Timeline
Commissioner Kroes called on industry to join EU Commission in a PPP on 5G Commissioner Kroes called on industry at Mobile World Congress 2013 in Barcelona, Spain And today I call on EU industry and other partners to join us in a Public-Private partnership in this area. An open platform that helps us reach our common goal more coherently, directly, and quickly. European 5G is an unmissable opportunity to recapture the global technological lead. And I hope you will be able to support and join us. Source: Commissioner Neelie Kroes, Smashing barriers and thinking big.

5G Research in Horizon 2020 Key aspects of the 5G-PPP Bernard BARANI European Commission - DG CONNECT Unit E1: Network Technologies "The views expressed in this presentation are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of the European Commission"
H2020 Context Article 25: Public-private partnerships 1. Horizon 2020 may be implemented through public-private partnerships where all the partners concerned commit to supporting the development and implementation of precompetitive research and of innovation activities of strategic importance to the Union's competitiveness and industrial leadership or to addressing specific societal challenges. Public-private partnerships shall be implemented in such a way that full participation of the best European players is not impeded. 2. The involvement of the Union in public-private partnerships shall make use of the preexisting and lean governance structures and may take one of the following forms: a) financial contributions from the Union to joint undertakings established pursuant to Article 187 TFEU under the Seventh Framework Programme, subject to the amendment of their basic acts; to new public-private partnerships b) contractual arrangements between the partners referred to in paragraph 1, which specify the objectives of the partnership, respective commitments of the partners, key performance indicators, and outputs to be delivered, including the identification of research and innovation activities that require support from Horizon 2020.

PPP main Implementation Vehicles An Association representing the "Private Side" http://5g-ppp.eu/about-us/ A Contractual Agreement (CA) Signed By Commissioner Kroes and Association representatives on 17 December 2017 Specifying Commitments on both side and agreed Key Performance Indicators (KPI's) The EU R&I Work-programme See ICT-14 text of http://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/data/ref/h2020/wp/201 4_2015/main/h2020-wp1415-leit-ict_en.pdf
Main Role of the Association Ex ante: define a Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) with sector actors at large Ex post: verify that implemented research contribute to target objectives and agreed KPI's Support to related policy aspects Monitor leveraging factors Key aspects: Transparency, openness, fairness. The Commission remains responsible for the implementation of the research programme cycle
5G PPP Specifics Focus on Communications infrastructure, with a beyond 2020 time line Strategic Research & Innovation Agenda defined through European Technology Platform: http://www.networks-etp.eu/ EU commits budget up to 700 milions for R&D&I funding for 5G between 2014 and 2020 (through Horizon 2020 programme) Private Side commits to leveraging investments (X5) and aiming at agreed KPIs EU provides policy support for 5G development (e.g. standardisation, spectrum planning, international consensus) 22
5G PPP Focus Addressing growing markets: Internet access Mobile data services Business data services Enabling new biz/soc scenarios Solving perceived limitations of network infrastructures EU contribution to the 5G global issues (multiple programmes now starting)
5G PPP KPIs (1/2) Business-related Private investments to leverage at least 5 times EU funding Target SME participation > 20% of the total public funding 40 % global market share in communication infrastructure Performance KPIs: 1000 times wireless area capacity + varied service capabilities Saving up to 90% of energy per service provided Reducing avg service creation time from 90 h to 90 min.
