constraints. Eventually, PCP should enable public users to play a more central role in the innovation cycle through the purchase of novel technologies. Procurers should act as "agents of change". The Commission intends to devote a significant part of the Secure Societies budget in Horizon 2020 on this instrument.

Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) PCP: using public-sector demand to drive development of innovative solutions from Europe’s research and private sectors. It is an additional tool that can be used to bridge the gap between research and market. PCP should enable public users to play a more central role in the innovation cycle through th purchase of novel technologies.

Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) When? Challenge requires R&D to get new solutions introduced. Problem clear, but pros/cons of several potential competing solutions not evaluated/validated yet. PCP: No commitment to deploy yet (PPI). What? Public sector contracts R&D to steer development of solutions to its needs, gather info about pros/cons of alternative solutions to be better informed to make specs for a possible PPI follow-up, to avoid supplier lock-in situation (create competitive supply base) How? Public sector buys R&D from several suppliers in parallel (comparing alternative solution approaches), in form of competition evaluating progress after critical milestones (design, prototyping, test phase), risks & benefits of R&D (e.g. IPRs) shared with suppliers to maximise incentives for wide commercialisation Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) Health Inclusion Government Security eInfrastructure

PPI - Public Procurement of Innovative Solutions When? Challenge requires solution which is almost on the market or already on the market in small quantity but not meeting public sector requirements for large scale deployment yet. No R&D involved (already done, or not needed) What? Public sector acts as launching customer / early adopter / first buyer for innovative products and services that are newly arriving on the market (not widely commercially available yet) How? Public sector acts as facilitator establishing a buyers group with critical mass that triggers industry to scale up its production chain to bring products on the market with desired quality / price ratio within a specific time. After potentially a test / certification / labelling, the buyers group buys a significant volume of solutions. Health Inclusion Government Security eInfrastructure

Price/quality products that better fit public sector needs PCP to steer the development of solutions towards concrete public sector needs, whilst comparing alternative solution approaches from various vendors PPI to act as launching customer / first buyer of innovative commercial end-solutions newly arriving on the market Public Procurement of Innovative Solutions (PPI) Applied R&D / Pre-commercial Procurement (PCP) Phase 0 Curiosity Driven Research Phase 1 Solution design Phase 2 Prototype development Phase 3 Original development of limited volume of first test products / services Phase 4 Deployment of commercial volumes of end-products Wide diffusion of newly developed solutions Supplier A Supplier B Supplier B Supplier B Supplier(s) A,B,C,D and/or X Supplier C Supplier C Third reason for why demand driven innovation through public procurement: To create growth and jobs 'in Europe' PCP-PPI combination is based on best practice to: Steer R&D to meet concrete public sector needs (earlier customer feedback helps gets better fit for purpose products, less expensive customisation needed after) Give multiple companies a chance to show what pros/cons of their ideas are (preventing supplier lock-in, get first inside knowledge of pros/cons of competing solutions to write better tender specs for PPI afterwards) Share IPR rights with industry to encourage wide commercialisation Keep competitive open market at all stages to get best value for money (short contracts per phase, no long term partnership contract locking into certain vendors) Give SMEs an equal chance to enter the procurement market (no selection criteria requesting large company turnover / long list of prior customer references, contract value / expected effort increases gradually phase per phase alongside the natural growth path of a growing company) Pool demand where possible with other procurers to share the R&D cost Because of the split between PCP and PPI: Definitely no State aid (uses maximum level of competition possible) PCP exempted from EU directives and WTO rules on procurement. Possible to restrict PCP to EU wide offers or to require R&D (jobs) to be done in Europe Supplier D Supplier D Supplier D Also normally multiple sourcing here to keep competition going Objectives: Price/quality products that better fit public sector needs Earlier customer feedback for companies developing solutions Better take-up/Wider commercialisation of R&D results

International Dimension All topics are open to international cooperation Some topics explicitly encourage international cooperation: "In line with the EU's strategy for international cooperation in research and innovation international cooperation is encouraged, and in particular with international research partners involved in on-going discussions and workshops, and US homeland security research entities. Funding for third countries is however still subject to the  evaluations." Eligibility for funding: see Art. 10.2 of the Rules for Participation

Conclusions of the European Council (19-20/12) First thematic debate on defence since the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty. Highlighted the importance of an effective Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP). Recognised that financial constraints and fragmented defence markets limit military capabilities and jeopardise the stability and competitiveness of Europe's defence and security industry. A number of priority actions were identified: Increasing the effectiveness, visibility and impact of CSDP Enhancing the development of capabilities Strengthening Europe's defence industry

European Council – Research & Dual-use "To ensure the long-term competitiveness of the European defence industry and secure the modern capabilities needed, it is essential to retain defence Research & Technology (R&T) expertise, especially in critical defence technologies." Civil and defence research reinforce each other Further dual-use research is encouraged Synergies between national and EU research should be maximised A Preparatory Action on CDSP-related research will be set up
