European innovation partnerships
� Public and private actors to tackle big societal
challenges whilst creating new business
opportunities for EU industry
� To remove bottlenecks stopping good ideas
from being translated into innovative product
and services
• SIP – Strategic Implementation Plan
• Working by Action Groups
• Participation as individuals
• No EIP funds or reimbursement

EU Politics
EU Legislation
EU research priorities
Relevant EIPs
� EIP - Agricultural Productivity and Sustainability
• promoting productivity and efficiency of the
agricultural sector (reversing the recent trend
of diminishing productivity gains by 2020)
• promoting sustainability of agriculture
(securing soil functionality at a satisfactory
level by 2020).
• http://ec.europa.eu/agriculture/eip/
Relevant EIPs
� EIP – WATER• to promote collaborative processes for change and
innovation in the water sector across the public and
private sector, non-governmental organisations and
the general public
• http://ec.europa.eu/environment
/water/innovationpartnership/
Relevant EIPs
� EIP Raw Materials• promote innovation along the entire value chain of
raw materials
• ensure the sustainable supply of raw materials to the EU economy
• reducing Europe's import dependency on the raw materials that are critical to Europe's industries
• http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/policies/raw-materials/innovation-partnership/index_en.htm
Joint Programming Initiatives
� Suitable Joint Programming areas are identified by a High Level Group on Joint Programming
� bottom-up approach and high-level commitment from Member States, coordinating national programmes.
� For each initiative, participating countries will start with:
• Voluntary participation of MS
• JPI Governance
• Developing a shared vision for the area;
• Defining a Strategic Research Agenda (SRA) and SMART objectives (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant,
Time-Bound);
• Implementation of the SRA, assessing expected impacts and defining the best mix of instruments to be used.
• EU funding to manage the JPI: no funds for research � RESEARCH FUNDED BY MS (in relation to their
commitment, funds, rules and selection).
• Lunching calls: PILOT ACTIONS • Neurodegenerative Diseases/Alzheimer‘s
• Agriculture, food security and climate change (FACCE)
• A healthy diet for a healthy life (HDHL)
• Cultural heritage & global change
• Urban Europe
• CliK'EU
• More years, better lives
• Antimicrobial resistance
• Water challenges
• Healthy & productive seas and oceans
All different!
