EU Research Frameworks

EU research funding and facilitation so far Framework Programmes coordinated EU funding on research

since 1980s FP7 concludes in December 2013 SMEs participated in different programmes Transnational actions boosted

Mind-set shift to Horizon 2020 Aims at bridging the research to innovation gap

(e.g. pilot projects) Fosters industry’s participation Gathers scattered programmes to one

The European Engineering Industries Association

Horizon 2020

Horizon 2020 (€70 billion) To be implemented in 2014-2020 Three pillars: Societal Challenges €30.956 million

Industrial Leadership €17.015 million

Excellence in Science € 24.341 million

Funding Rates 100% reimbursement for eligible costs with broader acceptance

of usual accounting practices 70% ceiling for actions closer to the market (prototyping, testing) 25% flat rate of total direct eligible costs to cover indirect costs One project = One rate

Basic principles observed

The European Engineering Industries Association

Public Private PartnershipsRecovery Plan PPPS in Horizon 2020 Factories of the Future, Energy-Efficient Buildings, European Green Cars Increased funding in industrial areas that it was falling FoF PPP: 59% industrial participation

Overall change in mind-set of innovation funding

PPPs multiplying in future New PPPs on process industries, robotics, photonics,

biotech and high performance computing In 2017 PPPs for materials for renewables, railways and

the maritime industry.

How to grasp upcoming opportunities

Address national authorities National Horizon Contact Point for Hungary Authority responsible for Smart Specialisation

Work in networks Different consortia bring actors together for common projects Cooperate with larger companies, already experienced in funding Cooperate with Research and Technology Organisations

Cooperate locally Smart specialisation and COSME foster clusters

Cooperate in Europe Use the Orgalime and other networks to meet prospective partners
