10. Advisory Council for Aviation Research and Innovation in Europe Conclusion Several funding opportunities for aviation research exist in member states, however national research funds suffer from the financial crises In addition funding for aviation under Horizon 2020 is mainly focused on large closer to the market initiatives such as Clean Sky and SESAR National funds can not compensate for the gap that exists for lower TRL level research As a result of this gap, the European leadership is in jeopardy and may have the consequence of Europe not achieving the ACARE SRIA high level objectives Regional and structural funds are an area still underexplored

11. Advisory Council for Aviation Research and Innovation in Europe Recommendations National/regional/structural funding programmes follow a different technical and political agenda and have different governance structures This represents a challenge for both the European Commission, Clean Sky, SESAR and the Member States Alignment and synergies between different funds may be strengthened with the help of private (regional) stakeholders The Member States recommend to investigate potential synergies between Horizon 2020, EU Structural funds and/or national and regional funds.
