•WHY?
Research & InnovationResearch & Innovation
We need More Research Intensive Economies
Research & InnovationResearch & Innovation

Too few researchers per 1000 labour force
EU 6
US 9
Japan 11

Innovation Union34 commitments setting boundary conditions,Including:
Standardisation, public procurement and venture capital, a unified European patent
Quality of doctoral training and skills mix
International attractiveness and careers
Completing the European Research Area

ERA Priorities• 1) More effective national research
• 2) Cooperation and Competition
3) An Open Labour Market for Researchers
• 4) Gender Equality
• 5) Circulation of Knowledge
Research & InnovationResearch & Innovation
1) Open recruitment 2) Acces to and portability of grants3) Euraxess personalised information4) Structured doctoral training5) Career development 6) Industry Acadeæmia cooperation7) Recignition of degrees6) Social security & pensions8) Visas and permits
An Open Labour Market for Researchers

Principles forInnovative Doctoral Training
• 1) Research Excellence
• 2) Attractive Institutional Environment
• 3) Interdisciplinary Research Options• 4) Exposure to industry and other relevant• employment sectors• 5) International networking• 6) Transferable skills training• 7) Quality Assurance

In short: Doctoral Training should become:« Triple i »
• International
• Interdisciplinary
• Intersectoral
Research & InnovationResearch & Innovation
Wide Endorsement
20
• Council Counclusions:"Link, where relevant and appropriate, national funding to the Principles for Innovative Doctoral Training"
• Research Stakeholders Organisations MoUs: develop in line with Principles
• Subject specific: ORPHEUS/AMSE/WFE

Marie Skłodowska-Curie Action
'Institutions with Innovative concepts'
Voluntary all across
Innovative Doctoral Training in Horizon 2020
Research & InnovationResearch & Innovation
The New 'Scientific Visa'Facilitates the procedure of admitting third-country nationals for the purpose of research, studies, pupil exchange, remunerated and unremunerated training, voluntary service and au pairing.
Building on the existing Directives 2005/71/EC and 2004/114/EC.
Research & InnovationResearch & Innovation
More Rights For 3C Nationals• Equal status to that of nationals in terms of pay and working
conditions, access to goods and services, recognition of professional qualifications and social security
• A residence permit may be granted to family members for the duration of the researcher’s residence permit. Family members will be allowed to work
• The researcher can take up a teaching position
• Upon finalisation of their research project researchers will be allowed to remain in the Member State to look for work for a period of 12 months
• You Can Move Around (up to 6 months without a new hosting agreement)
Research & InnovationResearch & Innovation
Smoother cooperation of national funds(long term solution for all)
European Pension Fund for Researchers (for ambitious employers of researchers)
Pension Solutions
Research & InnovationResearch & Innovation
Horizon 2020 - What is new?• 80 billion euro (Commission proposal)
• A single programme bringing together three separate programmes/initiatives
• Coupling research to innovation – from research to retail, all forms of innovation
• Focus on societal challenges facing EU society, e.g. health, clean energy and transport
• Continuation of investment in frontier research
• Simplified access, for all companies, universities, institutes in all EU countries and beyond.

Horizon 2020 - Three priorities:
1. Excellent science
2. Industrial leadership
3. Societal challenges
Research & InnovationResearch & Innovation
29
Industrial Leadership and Competitive Frameworks
− Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies (ICT, nano, materials, bio, manufacturing, space)
− Access to risk finance
− Innovation in SMEs
Excellent Science Base− European Research Council− Future and Emerging Technologies− Marie Curie actions on skills, training and career development− Research infrastructures
Shared objectives and principles
Common rules, toolkit of funding schemes
Supporting the objectives:

European InnovationPartnerships
To accelerate and scale up the development and deployment of innovative solutions to major societal challenges …
•Acting across the whole research and innovation chain • mobilising a wide group of stakeholders across supply and
demand
•Adding value to existing instruments and initiatives• existing initiatives are keeping their own identity and lifecycle
and are contributing to the aims of the EIP
