Facilities, resources or services of a unique nature identified by European research commu-nities to conduct top-level research activities and foster innovation in their fields
Where relevant, they may be used beyond research, e.g. for education or public services
Single-sited, virtual, mobile or distributed
Major scientific equipment (or sets of instruments)
Knowledge-based resources (collections, archives or scientific data)
e-Infrastructures (data and computing systems; communication networks)
Any other infrastructure of a unique nature essential to achieve excellence in research and innovation
ESFRI identifies RIs of pan-European interest meeting the long-term needs of Europe’s research communities across all scientific areas
TTO CIRCLE Network Workshop | Gothenburg | 30 Nov.-01 Dec. 2017 4
RIs contribute to making Europe 2020 Strategy and its Innovation Union Flagship Initiative a reality
RIs should increase their socio-economic and societal impact:
Contribute to realise the potential of the regions
Identify and promote their innovation and industrial capabilities
Continue their opening to, and partnership with, industrial researchers and industry / services to help to address societal challenges and to support EU competitiveness
Identify the specific requirements for hosting industry users
Increase their international cooperation
Full exploitation of the RIs’ potential as innovation hubs does strengthen their Long-Term Sustainability
RIs are a key instrument in bringing together researchers, funding agencies, policy makers and industry to act together

RIs are privileged places where research meets innovation & industry (in the form of industrial applications, technologies and business): - they bring together highly skilled scientists, engineers,
technicians and managers, funding agencies, public authorities, policy decision-makers and industry (including SMEs);
- they are characterised by their scientific and technical multi- and cross-disciplinarity and a mix of a very broad range of interactions with their economic and societal surrounding environments
RIs provide a critical mass of instrumentation available or the capability to develop new one and are able, under certain conditions, to mobilise rapidly (with very short delays) their capacities in order to find solutions to the industrial demand
RIs(*) in the innovation chain (1)
(*) Not only the ESFRI RIs !
TTO CIRCLE Network Workshop | Gothenburg | 30 Nov.-01 Dec. 2017 7
RIs are major drivers of (industrial) innovation: - in their construction and major upgrade phases
(design, engineering, commissioning), with high opportunities for TT, as sources of (pre-) commercial procurements and purchasers of new high-tech components, instruments and related services;
- in their operation phases, as facilities serving industrial research and innovation, offering opportunities to remove technological barriers leading to further innovation and to generate KT
RIs serve S&T but also policy-making and society. Most of the ESFRI RIs in the Environmental, Health and Food and SSH sectors were built for their mixed scientific, social and societal impact, providing new knowledge, data and services to increase the security, well-being and prosperity of a society faced with a series of Grand Challenges
RIs in the innovation chain (2)
Industry as a supplier
Industry as a user
TTO CIRCLE Network Workshop | Gothenburg | 30 Nov.-01 Dec. 2017 8
RIs can offer industrial companies to be immersed in active ecosystems of innovation based on their complementary broad range of competences and skills: - they are most often located in S&T areas (scientific campuses,
technology parks, etc.) that include a wide variety of state of the art enabling technologies and support services (and often several RIs, e.g. as in Hamburg, Lund, Grenoble, Didcot, etc.)
- such an environment enables the creation of a unique ecosystem around RIs well suited for innovation where research teams, standards and metrology services, small high-tech enterprises, spin-off and start-up companies, detached labs of big companies, TTOs and ILOs staffs all together can exploit the "business at walking distance" advantage in working together on common issues in the same place (co-creation)
RIs in the innovation chain (3)
Industry as a partner
TTO CIRCLE Network Workshop | Gothenburg | 30 Nov.-01 Dec. 2017 9
Diversity of forms of RI-Industry interactions
New knowledge production and dissemination: Publications | Access to data and tools for accessing them | Outreach
Access to infrastructures, including provision of specialist service and expertise: with appropriate access and charging mechanisms
Training and human resources development: Knowledge Transfer | Staff mobility
Contribution to economic activities: Design and co-design of instrumentation and equipment, incl. innovative public procurement (mainly for construction/upgrade) Joint research projects (with dedicated funding and interface) Contract R&D, incl. testing (provision of specialist services) Licensing of IP Spin-off creation, business incubation and acceleration services
RIs in the innovation chain (4)
Interactions between RIs and their surrounding techno-scientific, socio-economic and societal environment
TTO CIRCLE Network Workshop | Gothenburg | 30 Nov.-01 Dec. 2017 11
Improving the relations between RIs and Industry and promoting the potential for innovation of RIs in all its aspects | Main recommendations related to “Industry as a user”
Awareness raising on industrial access and services: dissemination and stimulation actions should be carried out in close connection with sectorial industrial organisations and RTOs, with EU support
Installation of Industrial Liaison Officers / Industry Advisory Boards
Innovation Working Group (2016)
Provide companies (including SMEs) with new/more extended room near RIs dedicated to pre-competi-tive research programmes, where the possibility to exploit the RIs technological resources is more effective and where scientists and engineers can work together in the same place on common objectives (open innovation and co-creation)
Quality Chart on access | Remote control access and virtual use | Specific support and services dedicated to industry
Programme-based access Dedicated funding streams for KT and TT,
training and mobility Industry- and innovation-friendly data
policies | Transparent and efficient IPR policies | Appropriate managerial tools
Promotion of local innovation ecosystems
TTO CIRCLE Network Workshop | Gothenburg | 30 Nov.-01 Dec. 2017 12
Current practices in industrial access Proportion of total access to the RI
Basic science: from 5% to 85% (100% for purely basic science facilities) Innovation related (involving industrial/civil services): from 10% to 100% (0% for purely basic science facilities). Analytical facilities: up to 30-40%; Health: up to 100%; SSH: up to 20%; Nuclear Energy: up to 70%
Access to the RI Excellence-driven (incl. industrial collaborative research with academic teams): from 80 to 100%. It includes “hidden" market-driven access (analytical facilities and nuclear energy: up to 30%; health: up to 25%) Market-driven "proprietary research" (i.e. purely commercial access): from 0 to 35%. Analytical facilities: up to 3-4%, health: up to 20%; nuclear energy: up to 35%
Access charging in place for industry Excellence-driven collaborative research: - free access for pre-competitive research; - institutions / industry may contribute (in kind) in return for share of novel IPR (e.g. EATRIS); - not for profit rates in the framework of specific agreements (e.g. agreement with a JTI); - PPPs for access in the framework of research programmes (e.g. ESRF+ILL) Proprietary research: full actual cost and industry keeps all IPRs
