Alkusanat
  • EUssa teknologian kieli on englanti.
  • Jos tekee projektiehdotuksen suomeksi tai vaikka
    ranskaksi, se käännätetään Euroopan komission
    toimesta englanniksi ? virheitä ja
    väärinkäsityksiä ? ei menestystä.
  • Tästä syystä tämäkin esitys on englanniksi.
  • Tärkeimmät asiakirjat ovat kuitenkin saatavilla
    myös suomeksi osoitteessa http//europa.eu.int/com
    m/research/fp6/documents_en.html. Suomenkielistä
    opastusta löytyy myös Tekesin sivuilta
    osoitteesta http//www.tekes.fi/eu/index.html.
  • Tammikuussa valmistuu myös allekirjoittaneen
    toimesta rakennus- ja kiinteistöklusterin
    käyttöön suomenkielinen opas Eurooppalaiset
    teknologiaohjelmat 2003.

Construction and CREC
  • In the EU construction represents 11 of the
    total GDP,
  • and
  • CREC nearly 30 of the same GDP!

4
EU6RTD (1)European Research Area - ERA
  • EU6RTD is aimed at contributing towards the
    creation of the European Research Area ERA,
    described below (17 directly for ERA).

National RD Programmes
European Research Area - ERA
National Research Organisations JRC
Open Cooperation Coordination
EU6RTD and other European RD
5
EU6RTD (2) Interesting themes for CREC
  • The EUs 6th Framework Programme for Research and
    Technological Development EU6RTD offers 17,500
    MEUR for European RTD projects in 2002-06. The
    most interesting thematic priorities for the CREC
    are the following (final, as approved by the
    European Parliament and the Council Jun 2002)
  • 1.1.2 Information society technologies 3,625
    MEUR
  • 1.1.3 Nanotechnologies and nanosciences,
  • knowledge-based multifunctional materials and

    new production processes and
    devices 1,300 MEUR
  • 1.1.6 Sustainable development, global change and
    ecosystems 2,120 MEUR
  • Sustainable energy systems 810 MEUR
  • Sustainable surface transport 610 MEUR
  • Global change and ecosystems 700 MEUR

6
EU6RTD (3)Specific Programmes (1)
  • Specific Programmes add flesh on the bones
    information to the EU6RTD. The most interesting
    priorities for the CREC are the following (final,
    as approved by the Council late September 2002)
  • Integrating and strengthening the European
    Research Area - ERA
  • 1.1.2. Information society technologies
  • (i) Applied IST research addressing major
    societal and economic challenges
  • 1.1.3. Nano-technologies and nano-sciences,
    knowledge-based multifunctional materials and new
    production processes and devices
  • (ii) Knowledge-based multifunctional materials
  • (iii) New production processes and devices

7
EU6RTD (4)Specific Programmes (2)
  • 1.1.6. Sustainable development, global change and
    ecosystems
  • 1.1.6.1. Sustainable energy systems
  • 1.1.6.2. Sustainable surface transport
  • 1.1.6.3. Global change and ecosystems
  • 1.2.2. Horizontal research activities involving
    SMEs
  • (i) Collective research
  • (ii) Cooperative research
  • The specific programmes as well as other
    documents can be found at http//europa.eu.int/co
    mm/research/fp6/documents_en.html in all EU
    languages. Myös suomeksi.

EU6RTD (5)Work Programmes
  • Work Programmes are documents containing more
    detailed descriptions of the Specific Programmes.
    For project proposal preparation Work Programmes
    are the most important documents.
  • Work Programmes will be prepared and issued by
    the Commission alone.
  • Work Programmes are said to be drafted after the
    results of the EoI call for important RD topics
    (closed date 07 June 2002) will be available.
    These (some 11,700 EoIs) are now publicly
    available.
  • No drafts for Work Programmes are publicly
    available yet. They are supposed to be finalised
    by the end of November 2002 latest.

EU6RTD (6) Project Types Instruments (1)
  • Integrated Projects - IP
  • Clearly defined development objectives
  • Typically industry-led project
  • Duration 3-5 years
  • Magnitude gt50 MEUR
  • EU funding max 50
  • Networks of Excellence - NoE
  • Advancing research and integrating the activities
    of the consortium partners on a particular
    research topic and spread excellence
  • Research centre/university-led project 100-500
    researchers
  • Duration over 5 years plus continuation
    thereafter without EU funding
  • Magnitude gt10 MEUR
  • EU funding as per the number of researchers, max
    25

10
EU6RTD (7) Project Types Instruments (2)
  • Specific Targeted Research Projects STRP
  • Similar to earlier RTD projects
  • Typically industry-led project
  • Duration 2-4 years
  • Magnitude 2-10 MEUR
  • EU funding max 50
  • This is what was required by European Council of
    Civil Engineers - ECCE and several EU member
    states.

11
EU6RTD (8) Project Types Instruments (3)
  • Specific research projects for SMEs any topic
  • Cooperative research - CRAFT as before EU
    funding max 50.
  • Collective research Medium-term research
    activities carried out by technical research
    centres for industrial associations or industry
    groupings in entire sectors of industry dominated
    by SMEs at the European level EU funding max
    50.
  • The ITRE Committee of the European Parliament
    proposed that Exploratory Award (valmisteluraha
    25,000 50,000 EUR) should be returned into
    EU6RTD, as required by European Council of Civil
    Engineers ECCE. The parliament, however, gave
    up after compromise negotiations.

12
EU6RTD (9) Project Types Instruments (4)
  • Other instruments available, not described here
    in more details, are
  • National programmes carried out jointly - Article
    169 By governments or national research
    organisations and industries. Apparently for no
    good use.
  • Networking of national programmes ERA-Nets to be
    implemented as specific support action (for
    preparation) and/or coordination action
    (running) see below.
  • Specific support actions Similar to earlier
    accompanying measures.
  • Coordination actions Similar to earlier thematic
    networks and concerted actions.

13
EU6RTD (10)Participation Rules
  • Partners At least three (3) independent partners
    established in three (3) different member or
    associated state. In practice, for a successful
    IP or NoE partners from several (gt10) states are
    needed.
  • Two-stage procedure (For IP and NoE) calls for
    proposals may involve a two-stage evaluation
    procedure. In this case, following a positive
    evaluation of an outline proposal in the first
    stage, the proposers concerned shall be requested
    to submit a complete proposal in the second
    stage.
  • Small and medium size enterprise SME
  • less than 250 employees
  • no more than 40 MEUR annual turnover or no more
    than 27 MEUR annual balance sheet total (may
    change...)
  • less than 25 of the capital or voting rights is
    owned by big enterprise(s), except public
    investment corporations (eg banks, venture
    capital, SITRA)

14
EU6RTD (11) Timetable
  • As the European Parliament, the Council (of
    Ministers) and the European Commission achieved a
    compromise about the basic EU6RTD, Specific
    programmes and Participation rules it looks like
    the first calls could open 15 Dec 2002 with a
    closing date of 15 Mar 2003. This call is
    principally for stage 1 ? outline proposals.
  • For stage 2 ? complete proposals a subsequent
    closing date of 31 July 2003 is envisaged.

CREC-related EoIs (1)
  • Over 11,700 EoI - Expression of Interest were
    received by the European Commission by 07 Jun
    2002 targeting at EU6RTD. They are now publicly
    available at http//www.cordis.lu/fp6/eoi-analysis
    .htm.
  • e-CORE - European Construction Research Network
    project, headed by CSTC BE, has compiled a list
    of CREC-related EoIs (see http//www.e-core.org/fr
    ames/index_database_eoi.html). Their total number
    is 311 EoIs (3 of total). Yet, 166 only are
    described on the above website.
  • In the Brokerage Event on CREC-related topics
    03-04 Oct 2002, Brussels BE, 82 selected EoIs

18
Actions towards EU6RTD
  • In the Brokerage Event aforesaid, an idea was to
    develop 15-20 IP and/or NoE proposals out of 311
    EoIs listed, actually 82 EoIs discussed. No
    report on this work, however, is to be prepared.
  • Villa Real participated in 4 EoIs and is taking
    part in 1 IP proposal on Sustainable City as an
    active contributive partner (plus in 2 other as
    a sleeping partner).
  • What to do next?
  • IP and EoI (1) study the list of EoIs, carefully
    (2) select the most interesting ones, (3) contact
    the coordinator to find out if an actual proposal
    is under preparation and (4) express your
    willingness to join the consortium.
  • STRP and SMEs Prepare your own proposals on new
    ideas requiring further development or to solve
    existing problems, and then select suitable
    partners (total 5-8) for its implementation.
