  1. The 6th European Research Framework Program Future & Emerging Technologies 3rd QIPC call information event: 17 February 2004 Bratislava Dr. Gustav Kalbe European Commission I

  2. Content • Context • 6th Framework Program • FET II

  3. The RTD context • Lisbon Council ! • ERA: Pooling of European RTD resources • FP6: a key tool to help realize ERA • A new approach and new instruments • FP6 is not business as usual! III

  4. ANTICIPATING S&T NEEDS INTEGRATING EUROPEAN RESEARCH Research for policy support Frontier research, unexpected developments PRIORITY THEMATIC AREAS Specific SME activities Genomic and biotechnology for health INFORMATION SOCIETY TECHNOLOGIES Nanotechnologies, intelligent mat., new production processes Aeronautics and space Food safety and health risks Sustainable development and global change Citizens and governance in the knowledge society Specific international cooperation activities JRC activities STRENGTHENING THE FOUNDATIONS OF ERA Research and human innovation Human resources & mobility Research infrastructures Science and society STRUCTURING THE ERA Coordination of research activities Development of research/ innovation policies 6th Framework Program Structure IV

  5. 6th Framework Program:Budget • Priority Thematic Areas 12.770 M€ • Genomics 2.255 M€ • IST3.625 M€ • Nanotechnologies1.300 M€ • Aeronautics & Space 1.075 M€ • Food Quality & Safety 685 M€ • Sustainable Development 2.120 M€ • Citizens & Governance 225 M€ • Anticipating S&T Needs 2.345 M€ • Structuring the ERA 3.050 M€ • Strengthening ERA Foundations 450 M€

  6. Workprogram in FP6 • Provides further details on …the Scientific and technical content of the calls • Defines the evaluation and selection criteria • common set derived from the rules for participation • additional criteria depending on objectives • Defines the terms of the calls for proposals • objectives to be called for • distribution of budget between old and new instruments • Updated as appropriate • every year for IST

  7. The strategic objectives: what do they describe? => Topics addressed by Strategic Objectives ! For each objective, the WP: • Defines the goals to be achieved with RTD in Europe • Focuses on the parts that need to be addressed with the EU effort • Provides guidance on the types of instruments that need to be supported • Identifies the links with member-states activities • Identifies links with policies, e.g. eEurope,..

  8. IST in FP6: Objectives • Strengthening Europe’s competitiveness & technology base • Building the information and knowledge society for ALL • Establishing Europe’s leadership in the technologies at the heart of the knowledge economy and society IST in FP6: Strategy • Concentration and focus, building critical mass • Visionary, forward looking research • Strong articulation between research and policy objectives • Flexibility and greater speed in implementation

  9. 6th Framework Program:Instruments • Integrated Projects (IP) • Networks of Excellence (NoE) • Targeted research projects (STREP) • Co-ordination actions (CA) • Specific Support Actions (SSA) • Article 169 V

  10. Purpose of Integrated Projects (IP) • Designed to generate the knowledge required to implement the priority thematic areas of FP6 • by integrating the critical mass of activities and resources needed • to achieve ambitious, clearly defined scientific and technological objectives • Essentially an instrument for supporting objective-driven research of a European dimension

  11. Meaning of integration in IPs • Each IP should comprise a coherent set of component parts • Internal architecture may vary depending on topic, scope and managerial approach of each IP • Forms of integration: • “vertical” - full value chain of stakeholders • “horizontal” - multidisciplinarity • “sectoral” - private/public • “financial” - synergy with other schemes (EIB, Eurêka)

  12. Activities Activities integrated by a project may cover the full research spectrum • objective-driven research (long term & risky allowed) • technological development and demonstration as appropriate • may contain training • effective management of knowledge is essential (e.g. dissemination, patents, … ) • take-up measures can be included • societal impact studies possible • the whole carried out in a coherent management framework

  13. Network of Excellence (NoE): Objectives • Strengthen Europe’s excellence on a particular research topic • by integrating the critical mass of expertise needed to provide European leadership and be a world force • around a joint programme of activities • Tackling the fragmentation of European research • where the main deliverable is a durable structuring and shaping of how research is carried out in Europe • Spreading excellence beyond its partners

  14. NoE: The joint program of activities (1) • Integrating activities • coordinated programming of the partners’ activities • sharing of research platforms/tools/facilities • joint management of the knowledge portfolio • staff mobility and exchanges • relocation of staff, teams, equipment • reinforced electronic communication systems

  15. NoE: The joint program of activities (2) • Joint research activities: a programme of joint research to support the network’s goals • development of new research tools and platforms for common use • generating new knowledge to fill gaps in or to extend the collective knowledge portfolio

  16. NoE: The joint program of activities (3) • Activities to spread excellence • training researchers and other key staff • dissemination and communication activities • networking activities to help transfer knowledge to teams external to the network • where appropriate, promoting the exploitation of the results generated within the network • where appropriate, innovation-related activities

  17. NoE: The joint program of activities (4) Network management • overall coordination of the joint activities • communication with the Commission, reporting • activities linked to consortium-level financing and accounting management and legal issues • coordination of the knowledge management activities, if appropriate, other innovation-related activities • promotion of gender equality • science and society issues • supporting the governing board and other network bodies

  18. Traditional Instrument: STREP “Specific Targeted Research Project” • Targeted, well defined and precisely focused research and technological development • Demonstration component(s) as appropriate • Project management equivalent to the projects in FP5

  19. Traditional Instrument: CA “Co-ordination Action” • Organisation of conferences; • Performance of studies, analysis; • Exchanges of personnel; • Exchange and dissemination of good practice; • Setting up of common information systems; • Setting up of expert groups; • Definition, organisation, management of joint or common initiatives.

  20. Traditional Instrument: SSA “Specific Support Action” • Conferences, seminars, working groups and expert groups; • Studies, analysis; • Fact findings and monitoring; • Trans-national technology transfer and take-up related services; • Development of research or innovation strategies; • High level scientific awards and competitions; • Operational support and dissemination, information and communication activities.

  21. Future & Emerging Technologies (FET) • Visionary and exploratory research • Longer-term or high-risk research • ‘Nursery’ of novel ideas - trend-setting • Interdisciplinary • Helping new IST-related S&T fields and communities to emerge • Complementary to • other IST strategic objectives • other FP6 ‘Anticipating S&T needs / frontier research’ (new fields / multidisciplinary work) VI

  22. Future & Emerging Technologies • Open scheme: openness to unforeseeable ideas • reflects research trends • continuos submission • STREP & CA/SSA only • Proactive initiatives: critical mass where focus is needed • strategic vision, common objective • fixed deadline calls • call topics defined every year • IP & NoE only • e.g. ‘quantum information processing & communications’ (QIPC), ‘emerging nanoelectronics’ (NID), ‘global computing’ (GC), ‘bio-inspired intelligent information systems’ VII
