Access to digital technologiesMainstreaming digital innovation

Provide access to digital technologies and expertise

• within "working distance" for any industry in Europe

• with a focus on: SMEs, mid-caps, non-tech

• provide industry with access to technology, expertise, testing,.. based on world-class specialised competence centre

Regions/Member States• Establish/reinforce competence centres

• Across Europe – specific support for regions without DIH

• Implement relevant activities if needed (incentives, …)

• Collaborate with digital innovation hubs of other regions

• to fill gaps and facilitate specialisation and excellence

Commission:• Support pan-European networking of Digital Innovation Hubs

• Share best practices, success stories, training

• Develop catalogue of Hubs, competences, etc

• Promote use of EU and other funds (ESIF – European Structural & Investment Fund, EFSI –European Fund for Strategic Investment)

Industry• Engage with competence centres, help set priorities,..

Public Private Partnerships

Platforms What are we talking about?

� Not only:

• Stakeholder groups = Plattform Industrie 4.0, European Technology Platforms (ETPs)

• Technological platforms = middleware, reference architectures, toolboxes, …

� More comprehensive:

• Economical definition: Multi-sided market gateways creating value by enabling interactions between two or more complementary customer groups

• Innovation definition: Reference architecture/implementation with an innovation ecosystem triggering broad value creation

• Examples (not so good): On-line Platforms with proprietary kernels

• Google: People who search - advertisers

• Apple/Android: People who buy a phone - developers of apps

• Amazon Marketplace: People who search a product - companies selling products

• Examples (better): Open Industrial Platforms => collaborate on integration – compete on components and functionality

• AUTOSAR: Standardized architecture for embedded automotive SW and HW easing cooperationbetween car manufacturers, suppliers and IT developers

• ISOBUS: communication/data exchange between tractors, land machines, mobility and control SW emerging ecosystem of agricultural OEMs, suppliers, seed companies, IT/big data companies

• CRYSTAL: ARTEMIS/ECSEL supported platform for safety-critical systems building on on EU leadership on safety-/time-critical systems, cutting across rail, automotive, aerospace, health sector, involving several groups of market actors across the value chains

https://www.autosar.org/

Standardized architecture for embedded automotive HW/SW� Eases cooperation of car manufacturers,

suppliers and tool developers � Facilitates innovation through open

standards� "Cooperate on standards, compete on

implementation"

Similar platform in agricultural machinery: ISOBUS • emerging ecosystem of agricultural OEMs, suppliers, seed companies, IT/big data• standardise communication/data exchange between tractors, land machines, mobility and control SW• compete on components and their functionality.

Challenges for AUTOSAR� Connected Car� Autonomous Car� Fully electric vehicle

Success story� Bootstrapped by EU industry

DIGITISING EUROPEAN INDUSTRYEuropean Cloud Initiative

Data as a key driver of Open Science and the 4th industrial revolution

• But data remains underexploited and Europe is lagging behind in terms of data infrastructures and technologies

The EU Cloud initiative

• An Open Science Cloud for storage, management, analysis and re-use of research data across borders and scientific disciplines

• A trusted and world-class Data Infrastructure including HPC accessed via the Cloud

• Widening access and building trust by opening the infrastructure to industry (SMEs) and public sector (e.g. smart cities).

Data as a key driver of Open Science and the 4th industrial revolution

• But data remains underexploited and Europe is lagging behind in terms of data infrastructures and technologies

For being attractive for the private sectorcentres must fulfil

industrial requirements!

Günther H. Oettinger, Commissioner for the Digital Economy and Society:

"our ambition is to be in the global top three in high performance computing by 2020"

creating a European Open Science Cloud

opening up by default all scientific data

launching a flagship-type initiative on quantum technology

developing and deploying a large scale European high performance computing, data storage and network infrastructure

- Digital innovation capacity and platforms

- Digital skills

- ICT Standardisation

- Regulatory issues

DIGITISING EUROPEAN INDUSTRYSummary

The European Commission will:

Help coordinate national and regional initiatives on digitising industry by maintaining a continuous EU-wide dialogue with all actors involved. A governance framework will be set up with Member States and industry.

Focus investments in EU's public-private partnerships and strongly encourage the use of the opportunities offered by the EU Investment Plan and ESIF -European Structural and Investment Funds.

Invest €500 million in a pan-EU network of digital innovation hubs (centres of excellence in technology) where businesses can obtain advice and test digital innovations.

Set up large-scale pilot projects to strengthen internet of things, advanced manufacturing and technologies in smart cities and homes, connected cars or mobile health services.

Adopt future-proof legislation that will support the free flow of data and clarify ownership of data generated by sensors and smart devices. The Commission will also review rules on safety and liability of autonomous systems.

Present an EU skills agenda that will help give people the skills needed for jobs in the digital age.
