FP 7: Application Process http: //www. ukro. ac. uk
General Trends to Expect until 2013 Innovation Union priorities ERC - Introduction • Future FP 7 calls will reflect Innovation Union priorities • Likely to see more topics which lay the basis for innovation • Examples: Eco-innovation call in Environment, ERC Proof of Concept, Demonstration in Research for the Benefit of SMEs Involving industry • More topics which specify that SMEs must be involved • For example, topics in FAFB theme with minimum budget to SMEs • Also a focus on dissemination and communication of results Higher budget • FP 7 budget structured to increase in 2012 and 2013 • Likely to see more proposals submitted, but more funded as well • Effect of national funding situation on both application numbers and budget?

FP 7 Capacities: Research for the Benefit of SMEs
FP 7 Capacities Research for the Benefit of SMEs Policy Background • SMEs at heart of European industry and the Europe 2020 Strategy • Playing an increasingly important role in a globalised economy • Key component in turning knowledge into products, processes and services • EU Member States have their own support actions for SMEs - EU level actions are necessary to complement and enhance these
FP 7 Capacities Research for the Benefit of SMEs • Objective is to provide financial support to SMEs or SME associations to outsource R & D, with a view to acquiring IPR, and preferably ownership, of the project results • Strengthens innovation capacity of SMEs • Supports SMEs or SME associations in need of outsourcing research to RTD performers (including universities and research centres) • Support given through 3 main calls: • Research for SMEs • Research for SME associations • Demonstration action
FP 7 Capacities Research for the Benefit of SMEs Specific activities For 2012, three main SME-specific schemes will be implemented: Activity 2. 1 - Research for SMEs • Supports small groups of innovative SMEs to solve common/ complimentary technological problems • Short-term projects centred on innovation needs of SMEs • Must demonstrate clear exploitation potential for SMEs
FP 7 Capacities Research for the Benefit of SMEs Specific activities (continued) Activity 2. 2 - Research for SME Associations • Helps to develop techncal solutions to common problems • Focus on specific industrial sectors or segments of the value chain • Covers areas such as conforming to EU norms, standards and regulatory requirements • Project duration of several years • Must also involve a number of individual SMEs
FP 7 Capacities Research for the Benefit of SMEs Specific activities (continued) Activity 2. 3 - Demonstration action (piloted in 2011 call) • To support projects which enable SMEs to carry out demonstration activities before a product enters the market • Activities can include: testing of product-like prototypes, implementation of new technical solutions or market studies/business plans • SME must take the lead within the consortium • Project duration foreseen to be 1. 5 to 2 years • In 2012 call, this is only open to SMEs/SME Associations which have previously participated in successful projects
FP 7 Capacities Research for the Benefit of SMEs 2012 Call Participation requirements: • At least 3 participants must be independent SMEs established in at least 3 EU Member States or FP 7 Associated Countries • At least 2 participants must be RTD performers independent from any other participant • Other legal entities, such as other enterprises or endusers that make a particular contribution to the project and to solving specific problems or needs of SMEs may participate, though not in a dominant role
FP 7: Finances http: //www. ukro. ac. uk
FP Finances – Key Principles • Co-financing principle: FP 7 Financial Issues • Usually based on reimbursement of direct and indirect costs • Lump sums or flat rates in certain actions • • Balancing EC and own contribution No need for ‘hard cash’ own contribution No profit No commercial activities Different project types/funding schemes EC principles of eligible costs and non-eligible costs Remember that f. EC is not the same as full reimbursement
Maximum reimbursement rates* Intro to FP 7 Finances FP 7 – Industry FP 7 – Public Bodies, Universities, SMEs, etc. RTD 50% 75% Demonstration 50% Other** 100% ** Co-ordination and Support Actions, Training, Management
