2 What is Horizon 2020 Commission proposal for a 80 billion euro research and innovation funding programme ( ) - 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

3 Europe 2020 priorities Shared objectives and principles European Research Area Societal Challenges - Health, demographic change and wellbeing - Food security, sustainable agriculture, marine and maritime research, and the bioeconomy - Secure, clean and efficient energy - Smart, green and integrated transport - Climate action, resource efficiency and raw materials - Inclusive, innovative and secure societies EIT will contribute to addressing these challenges Excellence in Science - Frontier research (ERC) - Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) - Skills and career development (Marie Curie) - Research infrastructures Industrial Leadership - Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies - ICT - Nanotechnologies - Advanced materials - Biotechnologies - Advanced manufacturing and processing - Space - Access to risk finance - Innovation in SMEs Simplified access Common rules, toolkit of funding schemes Coherent with other EU and MS actions

4 Horizon 2020: What s new? Ø Ø Ø Ø A single programme bringing together FP, CIP, EIT Coupling research to innovation Simplified access for all companies, universities, Focus on three pillars: q q q Excellent science Industrial leadership Societal challenges

5 Primi commenti Programma basato su un approccio top down (eccezioni) Necessità di costituire consorzi internazionali Work Programmes, bandi, peer review Procedure amministrative Difficoltà a formare partnerships per quanti non dispongono di esperienza, vaste reti di cooperazione e solido supporto strategico

6 Primi commenti Ricerca partners: Partecipazione ad eventi, Pubblicazioni scientifiche int.li, Scambi Apertura di progetti in corso Cordis: Annunci, Progetti

7 Nuove prospettive Smart Specialisation Strategy (Fondi Strutturali) e nuove regole di gestione Progetti paralleli o congiunti con Paesi Terzi (SICAs,Targeted openings, Coordinated calls, Twinning ) Azioni bottom-up (ERC)

8 Caso Italia FP7: Utilizzo del 7/8% contro il 13% di contributo al bilancio: perdita annua di 400 M sul totale nominale di 6 MI. trend futuro 550 M. EU budget /- 140 MI

9 SSH in Horizon 2020

10 Societal challenges Health, demographic change and well being Food security, sustainable agriculture, marine and maritime research & the bio-economy Secure, clean and efficient energy (+ Euratom) Smart, green and integrated transport Climate action, resource efficiency and raw materials Inclusive, innovative and secure societies

11 SSH in Horizon 2020 (Commission) Ø Included in the Societal Challenge 'Inclusive, innovative and secure societies' Ø Integrated in all Societal Challenges Ø Supported through the 'Excellent Science' part of H2020 (ERC, Marie Curie and Infrastructures) Ø The Societal Challenges will bring together different technologies, sectors, scientific disciplines, social sciences and humanities, and innovation actors to find new solutions Ø Humanistic, cultural, artistic and fine arts perspective are included within the "Social innovation" framework

12 SSH in Challenge 6 (Commission) Ø Inclusive Societies: q Promoting smart, sustainable and inclusive growth q Building resilient and inclusive societies in Europe q Strengthening Europe's role as global actor q Closing the research and innovation divide in Europe Ø Innovative societies: q Strengthening the evidence-base and support for the IU and Era q Exploring new forms of innovation, including social innovation and creativity q Ensuring societal engagement in R&I q Promoting coherent & effective cooperation with third countries

13 SSH debate (EP and Council) Ø EP and Council: q Split Challenge 6 with an SSH-driven Challenge and a 7 th Security Challenge q Include cultural heritage in the SSH Challenge Ø Discussion on: q Mainstreaming SSH in all Horizon 2020 / "SSH horizontal box" q Keeping or not from Challenge 6 the parts concerning INCO, SiS, ERA support, inclusive ICT, CDRP and structural funds interface q Sustainability and urban issues in Challenge 6

18 Horizon 2020: Next steps Ø Ongoing: Parliament and Council negotiations on EU budget (including R&I) and Horizon 2020 Ø Currently: Final calls under FP7 (2013) to bridge the gap towards Horizon 2020 Ø Mid 2013: Adoption of legislative acts by Parliament and Council on Horizon 2020 Ø 1 January 2014: Horizon 2020 starts & launch of 1 st calls

19 Come prepararsi? Approntare strutture di supporto per l aggiornamento delle informazioni, la distribuzione ai potenziali destinatari, l assistenza nel reperimento dei partners internazionali e nell affrontare adempimenti e procedure Aprire progetti già in corso a nuovi partecipanti per avviare e consolidare consuetudini di collaborazione Familiarizzarsi con gli strumenti di cooperazione (es. valutatori )

20 Specificità delle scienze socioeconomiche Breakthrough solutions come from multidisciplinary collaborations, including social sciences & humanities
