National RI roadmap in place *
Purpose of national RI roadmap-ping/ decision-making process for RI
Identification of scientific needs and existing gaps responding to the changing R&D and socio-economic demands
(Bottom-up) list of the scientific user community on desired RI
Inventory of existing RI
Tool supporting and monitoring RI implementation
Guide with strategic RI priorities for setting research policy priorities
An input for funding decisions on RI between institutional, regional and national stakeholders
A list to achieve agreement on the RI with institutional, regional and national stakeholders
A list of strategic priorities, which are foreseen for funding
A tool to differentiate between institutional and regional RI versus RI of (more than) national relevance

9. Challenges in National RI Roadmapping
Diverging interests
Politics: Political and societal goals on regional and national level; imperatives linked to regional, national and international competitiveness; need for strategic intelligence
Research: Various forms of self-organisation and strategic prioritisation; international competition
Public funding: Use of public funds (complexity of RI funding; high cost; long-term vs. flexibility)
Paradigm shifts in STI policy
Expectations beyond economic growth and international competitiveness (e.g. social impact)
Internationalisation: Increasing Internationalisation of science policies and research
Accountability: Increasing legitimation needs, RI business case, ex-ante/-post assessments
Unclear decision-making
Step-by-step: Decision-making developed historically  muddling through
Lack of transparency: Process and criteria not always transparent
Lack of strategy: Decision-making often opportunity driven

10. Good practices for RI roadmaps?
RI roadmapping may support a competitive and sustainable RI landscape, if it
is embedded in overall R&I strategies at national/European level
is based on harmonised definitions and methodologies
addresses specific needs of all scientific fields
includes business plans addressing the whole life cycle of RI
is aligned with longterm specific RI-funding – at national/European level
allows stakeholders to impact the process at the appropriate stage
reaches out beyond Europe
But the process is a result of the national system, including it's research and education system, laws and responsibilites of actors
