Antecedentes

Open Innovation, Open Science, Open to the World
(22 June 2015)
Carlos Moedas
Commissioner for Research, Science and Innovation
A new start for Europe:
Opening up to an ERA of Innovation’ Conference

                                                    3
Horizonte 2020
 Los desafíos

   “We are too rarely succeeding in getting research results to
    market. Technologies developed in Europe are most of the time
    commercialised elsewhere”

   “Although Europe generates more scientific output than any other
    region in the world, in some areas we fall behind on the very best
    science. At the same time, there is a revolution happening in the
    way science works. Every part of the scientific method is becoming
    an open, collaborative and participative process”

   “Europe punches below its weight in international science and
    science diplomacy. Our collective scientific importance should be
    matched by a more active voice in global debates”
                                                                   4
EU INNOVATION

                5
Horizonte 2020

Las prioridades
  1. Open Innovation…

     …is about involving far more actors in the innovation
      process, from researchers, to entrepreneurs, to users, to
      governments and civil society. We need open innovation
      to capitalise on the results of European research and
      innovation. This means creating the right ecosystems,
      increasing investment, and bringing more companies
      and regions into the knowledge economy”

                                                             6
Horizonte 2020

Las prioridades
  2. Open Science…

     “…I am convinced that excellent science is the
      foundation of future prosperity, and that openness is the
      key to excellence. We are often told that it takes many
      decades for scientific breakthroughs to find commercial
      application”

     “Our ultimate goal should always be to promote
      excellence not only through ERC and Marie Skłodowska-
      Curie but throughout the entire H2020”

Las prioridades
  3. Openness to the World…

     “Europe is a global leader in science, and this
      should translate into a leading voice in global
      debates. To remain relevant and competitive, we
      need to engage more in science diplomacy and
      global scientific collaboration. It is not sufficient to
      only support collaborative projects; we need to
      enable partnerships between regions and
      countries” (¿more ERA-Net, JPIs, ETPs…?)

                                                                 9
Horizonte 2020

 Las propuestas…
   “Horizon 2020 has made a huge step forward in supporting
    innovation. I am very proud of this. But I also see that Europe does
    not yet have a world class scheme to support the very best
    innovations in the way that the European Research Council is the
    global reference for supporting excellent science”.

   “So I would like us to take stock of the various schemes to support
    innovation and SMEs under Horizon 2020, to look at best practice
    internationally, and to design a new European Innovation Council.
    This is not for tomorrow, but I believe we should discuss it as a major
    element under the mid term review of Horizon 2020”

                                                                         10

   The EIC should not lead to the creation of new structures at
    high additional cost. It would be better to reorganise the
    workings of existing bodies.
   The EIC should not be funded from the existing Horizon 2020
    budget.
   The EIC should bridge between the ERC (TRL 1 to 3) and
    venture capital and the EIB (TRL 7 and higher).
   Explore streamlining current support instruments, including
    abolishing or merging those which are too similar.
   The SME Instrument does what is needed, however you would
    need to scale it up. The funding should be linked directly to
    market success.
   If you want ambitious disruptive innovation, one needs to accept
    that they come with huge risks. For every success in such an
    investment we can expect maybe 20 or 30 failures.

                                                                 22

   Real disruptive, i.e. ground breaking innovation comes from
    basic/frontier research.
   The very innovative point of ERC is that it is focused on ONE
    person. If the EU wants to increase the number of unicorns, it
    should provide money to potential unicorns, not to
    consortiums.
   The EIC does not need to be a physical institution like the
    ERC or the EIT. The EIC would be better placed as a virtual
    institution acting as a signposting mechanism.
   The SME instrument together with the Fast Track to
    Innovation could well function as the core of EIC. They need
    more money, they should both be genuinely bottom-up, the
    calls should be constantly open, the procedures must be fast
    and easy..
   EIC operation: bottom-up approach with no thematic topics

                                                                23

       “Interaction between national and European R&I funding”
                       DE State Secretary , Dr Georg Schütte
         SE's ERA High-Level Workshop 2016 (Oslo, 2-3 May 2016)

 European added value will also play a role in shaping the European
  Innovation Council (EIC). According to our own analyses, there is no
  gap in the system of European innovation funding. The European
  funding system covers the entire spectrum of the Technology Readiness
  Level with a variety of instruments.

 The example of the EIC is currently making this clear. As I have already
  stated, we see no gap in European innovation funding which this could
  close. What are lacking, however, are the compatibility and the
  consistency of the instruments with one another.

                                                                      24

 Se reducen opciones por los obstáculos políticos:

    El nuevo Consejo saldría de la transformación gradual del
     Instrumento para PYMEs de H2020 (2.800 MEUR)

    EIC piloto en el período 2018-2020

    Sin temática predefinida, periodos de concesión más
     rápidos y financiación basada en subvención +
     instrumentos financieros

 Además:
   Las convocatorias de innovación se agruparían en una parte

   Creación de un consejo asesor de innovadores (emprendedores

   Estrecha colaboración del EIC con el EIT, el EIB y Eureka
