13 Horizon 2020 Strategic Programme What? Commissions Internal planning document laying out the main areas to be covered by funding in the H2020 sub-programmes addressing societal challenges and industrial leadership. How much? Up to 50 % of all funding from the two programmes in the first two years. What are the focus areas? Personalised health and care Sustainable food security Blue growth: Unlocking the potential of the oceans Smart cities and communities Competitive low-carbon energy Energy efficiency Mobility for growth Waste: a resource to recycle, reuse and recover raw materials Water innovation: Boosting its value for Europe Overcoming the crises: new ideas, strategies and governance structures for Europe Disaster-resilience: safeguarding and securing society, including adopting to climate change Digital security

14 Horizon 2020 Strategic Programme The personalising health and care call aims to create opportunities for real breakthrough research and radical innovation in response to these challenges, by supporting the translation of findings into the clinic and other health and care settings to improve health outcomes, reduce health inequalities and to promote active and healthy ageing.

15 Horizon 2020 Need to have Excellence - European research budget cuts means that the competition will be fierce - Fewer and broader topics will generate a larger number of applicants Well developed network of International partners - Most EU projects requires participants from at least three different countries - Strong allies are priceless if you want to lobby for an idea A sense of Impact - The ability to describe and account for impact particularly in relation to the creation of growth and jobs, is a strict necessity in most topics - Improved knowledge is good but not enough The European dimension - The output of your research should be relevant/applicable to most of the EU

16 Horizon 2020 Nice to have SME s (Small and Medium sized Companies) - Many topics will have concrete mentioning of expected SME participation Cross-disciplinary approach - The EU recognizes that most societal challenges often can t be solved by doing research (and politics) in silo's Gender -The EU is strongly encouraging more inclusion of female researchers in research projects Widening participation -Representation from less developed member states / regions of the EU can in some cases be an advantage International Cooperation -Participation from countries outside the EU may be beneficial for an application (new markets, aid, excellent input not found elsewhere) -However most often they will have to bring their own funding

17 Horizon 2020 Important questions to ask yourselves Are we competetive? Beyond state of the art? Can we account for a proper impact? Is the timing right? Does it fit with the European agenda? Do we have the right partners/competences in consortia? Do we have the time to see this through? Are we clear about what we want and how we whish to achieve it?

29 SOCIETAL CHALLENGES 1 The topic PHC : Development of new diagnostic tools and technologies: in vivo medical imaging technologies Specific challenge: The development of new diagnostics (more sensitive, robust and selective) for improved clinical practice demands the translation of multidisciplinary scientific and technological knowledge from diverse fields into clinical applications. Innovation in the diagnostics area relies on the development, translation and uptake of existing, new or evolving, and often complex technologies. A wide range of multidisciplinary competencies need to be brought together to develop and bring new diagnostics to the patient. This is also a field where many European companies are active. Scope: Proposals will focus on the development of innovative in vivo imaging tools and technologies (not novel applications of existing ones). Tools and technology should aim at improving diagnosis, prediction, monitoring, imagebased intervention or assessment of therapeutic response, with a significant impact on clinical decisions and health outcomes. Preference will be given to innovations that offer a clear advantage over existing tools and technologies. Development of in vivo medical imaging technologies should make use of existing high-tech engineering or physics solutions or innovative ideas and concepts coming from those fields. The Commission considers that proposals requesting a contribution from the EU between the range of EUR XXX to XXX would allow this specific challenge to be addressed appropriately. Nonetheless, this does not preclude submission and selection of proposals requesting other amounts. Expected impact: New in vivo diagnostic tools and methods providing more accurate, more reliable and earlier disease diagnosis, prediction or response to therapy, leading to improved clinical decisions and outcomes. Contribution to the sustainability of health care systems. Growth of the European diagnostics sector, in particular for SMEs Type of action: Research and innovation action The conditions for this topic are provided in the general conditions for this call. 29

36 Forskning & Innovation Hvorfor deltage i Horizon 2020? Torben Høøck Hansen Forskning & Innovation EU Kontoret DTU, 6. november 2013 Dias 36

37 Disclaimer What you are about to hear is mainly related to big collaborative multi-partner projects My views are based on experience from FP3 - FP7 Horizon 2020 have a lot of new features, not all are yet disclosed in detail so we all have to be alert

38 Yes, there are rules, but. As potential applicants, at this stage you only need to know: You must to have at least two partners Must not be from the same member state Must be independent from each other Must be a legal entity That your project is within the scope of the topic you apply under in short: you can deliver what EU wants

39 The really bad reasons for participating Money - in the sense you want to generate a profit you can spend on other projects / new or unforseen research & innovation activities within the project Urgent need of funds for a (on-going?) project

40 The very good reason for being part of a EU project It will be a project you are unable to do on your own* and will most likely have far more impact than most things your own group could do alone (*if you could, EU would never fund it)

41 Other positive drivers in a collaborative project You get a new network, or improve existing ones You get access to a pool of knowledge you could not develop on your own You are in a good position to influence EU on future work programmes and other initiatives Being part of a successful EU project will be noticed by those going to fund your next project

42 Network and knowledge In Horizon 2020 a lot of projects will be crossdisciplinary shortcut into fields outside your own Cross-sectoral too access to industry, research organisations, public providers, regulatory bodies, patient organisations etc. Access to a lot of brainpower, cohorts, databases, biobanks etc. New perspectives your partners might have insights and ideas that point you in new directions

43 Influence and spin-off EU pay more attention to results they have paid for (in case you want to lobby for something in the future) Use the EU project as leverage for applying for e.g. Marie Curie fellowships (swap good researchers with your partners, EU pick up the bill) Most national research councils and private foundations see it as a mark of quality that the applicant have been leader of (or part of) a big successful project

44 A successful consortium depends on the topic An example where one perhaps would have to look outside ones normal range of collaborators: PHC : Health promotion and disease prevention: improved inter-sector cooperation for environment and health based interventions Specific challenge: Better health promotion and disease prevention interventions can make a significant contribution to equitable.[] health in all policies approach has been identified as a promising means [] requires a multi-sector approach that aims to improve health by addressing such factors as housing; water and sanitation systems; transportation; communication, education and information; occupational health and safety; food production and distribution, and the physical and social environments. Scope: Given the breadth of sectors, the specific focus of this topic for 2015 is the integration of environment and health sectors (including but not limited to climate change, air quality, water and sanitation, workplace, etc.). Using a multidisciplinary approach and involving relevant stakeholders such as policy makers, the private sector, civil society organisations etc. proposals will: Develop inter-sector interventions (and/or policy initiatives) to promote health or prevent disease based on existing evidence. These interventions will address key environmental stressors for which changes in relevant EU and international policies related to environment and health would have the greatest impact; Document success characteristics of these interventions, including those which overcome barriers to inter-sector co-operation; contextual factors such as the interplay between politics and economics should be addressed;
