12 A new lab in 2015: Railway Certification, Telecom, GSM-R and LTE for Railways 12 06/2013 L'Union européenne et la Wallonie investissent dans votre avenir

13 Railway Research Infrastructures Alliance Initiative Creation of a EU alliance in niche technology Transfer for IT/Rail/Substainable transport Alliance focus 13 06/2013 L'Union européenne et la Wallonie investissent dans votre avenir

14 Alliance Specific Characteristics Funding : ERDF funds especially well adapted to the goal; 100% funding for universities (compared with 50% in Shift2Rail) /2013 L'Union européenne et la Wallonie investissent dans votre avenir

15 A European alliance Aligned with ERDF Priorities + 40 European universities have been contacted + 26 have confirmed their interest 15 06/2013 L'Union européenne et la Wallonie investissent dans votre avenir

16 SME-oriented Alliance Specific Characteristics vital for small countries without national champions With direct connection with EC agencies (ERA) Preliminary information on new EC regulations Focus on concrete technology transfers not conference publications not strategic large orientation discussion Focus on niche profitable markets e.g. Specific interoperability problems (frontiers), Maintenance tools, certification & control /2013 L'Union européenne et la Wallonie investissent dans votre avenir

17 A European alliance Aligned with ERDF Priorities Four Labs: Re-Rail: Safety and Reliability analysis of ERTMS/ETCS train management system BALRAIL: link with ex-ussr signalling and train control system Urban Rail Lab: urban transport, noise impact analysis Central Europe Lab: freight logistic planning 17 06/2013 L'Union européenne et la Wallonie investissent dans votre avenir

18 A IT/ rail / transport European alliance Who are already the members? Up to now, 26 Universities and research centres from: Belgium, Bulgaria, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, United Kingdom... Larger countries (France, Germany) will be integrated later (following Shift2Rail initiative) 18 06/2013 L'Union européenne et la Wallonie investissent dans votre avenir

19 Why ERDF Partnership oriented? Focused on Technology Transfer (TT) on Sustainable Transport/Rail/IT : Why? Huge budget will be devoted to Transport & Rail Research in ERDF funds. For ERDF, research needs to boost regional development : TT will be key and specific. ERDF eligible regions have not «large» actors in the transport field. Strong alliance to exist and provide added values to «large» actors, to public operators No duplication of infrastructures A strong requirement of ERDF authorities for ERDF program 19 06/2013 L'Union européenne et la Wallonie investissent dans votre avenir

20 ERDF Partnership Proposal Current EU Rail Networks Current EU rails networks: - EURNEX: rail research (academic) - EURAIL: rail training - ERCI: EU cluster of 8 national rail clusters - UNIFE : Industrial strategic orientation Nothing in the «Gap» Nothing oriented SME «niche» market > a place to be!! 20 06/2013 L'Union européenne et la Wallonie investissent dans votre avenir

21 ERDF Partnership Proposal: How to start? Why Starting from Belgium? Initiated by Multitel (MLT) : MLT has experience in ERDF since 1994 MLT is active in Research & TT : in IT and Transport since 1994, in IT Rail since 2005 MLT is active on all TT aspects (Licensing, Spin-offs, Training, Certification) MLT has a quasi-unique certification infrastructure thanks to TT from ERDF projects. MLT is located close to EU (Brussels) & ERA (Valenciennes) The infrastructure funded by EDRF have triggered a real TT cycle (including spin-off company creation) 21 06/2013 L'Union européenne et la Wallonie investissent dans votre avenir

22 ERDF Partnership Proposal : How to start? Why Starting from Belgium? Positive Inputs Support from Belgian Universities: UCL, UMONS M. Demotte, Minister-President of the Walloon Region, M.
