The EU Framework Programme for Research an Innova 2014-2020

The basics 1: what is Horizon 2020

A core part of Europe 2020, Innovation Union & European Research Area:

Responding to the economic crisis to invest in future jobs and growth

Addressing people’s concerns about their livelihoods, safety and environment

Strengthening the EU’s global position in research, innovation and technology

Commission proposal for a 80 billion euro research and innovation funding programme (2014-2020)

2013-09-16 Bild 12

A single programme bringing together three separate programmes/initiatives*

Coupling research to innovation – from research to retail, all forms of innovation

Focus on societal challenges facing EU society, e.g. health, clean energy and transport

Simplified access, for all companies, universities, institutes in all EU countries and beyond.

The H2020 Work Programme Principles “There can be only one”

• One single work programme to underline the integration and seamlessness of Horizon 2020*

Cover two years with all details, including budget In order to mirror the Strategic Programme, tentative information for the

third year; Readily accessible to users and newcomers. Web tools will be used to

enhance the user-experience; The objective is to have sub-challenge topics and to avoid shopping lists

of prescriptive topics; * With the exception of the ERC and the actions by the JRC and the EIT.

Slide 34

The H2020 Work Programme Content I The focus areas: The focus areas should stand out. The general principle should be that a

focus area has a dedicated call, which describes a substantial set of implementation actions.

Importantly, all challenges and enabling technologies should contribute to those focus areas that are relevant.

A consistent approach is to be applied for the development of the focus areas through a common check list to be developed, making sure all key elements are covered, including:

• Identifying a portfolio of actions across the innovation chain;

• Incorporating different perspectives (e.g. gender, SSH, international, cooperation);

• Complementing other partnership initiatives in the area.

Slide 35

The H2020 Work Programme Content II All parts, including focus areas:

As a general principle, topic descriptions should be drafted in the form of sub-challenges, particularly under the societal challenges, to allow flexibility on the side of the applicants

Descriptions should include statements outlining the expected impact, to be referenced during the evaluation process;

Conditions on the content of the proposed work, consortium make-up, length of project, etc. should be kept to a minimum;

Topics should integrate key horizontal issues like, for instance, gender aspects, social-economic sciences and humanities etc.

Pre-commercial procurement (PCP) and public procurement of innovative solutions (PPI)

• Societal Challenges: explicit references to support for procurement of research and innovation

• Industrial Leadership: support to PCP and PPI highlighted as essential aspects in addressing competitiveness

• SME instrument: follow-up support in phase 3 through services such as help to SMEs in accessing opportunities for public procurement of innovation

• Support to PCP by research infrastructure actors to drive forward innovation and act as early adopters of technologies

Prizes Beyond traditional interventions to include a wider range of actors: Easy and broad access for contestants with lower administrative barrier

(simplification for the beneficiaries and the administration);

Result-driven: pay only for results;

Leverage effect: prizes stimulate private sector investment that is 10 or even 20 times greater than the cash value of the prize*

Public relations: attracting interest and attention to a specific issue of

social concern

Commercialisation: prizes identify and publicise innovations, engaging investors and innovators to take new solutions to market

Simplifications?

Regler för deltagande: ett projekt – en finansieringsmodell

Arbetet med att skriva ansökningar blir mindre tidskrävande,

Antalet felaktiga redovisningar av indirekta kostnader försvinner,

Validering av vilken typ av deltagare som ingår i forskningsprojekten behövs ej,

Tiden mellan ansökan och besked om beviljande respektive utbetalning förkortas,

Det krävs mindre omfattande efterkontroller.
