Editor's Notes
- #4 Research and innovation have been placed at the centre of the EU budget for the programming period between 2014-20. EU leaders believe strongly that research and innovation will create the economic opportunities of tomorrow. Horizon 2020, the new programme for research and innovation has been allocated a budget of almost 80 billion euros over the next seven years. Europe, like much of the world, faces major challenges such as ageing populations and the depletion of natural resources. This affects all of our lives directly, for example through high health care costs, rising energy prices, congested roads, and threats to security. Horizon 2020 is designed to address these societal challenges through funding excellent science, technology and innovation. [It is central to the Europe 2020 strategy for smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, the Innovation Union flagship to create a knowledge society, and the goal to complete the European Research Area as a single market for knowledge.]
- #5 Horizon 2020 allows seamless funding of research and innovation, so that innovative projects can be supported from the laboratory to commercial exploitation. All forms of innovation are included, including innovation in services and social innovation. Horizon 2020 aims to include the best researchers and innovators regardless of where they are located. It is open to participation by researchers from anywhere in the world. The work programmes, identifying the research are to be funded, are published every two years. All proposals are reviewed by international , independent experts.
- #7 This first pillar includes several activities aimed at individual researchers of any nationality – offering very interesting opportunities to spend part of their research career in Europe. The European Research Council offers extremely generous and flexible grants for researchers , from anywhere in the world, to establish research groups in Europe. The grants support investigator driven, 'frontier' research in any scientific discipline and there is only one criterion; excellence. The Marie Sklodowska Curie actions support the career development and training of researchers –in all scientific disciplines, through transnational, intersectional and interdisciplinary mobility. Grants for all stages of researchers' careers are available. The MSCA will be the main EU programme for doctoral training, funding 25 000 PhDs. Funding in millions: European Research Council €13 095; Future and emerging technologies €2 696; Marie Sklodowska- Curie Actions € 6 162; Research Infrastructures €2 488
- #8 Key enabling technologies - such as advanced manufacturing, microelectronics, nanotechnology and biotechnology - underpin innovation across many industries and sectors. Innovative companies are at the heart of job creation and growth: Strategic investments in key technologies (e.g. advanced manufacturing, micro-electronics) underpin innovation across existing and emerging sectors Like every other world region, Europe wants to attract more private investment in research and innovation Like every other world region, Europe wants more innovative small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to create growth and jobs. €13 557 million will be available for research in Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies. Collaborative research proposals are invited from consortia of research organisations which may also include international partners.
- #9 This, the part of Horizon 2020 in financial terms, aims to address, major challenges concerns of citizens and society through collaborative research and innovation. For example, reducing CO2 emissions depends on new technologies and solutions for energy, transport, agriculture and the management of resources. Such challenges are shared by all countries across the globe. The challenges require a broad, multi-disciplinary approach that brings together researchers, industry, public bodies and users to create innovative solutions that will meet peoples' needs. Horizon 2020 will support not only research into new technologies and solutions, but also their piloting, demonstration and market uptake. In this way the full impact of EU funding will be achieved. Collaborative research proposals are invited from consortia of research organisations which may also include international partners. Funding: Health, demographic change and wellbeing (€ 7 472); Food security, sustainable agriculture, marine and maritime and inland waterway research and the Bioeconomy (€ 3 851); Secure, clean and efficient energy (€ 5 931); Smart, green and integrated transport (€ 6 339); Climate action, environment, resource efficiency and raw materials (€ 3 081); Inclusive, innovative and reflective societies (€ 1 310); Secure societies (€1 695)
- #10 A New International Strategy The European Commission's approach to international cooperation has been set out in a Communication in 2012 entitled "Enhancing and focusing EU international cooperation in research and innovation: a strategic approach". The general openness of Horizon 2020 to the participation of researchers from public and private organisations from across the world is part of this approach. International Cooperation is therefore mainstreamed across Horizon 2020 to tackle global challenges, promote mobility of researchers and boost the competitiveness of industries
- #11 If you are an individual researcher interested in a mobility opportunity: Apply for a Marie Sklodowska Curie or a European Research Council Grant. If you are interested in collaborative research with European partners, there are two possibilities: - Passively wait to be invited to join a consortium - Actively contact your European colleagues to discuss with them the possibility of preparing a proposal together. The Participant Portal has a service that will help you to find possible partners. Once the proposal is submitted, it will be evaluated by independentt experts considering three standard award criteria, which are: Excellence; Impact; Quality and efficiency of the action If the proposal is selected, a grant agreement will be drawn up. The time to grant will be a maximum of 8 months. This will consist of: 5 months for informing all applicants about the scientific evaluation, 3 months for the signature of the grant agreement
- #13 All relevant information on Horizon 2020 can be found online. The Participant Portal contains all the necessary documents and online manuals to help you understand Horizon 2020 and how to apply. You can always direct your questions to the National Contact Points, our NCP Network present around the world.
