  1. Synergy in using FP7 and SFs for the development of Research Infrastructures Warsaw, 13 February 2006 Hervé Pero, European Commission DG Research

  2. Definition of Research Infrastructures • "Facilities", "resources" and related "services" that are needed by the scientific community for the development of leading-edge research in the most efficient manner at EU level, as well as for knowledge transmission, knowledge exchanges and knowledge preservation; • covers major equipments, collections, archives and structured information, enabling ICT-based infrastructures, and any other entity of a unique nature used for research.

  3. Research Infrastructures (RIs)and “capacity building” Multiple impacts: • (1) Knowledge generation:enabling to look beyond the frontiers of science with inter-disciplinary teams. • (2) Industrial innovation:creating direct and indirect effects (supply of high-tech instruments, spin offs). • (3) Societal impacts:contribution to knowledge society, incl. increased communication, secure data storage or data treatment capacities (cf. the WWW). • (4) Independence and governance:securing European autonomy and knowledge base.

  4. FP7 Objectives for RIs • Optimisingthe use and development of the best research infrastructures in Europe; • Helping to create in all fields of Science and Technologynew research infrastructures of pan-European interest needed by the scientific community • to help EU society (including industry) to strengthen itsbase of knowledgeand its technological know how.

  5. Making Europe and its regions a more attractive place to invest and work 2) Improving knowledge and innovation for growth increase and improve investment in RTD facilitate innovation and entrepreneurship promote the information society for all 3) More and better jobs Structural Funds: Building on the Lisbon agenda … complementary scope with FP7 !

  6. Similar calendar of SF and FP7 (2007-2013) • Autumn 05: Preparing National Strategic Reference Frameworks and FP7 proposals • 2006: Decision on Community budget • 2nd half 2006: Negotiation of new programmes – decisions on strategies & investment priorities • Jan 2007: Implementation begins

  7. SF and FP7 are complementary at the Political, scope and calendar level, but cannot be substituted The challenge: pool and organize financial ressources from different origins Structural Funds and Research Infrastructures

  8. M€ Decision point Time 20 to 50 years Research Infrastructures life-cycle Construction Upgrades and interconnections Operations Preparatory phase

  9. Stakeholders National support FP support Preparatory Phase Time 20 to 50 years Research Infrastructures life-cycle (2) M€

  10. M€ National support, incl. Structural funds EIB Possible FP support Construction Time 20 to 50 years Research Infrastructures life-cycle (3) Stakeholders

  11. FP6 investment in RTD infrastructure= € 0.730 Mio between 2003-2006 SF investment in RTD+I infrastructure= € 2.5 billions between 2000-2006 For 2007-2013, complementarity of SF and FP7 on RI of European significance : Some MS + "convergence regions" may use SF for construction of new RIs resulting from ESFRI work FP7 will support preparatory phase Structural Funds and Research Infrastructures

  12. ESFRI E urope an S trate gy F orum o n Research Infrastructures Objectives of the ESFRIEuropean Roadmap • Identificationof new research infrastructures or major upgrades which correspond to theneedsof European research communities • Tool for decision makers, preventing over-provision of facilities in particular areas • Providing a focus for long term budgetaryplanningby funding actors

  13. European Commission Member States Stakeholdersincl. EIROs Inclusion in REGIOstrategic plans Support through national Programmes Support through Specific RTD Programme(s) Projects EIB Increased use of financial engineering to support new research infrastructures

  14. Helping develop medium & long-term visions / action plans at EU level (Lisbon strategy) Stimulating use and pooling of resources (not achievable at nat’l level) for ‘unique’ facilities Sharing risks and complementing other sources (int’l, EU, nat’l, regio’l, etc.) to achieve impacts at EU level, based on excellence of research In brief, looking for catalysing, leveraging, additionality and managerial effects Goals of the Community Research Infrastructure Actions

  15. How to transcend the national interests and develop research infrastructures of truly pan-European / international interest? Last point and last question… • Deployment of Structural Funds for large RI requires a coherent policy, strategy and planning at the level of the Member states, in line with the ESFRI work
