Mission of the Research and Technology Strategy for NATO “To ensure that the Alliance has at its disposal the best scientific an technical capability, underpinned by the knowledge that member nations can make available. The ultimate goal is to prepare for the future by using science and technology to develop effective new capabilities for the Alliance”

12. Transitional Economies and Revolutionary Wealth Underdevelopment and Market Economy Deindustrialization and Demilitarization Social Polarization, Tensions and Emigration Devolution in Education and Science Security and Economic Co-operation New Knowledge Opportunities and Future Shocks

13. Old Education & Science State Controlled, Financed not Flexible System Mass Involvement, Industrial Style Education, and Science based on Isolated Centers Disciplinary based Approach Theoretical Lecturing and not Practical (Empirical) based Approach

14. Old Defence Industry Bulgarian Case State Owned, and Direct Controlled Politically and Military Dominated High Concentrated in 4 Big Corporations High Standardization, Specialization, and Synchronization State Guarantee of Quality State Financed R&D Russian Licenses, and National Technological Development Capability

15. New Defence Industry Privatized with Limited Corporative Restructuring De-concentrated in 24 Smaller Companies Market Orientated State Controlled Production & Export International Quality Certification Industrial Security State Regulation Decreased Company Financing of R&D and Education

16. Defence Policy and Army Reform NATO and EU Commitment and Strategic Resource (PPBS) and Force Planning National Ambitions to Meet New Force Goals Decrease of Defence GDP Share (2,3 %) Professional Army from 1 Jan 2008 Downsizing from 45 to 30/35 thousand and Force Restructuring Army Modernization and New Standards, ROC’s and Acquisition Projects (Air, Navy, Land Force)

23. Could we help? 1.Security related R&D Management Study will clarify the strategic context and positioning of involved countries 2.Benchmarking will show the right directions for improving R&D management, and policy 3.Development of a Scientific Network will relate national communities to the NATO R&T one 4.Education and Training of yang students, scientists and practitioners will increase the national R&D capability 5.Acceptance of new management technology and style will increase national R&D productivity. 6.The study will facilitate R&D cooperation and transfer of technologies 7.The study will identify and help to solve the critical social defence industrial problems 8.If it is a successful will build the base for development of new research projects

24. Conclusion Not Existing National Strategies for Security Related R&D Not Existing National Strategies for Defence Industry Transformation Unclear Defence Industrial Policy Dramatic Underestimation of the R&D and R&T Role for Economic Transition of the countries. The allocated national resources for R&D (civil and security) are insignificant, and not relevant to national and Alliance ultimate goals The Business is not involved and Defence Industry is isolated from the Force Planning and Modernization

25. Key message 1.New National Strategy for Defence R&D and R&T is critically necessary 2.New Policy Framework could mobilize national scientific and technical capability for NATO R&T Strategy support 3.Development of New allies' integrated Concept and Model for management of defence R&D will enforce the international R&D co-operation 4.Increase of budget and business R&D expenditures share to at least 1.5 % of GDP in short run (2010) will allow participation in co-operative project 5.Acceptance of parliamentarian approval and direct control of R&D projects, related to arms modernization plan will increase public confidence in Economy of Science
