Introducing H2020

Brief overview of H2020

H2020 newsletter

Schemes most relevant to MVLS

‘... you can’t please all of the people all of the time’ (Abe Lincoln)

31.73% = €24.441b 22.09% = €17.016b 38.53% = €29.679b

Topics not covered today

• Pillar 1: Infrastructures & FET• All Pillar 2 Industrial Leadership• Pillar 3: 4 Societal challenges• SME instrument• Research-related actions– Innovation actions– Coordination and support actions– ERA-NET Cofund– Procurement Actions

H2020 - Societal Challenges

H2020 Research & Innovation Actions – these are Collaborative Research Projects Description: Action primarily consisting of activities aiming to establish new knowledge and/or to explore the feasibility of a new or improved technology, product, process, service or solution. For this purpose they may include basic and applied research, technology development and integration, testing and validation on a small-scale prototype in a laboratory or simulated environment.

H2020 calls compared with FP7

• Fewer calls and topics• Generally broader; range of approaches• Challenge-based approach – innovative

solutions• Multi-disciplinary and cross-sectoral

Societal Challenges - general
