JTI – Joint Technology Initiatives

Strengthen Europe’s position as technologically innovative economy

Support trans-national co-operation in fields of key importance for industrial research

Respond to industry needs

Build on European Technology Platforms (ETPs)

EIT rationale Long-term existing ecosystem operational in all the fields of education, research and innovation in a mid-long term European perspective (10-15 yr) with strong emphasis on economic and social outcomes Address education as an integral component of a comprehensive research and innovation strategy, thus actively contributing to reinforcing Europe’s technological know-how and competence base A vehicle able to coordinate and bridge between European initiatives being limited in time and/or not considering all dimensions of the knowledge triangle In addition to already existing instruments and initiatives an EIT would bring Address Europe’s shortcomings and contribute to a sustainable economic growth and competitiveness Education Exploitation gap Academic fragmentation R&D Outflows Brain drain Funding gap Mobility gap Lack of excellence Innovation gap Research Innovation
