Background: EU Robotics programme in FP 7 (2007– 2013) • More than 100 on-going projects today • With over 700 partners • FP 7 – Robotics: ~500 M€ funding http: //cordis. europa. eu/fp 7/ict/robotics/projects/areas-projects_en. html
Background – Horizon 2020 § Horizon 2020: stronger focus on innovation and bringing research closer to the market § Simplified access for all companies, universities, institutes in all EU countries and beyond § New instruments to foster innovation, for example Pre-Commercial Procurement or the SME Instrument § Three priorities: —Excellent Science —Industrial Leadership (this is where robotics will be situated) —Societal Challenges
Goals § Growth, Jobs & Competitiveness § Better articulation of research and innovation § Seamless funding from idea to market What's new: More innovation, from research to market, all forms of innovation -> NOT SHIFT BUT EXTENSION
Towards Horizon 2020: Public-Private Partnership (PPP) in robotics Basic Research R&D Innovation EXTE NSIO N Uptake
What is a PPP? European Robotics PPP Private Partner - eu. Robotics aisbl ● Development of research & development & innovation agenda ● Suggesting call topics, priorities, funding profile Regular meetings Public Partner ● Implementation of R&D&I agenda structured dialogue CLEAR SEPARATION OF ROLES Private Partner => Strategy Public Partner => Implementation The private part is not involved in the selection of proposals
MYTHS ABOUT PPP and H 2020 § PPP not limited to applied research: Still many fundamental scientific issues to solve hard problems – necessary for take up Check SRA/MAR § H 2020: Not SHIFT from R to I BUT expand from RTD to R & I, Roadmap-based activities driven by applications needs
