5 EFIS for Poland Poland will receive 82,5 bln. This money will be spent to implement the Europe 2020 Strategy. A sum of 8,7 bln has been assigned to be spent under R+D+I programs. Priority activites: development of R+D+I projects, implementation of research results into economy, intersectoral collaboration, internationalisation of Polish science, technology transfer, enhancing capacities of R+D+I personnel, international and intersectoral PhD studies, competitiveness of innovative SMEs. 5

6 R&I-related investments under Structural Funds POIG R&I infrastructure (axe 2.0): Total cost: 6.7B PLN (~1.6B ) EU contribution: 5.7B PLN (~1.35B ) The biggest investments in NMBP area (total cost): EIT+: CePT: 500Mpln (~119M ) 359Mpln (~85.5M ) CEZAMAT: 355Mpln (~84.5M ) CENT: 293Mpln (~69.7M )

7 Synergies between Horizon 2020 and ESIF WHY? HOW? WHAT? 7

8 WHY shall we go for synergies between Horizon 2020 and ESIF? Enhancing scientific excellence and competitiveness in regions Support internationalisation of science and innovation Build connectivity: more widespread national and transnational networking and involvement in expert groups. Support the smart specialisation process Ensure the use of ressources infrastructure in particular. Enhance experience and management skills: the more often institutions participate in FPs, the more likely is repeated and higher level participation in the future. Increase PL participation in H2020

9 HOW: Identified needs at EU level supporting synergy process Regulations on state aid rules is harmonisation between Horizon 2020 and ESIF in that part possible? Clear rules for fostering the synergy process providing frames how far can we simplify/ harmonise? Orientation towards the use of existing infrastructure developed due to ESIF in Widening actions including the use of existing R+D+I infrastraucture as part of impact assesment. Strengthening of measures to encourage inclusion of new partners in particular from EU13, in order to utilize the whole potential of ERA (i.e. via facilitating the openness/ inclusiveness of existing networks, dedicated calls, increasing Widening package, impact/ evaluation criteria). There is a necessity to consider measures to mitigate the researcher s remuneration gap between new and old MSs (following a general rule - to apply regular national remuneration rules; introducing as an option MSCA system of unit costs). 9

10 HOW: Identified needs at national level supporting synergy process Defining a strategy with clear goals to be achieved in H at the national, regional and institutional level. Development of national ecosystem for innovation compatible with the EU system (EIC, PSF, unification of rules, strengthening Polish Technology Platforms, sectoral programmes coupled with JTIs, European Charter and Code for Researchers, programme management). Increase investment in R&I - in quality and mobility, active R&D personnel scientific leaders, policy experts, RM&A. Re-industralization - technology-based industry specialisations. Foster the process of implementation of smart specialisation strategies. Active involvement at European level (networks, AGs, evaluation panels). More attractive research environment - activation of the entire scientific community.

11 HOW: Strategy on the Responsible Development Initiatives by Ministry of Economic Development 1. Working group dedicated to elaborate the strategic approach towards effective use of funds i.e. horizontal, ESIF and national funds Participants: all stakeholders - Ministry of Economic Development, Ministry of Science and Higher Education, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Infrastructure, executive agencies dealing with R+D+I and entrepreneurship, NCP Poland, other contact points etc 2. Forum on simplification of ESIF rules dedicated to application, evaluation and implementation of ESIF instruments Participants: Ministry of Science and Higher Education, regional authorities, social partners, NCP Poland, etc 11

12 WHAT: Synergies at the programming level (1) Horizon 2020 Teaming for Excellence ESIF International Research Agendas Horizon 2020 Teaming for Excellence Part of Spreading Excellence and Widening Participation Create R&D excellent institutions in Widening countries Funding for ca. 20 new Teaming Centers* (15 mln Euros) Formal requirement of national contribution to the Center in the Phase 2 ESIF International Research Agendas Operational Programme Smart Growth Autonomus excellent centres in PL created in strategic partnership with foreign excellent partner institutions Funding for ca. 10 new IRA centres within (12.5 mln Euros) Fast Track for Teaming projects funded under Phase 1 for the budget under Phase 2 12

13 WHAT: Synergies at the programming level (2) Horizon 2020 Teaming for Excellence ESIF International Research Agendas Step I: Pre-selection process of PL Centres of Excellence aiming to apply under Teaming Phase 1 Step II: Granting selected proposals with letter of intent signed by the Minister of Science and Higher Education Step III: Application of CoE to Teaming Phase 1 Step IV: Application of Teaming Phase 1 selected projects to the International Research Agenda Scheme for complementary funding under Phase 2 promese of funding in case of successful Phase 2

22 HOW: Strategy on the Responsible Development Determining the national strategy on effective and synergetic use of ressources avaliable; Create an eco-system of collaboration between institutions dealing with ESIF, national/ regional funds and horizontal EU programmes; Using ESIF to improve PL participation in Horizon 2020 and other horizontal EU programmes (COSME, CEF, Creative Europe, JTIs, etc.) reaching 2% by 2020; Enhance Polish involvement at the EU level; Implement simplification in regard to the rules for applications, eligibility criteria, audits etc. between funds. Avoiding overlapp in regard to the topics covered and harmonisation of scheduled 22
