Three priorities • Excellent science • Industrial leadership • Societal challenges
Priority 1. Excellent science • Why: • World class science is the foundation of tomorrow’s technologies, jobs and wellbeing • Europe needs to develop, attract and retain research talent • Researchers need access to the best infrastructures
Priority 2. Industrial leadership • Why: • Europe needs to attract more private investment in research and innovation • Europe needs more innovative small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to create growth and jobs
Priority 3. Societal challenges • Why: • Concerns of citizens and society/EU policy objectives (climate, environment, energy, transport, etc) cannot be achieved without innovation
