Key Enabling Technologies Tecnologie "ad alta intensità di conoscenza e associate ad elevata intensità di R & S, a cicli d'innovazione rapidi, a consistenti spese di investimento e a posti di lavoro altamente qualificati. Rendono possibile l'innovazione nei processi, nei beni e nei servizi in tutti i settori economici e hanno quindi rilevanza sistemica. Sono multidisciplinari, interessano tecnologie di diversi settori e tendono a convergere e a integrarsi. Possono aiutare i leader nelle tecnologie di altri settori a trarre il massimo vantaggio dalle loro attività di ricerca“ *Current situation of key enabling technologies in Europe, SEC (2009) Photonics Manufacturing Biotechnology Advanced Materials Micro/Nanoelectronics Nanotechnologies 3° PILLAR SOCIETAL CHALLENGES 19 Struttura del programma Industrial Technologies Excellent Science European Research Council Frontier research by the best individual teams Future and Emerging Technologies Collaborative research to open new fields of innovation Marie Skłodowska Curie actions Opportunities for training and career development Research infrastructures (including e-infrastructure) Ensuring access to world-class facilities Societal Challenges Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies ICT, nanotechnologies, materials, biotechnology, manufacturing, space Health, demographic change and wellbeing Access to risk finance Leveraging private finance and venture capital for research and innovation Secure, clean and efficient energy Innovation in SMEs Fostering all forms of innovation in all types of SMEs Climate action, resource efficiency and raw materials Food security, sustainable agriculture, marine and maritime research & the bioeconomy Smart, green and integrated transport Inclusive, innovative and reflective societies Security society European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) Spreading Excellence and Widening Participation Science with and for society Joint Research Center (JRC) 20 Eligibility for funding • Entities established in Member States or associated countries or third country identified in the WP • Entities created under Union law • International European interest organisation • Other entities may receive funding if: – participation is essential or – such funding foreseen in bilateral arrangement between the Union and third country/international organisation Disclaimer : legally not binding Conditions for participation • Minimum conditions • For standard collaborative actions • At least, 3 legal independent entities, each established in different MS/AC • For SME Instrument, ERC, MSC, programme co-fund, CSA • 1 legal entity established in a MS/AC • Additional conditions • To be set out in the Work Programme (i.e. number of participants, type of participants, etc.) Automatic funding • Member States (+ OCT) • Associated Countries (under process) • International Cooperation Partner Countries – No industrialised (e.g. USA, Canada, Japan, South Korea, New Zeland, Australia…) – No Brazil, Russia, India, China + Mexico General Annexes A «List of Countries and applicable rules for funding» 23 Forms of funding • Grants • Direct financial contribution by way of donation in order to finance an action • Prizes • Financial contribution given as reward following a contest • Procurement • Supply of assets, execution of works or provision of services against payment • Financial instruments • Equity or quasi-equity investments;

they are also used to describe research and development activities (100% funding) • In the case of a Research and Innovation action, these activities are undertaken on a small scale prototype, in a laboratory or simulated environment • Innovation projects may include limited research and development activities. • Type of project expected, funding and Technology Readiness Level scale indicated in the WP topics Tipologie di progetti di accompagnamento Coordination and Support Actions accompanying measures such as standardisation, dissemination, awareness-raising and communication, networking, coordination or support services, policy dialogues and mutual learning exercises and studies, including design studies for new infrastructure and may also include complementary activities of strategic planning, networking and coordination between programmes in different countries Funding rate: 100% 30 Process to grant and signature of GA A maximum Time To Grant of 8 months 5 months for informing all applicants on scientific evaluation 3 months for signature of GA Remarks : • no changes of the composition of the consortium (removal or substitution needs to be duly justified) before signature of the grant agreement • No provision for competitive call in order to include new beneficiaries H2020 Evaluation Evaluation process Eligibility Check? Individual Reading Consensus Panel review (Remote) ••• 33 …but adapting to Horizon 2020 • New types of call; new types of proposal • multi-disciplinary and multi-sectoral; more emphasis on innovation and close-to-market; • Simplification, for applicants, experts, and for streamlined operations; • Coherence across the progamme Evaluation Process Chain of individual, consensus and panel review maintained. But changes w.r.t. FP7: • Dealing with multi-disciplinary/sectoral proposals • New expert profiles, new blood; • Call for experts planned for November • Robust rules on expert turnover; • More experts per proposal; • Clear procedures for cases where experts disagree • Dealing with 8 month TTG • Proposals strictly evaluated on their own merit • No recommendations for substantial changes • More multi-step (stopping evaluation when threshold failed) • Fast and simplified procedure for SME instrument (i.a.) Award criteria (Research and Innovation; Innovation Actions) • 1. Excellence • Clarity of the objectives; Soundness of the concept, including transdisciplinary considerations; Credibility of the proposed approach; Progress beyond the state of the art. 2. Impact: […] contribution to: The expected impacts listed in the work programme Enhancing innovation capacity and integration of new knowledge; Strengthening the competitiveness and growth of companies by developing innovations meeting the needs of European and global markets; …measures to, disseminate and exploit the project results,… communication. • 3. Quality and efficiency of implementation Coherence and effectiveness of work plan, … allocation of tasks, resources; Competences, experience and complementarity of the individual participants, as well as of the consortium as a whole; Appropriateness of the management structures and procedures….risk management. Scoring/weights/thresholds • As in FP7 each criterion scored out of 5; individual threshold of 3; overall threshold of 10 Scoring Scores must be in the range 1-5. Half marks may be given. Interpretation of the scores 0 — The proposal fails to address the criterion or cannot be assessed due to missing or incomplete information. 1 — Poor. The criterion is inadequately addressed, or there are serious inherent weaknesses. 2 — Fair. The proposal broadly addresses the criterion, but there are significant weaknesses. 3 — Good. The proposal addresses the criterion well, but a number of shortcomings are present. 4 — Very Good. The proposal addresses the criterion very well, but a small number of shortcomings are present. 5 — Excellent. The proposal successfully addresses all relevant aspects of the criterion. Selection of proposals All above threshold proposals in each topic are listed in descending order of overall score We select proposals starting from the top of the list, until the available budget is exhausted So, ranking of proposal is very important ••• 39 Per maggiori informazioni: http://ec.europa.eu/research/horizon2020/index_en.cfm 40 Link utili Horizon 2020 APRE Participant portal SME TechWeb Ec Press release COSME EEN EEN - Italia http://ec.europa.eu/research/horizon2020/index_en.cf m http://www.apre.it/ricerca-europea/horizon2020/partecipazione-delle-pmi/ http://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/portal/pag e/home http://sme.cordis.europa.eu/home/index.cfm http://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_MEMO-13181_en.htm http://ec.europa.eu/cip/cosme/index_en.htm http://een.ec.europa.eu/ http://www.enterprise-europe-network-italia.eu/ 41 Questions?
