Building a Europe of Knowledge Towards the Seventh Framework Programme 2007-2013

Summary European research: increasing budgets FPs: significant impacts on S&T and the economy FPs: strong impact on the integration of the ERA Why double the FP7 budget? Projected FP7 economic impacts What’s new?

EU research: the story so far 1952: ECSC treaty; first projects started March 1955 1957: EURATOM treaty; Joint Research Centre set up 1983: ESPRIT programme 1984: First Framework Programme (1984-1987) 1987: ‘European Single Act’ – science becomes a Community responsibility; Second Framework Programme (1987-1991) 1990: Third Framework Programme (1990-1994) 1993: Treaty on European Union; role of RTD in the enlarged EU 1994: Fourth Framework Programme (1994-1998) 1998: Fifth Framework Programme (1998-2002) 2000: European Research Area 2002: Sixth Framework Programme (2002-2006) 2005: Proposal for the Seventh Framework Programme (2007-2013)

Research: filling the gap Total expenditure on R&D, % of GDP – Barcelona Summit, 2001

What’s new? Main new elements compared to FP6: Duration increased from five to seven years Annual budget doubled (€5 billion €10 billion) Basic research (~ €1.5 billion per year) New structure: cooperation, ideas, people, capacities Flexible funding schemes Joint Technology Initiatives Simpler procedures Logistical and administrative tasks external structures

Information and Communication Technologies ICT Technology Pillars Integration of Technologies Applications Research Future and Emerging Technologies

Environment (inc. climate change) Climate change, pollution and risks Sustainable management of resources Environmental technologies Earth observation and assessment tools

Security and Space Protection against terrorism and crime Security of infrastructures and utilities Border security Restoring security in case of crisis Security systems integration and interoperability Security and society Security research Coordination and structuring Space-based applications at the service of the European society Exploration of space RTD for strengthening space foundations

JRC – Research-based policy support Five policy themes for FP7 Sustainable growth Conservation and management of natural resources Citizenship External responsibility and global security EURATOM programme

How FP7 and CIP complement each other Complementary and mutually reinforcing actions Competitiveness and dissemination remain key elements of FP7 Designed to operate side by side in support of Lisbon objectives Close coordination FP7: Dissemination of knowledge and innovation-related activities (within projects) CIP: Innovation support networks and take-up of proven technologies

FP7 Timetable Commission’s proposal 6 April 2005 September 2005 December 2005 January 2006? March 2006? June 2006 November 2006 February 2007 Commission’s proposal Specific programmes’ proposal First reading at EP Common position at Council Second reading and approval at EP Adoption First calls for proposals Launch conference

ICT – Key to Future Wealth & Welfare ICT – a key enabler for productivity growth competitiveness ICT investments contribute half of Europe’s productivity gains ICT – an important sector in its own right From 4% of EU GDP in early 90s to close to 8% today ICT – a facilitator for more efficient public services ICT also allows more participation in democracy and public life ICT – providing tools for addressing societal challenges Ageing population, health and social care, security, etc. ICT – underpinning progress in all science & technology fields GÉANT, the world-leading research network, Grid infrastructures, etc.

Objectives: ‘Making a Difference’ ‘To enable Europe to master and shape the future developments of ICT so that the demands of its society and economy are met’ Thereby: Strengthening the competitiveness of all industry in Europe Master ICT for innovation and growth Reinforcing the competitive position of European ICT sector Build industrial and technology leadership Supporting EU policies Mobilise ICT to meet public and societal demands Strengthening the European science & technology base A pre-condition for success

ICT Technology Pillars ‘Pushing the limits of performance, usability, dependability, cost-efficiency’ Nano-electronics, photonics & integrated micro/nano-systems Ubiquitous and unlimited capacity communication networks Embedded systems, computing and control Software, grids, security and dependability Knowledge, cognitive and learning systems Simulation, visualisation, interaction and mixed realities New perspectives emerging in ICT drawing on other science and technology disciplines

Applications Research ‘Providing the knowledge and the means to develop a wide range of ICT-based services and applications’ ICT meeting societal challenges Health; inclusion; mobility; environment; governments ICT for content, creativity and personal development New media and content; learning; digital cultural assets ICT supporting businesses and industry Business processes; collaborative work; manufacturing ICT for trust and confidence Identity; authentication; authorisation; privacy; rights

Environment 1/3 Climate change, pollution and risks Pressures on environment and climate Environment and health Natural hazards Sustainable Management of Resources Conservation and sustainable management of natural and man-made resources Evolution of marine environments

Environment 2/3 Environmental Technologies Environmental technologies for observation, prevention, mitigation, adaptation, remediation and restoration of the natural and man-made environment Technology assessment, verification and testing Earth observation and assessment tools Earth observation Forecasting methods and assessment tools

Environment 3/3 Environmental Research to support EU International commitments such as: Kyoto Protocol UN Convention on Biological Diversity World Summit on Sustainable Development Environmental Research to contribute to: Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Global Earth Observation Initiative (GEO)

Space Objectives Rationale To support a European Space Programme focusing on applications such as GMES, with benefits for citizens and for the competitiveness of the European space industry This will contribute to the development of a European Space Policy, complementing efforts by Member States and by other key players, including the European Space Agency Rationale User-driven applications: benefits to public authorities and decision-makers (in fields such as agriculture, environment, fisheries, security, telecommunications, transport) Benefits to European industry: better definition of common objectives based on user requirements and policy objectives Coordination of activities: to avoid duplication, maximise interoperability and define standards

Space activities Activities Space-based applications at the service of the European Society GMES (Global Monitoring for Environment and Security): user driven approach to: Development of satellite-based monitoring systems Integration with in-situ monitoring systems Use and delivery of GMES data and services Innovative satellite communication services in public application sectors (e.g. civil protection, tele-medicine) Technologies for reducing the vulnerability of space-based services and for the surveillance of space

Budgets of the EU Framework Programmes 1984-2013 The Annual Report 2003 was published in August 2004, so it contains the latest available published data. The Figures for 2012 and 2013 include projections for Euratom as shown in the Commission proposal even though the Euratom FP will run only until 2011. Budget/execution figures are for commitments in current prices and reflect the real totals shown below. Figures for recent years are provisional. Real totals for FP1-6: 3.27 5.36 6.6 13.12 14.85 19.235 Original budgets for FP1-6 : 3.27 5.36 6.6 13.12 14.96 17.5 NB: Budgets in current prices. Source: Annual Report 2003, plus FP7 proposal
