Duurzaam materialenbeheer Agentschap Ondernemen: vaste partner Streven naar : afstemming NIB-FvT & VMP, optimalisering steuninstrumentarium, samenwerking en synergieën via concrete acties vb. materialenscan voor kmo s (AO-OVAM) Vlaanderen = efficiënt draaiende kringloopeconomie Clustervorming Slimme specialisatie
Een volgende stap in de implementatie van het NIB Roadmaps en gericht clusterbeleid
Roadmaps en gericht clusterbeleid Doel 1. Vertrekken van entrepreneurial discovery 2. Emerging industries oprichten 3. Vernieuwende concepten en producten vermarkten Middel Gedragen roadmap Gericht clusterbeleid => Dit vereist een planmatige aanpak
Nieuwe oproep roadmapping Roadmapping van: Business cases Vermarkten van een concrete vernieuwing Waardenketens en clusters Creëren van een nieuwe industriële activiteit Voor economische uitdagingen Vernieuwend aspect + Impact op de waardenketen Analyse van de economische haalbaarheid Toolkit Dialogic Resultaat : integrale roadmap : rol cluster + overheid

Horizon 2020 Het Europees strategisch beleid over materialen Jan Ramboer, project officer DG Research & Innovation Europese Commissie
HORIZON 2020 The New EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation 2014-2020 Jan Ramboer Fabriek voor de Toekomst Nieuwe Materialen 23 rd of October 2013
The Multiannual Financial Framework 2014-2020: European Council conclusions, 8 February 2013 Key challenge: stabilise the financial and economic system while taking measures to create economic opportunities 1. Smart & inclusive growth ( 451 billion) Education, Youth, Sport Connecting Europe Cohesion Competitive Business SMEs HORIZON 2020 2. Sustainable growth, natural resources ( 373 billion) 3. Security and citizenship ( 16 billion) 4. Global Europe ( 58 billion) 5. Administration ( 61.6 billion) TOTAL 960 billion
Investment in R&D is part of the solution to exit from the economic crises
What is Horizon 2020 Initial Commission proposal for a 80 billion research and innovation funding programme (2014-2020); now just over 70 billion A core part of Europe 2020, Innovation Union & European Research Area: Responding to the economic crisis to invest in future jobs and growth Addressing people s concerns about their livelihoods, safety and environment Strengthening the EU s global position in research, innovation and technology
Active involvement of stakeholders EU Presidencies: Sweden (societal challenges-based approach), Spain (integration of research and innovation), Hungary (FP7 interim evaluation), Poland (widening participation), European Council conclusions from 4.2.2011 (Common Framework to bring together all EU research and innovation funding) European Parliament reports: Merkies (Innovation Union), Audy (FP7 evaluation), Matias (Horizon 2020) and Carvalho (simplification) Overwhelming response to the public consultation on Horizon 2020 (more than 2000 contributions) Survey on administrative costs for participants in FP7 25 workshops on the content of Horizon 2020
What's new A single programme bringing together three separate programmes/initiatives* Coupling research to innovation from research to retail, all forms of innovation Focus on societal challenges facing EU society, e.g. health, clean energy and transport Simplified access, for all companies, universities, institutes in all EU countries and beyond The 7 th Research Framework Programme (FP7), innovation aspects of Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme (CIP), EU contribution to the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT)
Three priorities Excellent science Industrial leadership Societal challenges
Priority 2. Industrial leadership Why: Strategic investments in key technologies (e.g. advanced materials, micro-electronics) underpin innovation across existing and emerging sectors 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
Proposed funding ( million, 2014-2020) Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies (LEITs) (i) ICT including micro- and nano-electronics and photonics (ii) Nanotechnologies (iii) Advanced Materials (iv) Biotechnology (v) Advanced Manufacturing & Processing (vi) Space Access to risk finance Leveraging private finance and venture capital for research and innovation Innovation in SMEs Fostering all forms of innovation in all types of SMEs 13 557 2 842 616
Calls for Nanotechnologies, Advanced Materials, Biotechnology & Advanced Manufacturing and Processing One call for Nanotechnologies, Advanced materials Business models and KET support actions (NMP call) One call for Biotechnology Three cross-cutting calls implementing Factories of the Future (FoF), Energy-efficient buildings (EeB) and Sustainable Process Industries (SPIRE) 32
The proposal should describe: Exploitation and/or business plans Engagement of partners along industrial value chain Standardisation IPR Dissemination of know-how Support for education and training Expected impact 33
Simplification: Rules for Participation 1. A single set of rules: Adapted for the whole research and innovation cycle Covering all research programmes and funding bodies Aligned to the Financial Regulation, coherent with other new EU Programmes 2. One project one funding rate Maximum of 100% of the total eligible costs (except for innovation actions, where a 70% maximum will apply for profit making entities) Indirect eligible costs: a flat rate of 25% of direct eligible costs 3. Simple evaluation criteria Excellence Impact Implementation (Excellence only, for the ERC) 4. New forms of funding aimed at innovation pre-commercial procurement, inducement prizes, dedicated loan and equity instruments 5. International participation facilitated but better protecting EU interests
Simplification: Rules for Participation 6. Simpler rules for grants broader acceptance of participants accounting practices for direct costs, flat rate for indirect costs, no time-sheets for personnel working full time on a project, possibility of output-based grants 7. Fewer, better targeted controls and audits Lowest possible level of requirements for submission of audit certificates without undermining sound financial management Audit strategy focused on risk and fraud prevention 8. Improved rules on intellectual property Balance between legal security and flexibility Tailor-made IPR provisions for new forms of funding A new emphasis on open access to research publications Beyond the Rules: further simplified provisions in the Grant Agreement and implementing procedures to facilitate access to Horizon 2020 (e.g. common IT platform).
Simplification: summary Single set of simpler and more coherent participation rules New balance between trust and control Moving from several funding rates for different beneficiaries and activities to just two Replacing the four methods to calculate overhead or «indirect costs» with a single flat rate Major simplification under the forthcoming financial regulation Successful applicants to get working more quickly: time-to-grant of 8 months; exceptions for the ERC and in duly justified cases
Strong participation by SMEs Integrated approach - around 20% of the total budget for societal challenges and LEITs to go to SMEs Simplification of particular benefit to SMEs (e.g. single entry point) A new SME instrument will be used across all societal challenges as well as for the LEITs A dedicated activity for research-intensive SMEs in 'Innovation in SMEs' 'Access to risk finance' will have a strong SME focus (debt and equity facility)
