2. Preliminary Considerations
• Brasil e UE political and economic context in 2007
– 2010 and today
• S&T Investiments in Brazil
• Brazil – need for more participation and exposure
in the international scene
• FP-6 (<2007), FP-7 (2007-2013), Horizon 2020
(2014-2020) programs – some remarkable
caracteristics and opening to third countries
• Importance of International Cooperation

3. Historical Account of Brazil
participation in FP-7 in the ICT area
• 2004 – 19 jan – EU – Brazil Agreement of S&T
Cooperation; aproved by Brazilian National
Congress on 22/11/2006;
• 2007 – 10 mai – Presidential Decree
forwarding Agreement
• 2007 – 7 ago – put in force for a 5 year
period.

4. Principles of the Agreement
(a) Mutual benefit based on an overall balance
of advantages;
(b) Reciprocal Access to the activities of RTD
undertaken by each party;
(c) Timely exchange of information which may
affect cooperative activities;
(d) Appropriate protection of IPR .

5. THEMATIC AREAS
The Agreement highlights 12 technology oriented thematic areas:
- biotechnology ;
- information and communication technology ;
- bioinformatics;
- space;
- micro- and e nanotechnologies;
- materials research;
- clean technologies;
- management and sustainable use of environmental resources;
- biosafety;
- health and medicine;
- aeronautics;
- metrology, standardisation and conformity assessment ;
+ human sciences.

6. Main areas of work were:
• ICT
• Biotechnology
• Climate and environment changes
• Food
• Agriculture

7. COORDINATED CALLS (BILATERAL) – FP-7
it happened only for ICT and biofuels
1 for biofuels – in 2008: 2 projects – €4Mill
2 for ICT – in 2010 : 5 projects – €5Mill
and in 2012
The first calls in ICT and biofuels had very positive
assessment

8. • Firstly (2007) MRE advocates begining the
Accord with biofuels alone.
• Minister Sérgio Rezende demands
participation of ICT and assigns SEPIN to
coordinate this action.
• A. Gadelha, Marylin Peixoto, Antenor e
Michael Stanton goes to meet ISTAG in
Brussels, in June 2009, to show capacity of
Brazil to participate in FP-7 in the ICT area.
ISTAG - Information Society Technologies Advisory Group
FIRST COORDINATED CALL FOR ICT - 2010

9. • Workshop na USP/São Paulo in September
2009 – definition of areas for the first
Coordinated Call in FP-7, with great
participation of researchers from Brazil and
EU.
4 areas defined: Future of Internet;
Microeletronics and Micro-Systems; Embedded
Systems; E-Infrastructures
(EU wished to focus only on IoT)

20. “In the latest TOP500 rankings, the number of supercomputers that reached a Linpack petaflop or more grew
to 95 systems – nearly a fifth of the list. The number of such systems has been growing steadily since IBM’s
Roadrunner broke the petaflop barrier in 2008. And while machines of this magnitude are still considered elite,
hardly a month goes by now without a new system or two being deployed.”
