2. New Paths for Funding Horizon 2020 is quite different from FP7 Understanding the scope of opportunities for funding across Horizon 2020 – key to success for individual stakeholders CooperationPeopleIdeasCapacities Societal Challenges Industrial Leadership Excellent Science 29.7 17.024.4 32.44.77.54.1 FP7 53 bil € H2020 71 bil €

3. NMP in Horizon 2020

4. NMP in LEIT - Leadership in Enabling and Industrial Technologies NMP+B Micro- and Nano-electronics Nanotechnologies Advanced Materials Advanced Manufacturing and Processing Biotechnology Photonics NMP+B - 4 out of 6 Key Enabling Technologies (KETs) Translation along the value chains Focus on demonstration / pilot activities NMP - rather a horizontal topic Understanding the scope of opportunities for funding across Horizon 2020 – key to success for individual stakeholders

5. Technology Readiness Levels Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs)* - tool for assessment of the industrial potential of Key Enabling Technologies (KETs) TRL1 – basic principles observed TRL2 – technology concept formulated TRL3 – experimental proof of concept TRL4 – technology validated in lab TRL5 – technology validated in relevant environment (industrial environment in case of KET´s) TRL6 – technology demonstrated in relevant environment TRL7 – system prototype demonstration in operational environment TRL8 – system complete and qualified TRL9 – competitive manufacturing * http://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/portal/desktop/en/funding/reference_docs.html#h2020-work-programmes-2014-15-annexes
