Future and Emerging Technologies Flagships areTechnologies Flagships are…

…ambitious large-scale, science-driven, visionary research initiatives that aim to achieve a scientific breakthrough, envisioned to run for at least 10 years, with a budget

of up to 100 M€ per year per initiativeof up to 100 M€ per year, per initiative.

The scientific advance should provide a strong and broad basis for future technological innovation and economic exploitation in a variety of areas, as well as novel benefits

Flagship-like Examples: • Large Hadron Collider

for society.

g• Human Genome Project• Man on the Moon Challenge (Apollo
