4 International cooperation Simplified access General Structure of Horizon 2020 Europe 2020 priorities Shared objectives and principles Common rules, toolkit of funding schemes Tackling Societal Challenges Health, demographic change and wellbeing Food security, sustainable agriculture and the bio-based economy Secure, clean and efficient energy Smart, green and integrated transport Climate action & Resource Efficiency including Raw Materials Inclusive, innovative and secure societies 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 Supporting the objectives: European Institute for Innovation and Technology Joint Research Centre European Research Area Dissemination & knowledge transfer Joint Meeting MSG - EPTR

5 Features of Horizon years duration ( ) Focused on societal challenges, but takes into account competitiveness Recognises modal specifities Fewer and modified funding schemes More flat rates Acceptance of various accounting practices Covering research and innovation Joint Meeting MSG - EPTR

6 Features of Horizon Strong focus on involvement of programme committees in discussions on strategic planning More joint activities between the different Specific Programmes New SME-instrument (goal: 15% to SMEs overall) only SMEs can apply (even as single participant) 2 stages: 1 feasibility check, 2 main project phase Joint Meeting MSG - EPTR

7 Transport as Societal Challenge The challenge is to achieve a European transport system that is resource-efficient, environmentallyfriendly, safe and seamless for the benefit of the citizens, the economy and the society 4 activity lines Resource Efficient Transport that Respects Environment Better Mobility, Less Congestion, More Safety and Security Global Leadership for the European Transport Industry Evidence Based Transport Policy for the Long Term Joint Meeting MSG - EPTR

8 RESOURCE EFFICIENT TRANSPORT THAT RESPECTS THE ENVIRONMENT cleaner, quieter aircraft, vehicles, vessels - cleaner propulsion technologies - use of low emission alternative energies - lighter aircraft, vehicles, vessels smart equipment and infrastructure improved transport and mobility in urban areas SUSTAINABLE Joint Meeting MSG - EPTR 4

9 BETTER MOBILITY, LESS CONGESTION, MORE SAFETY AND SECURITY substantial reduction of traffic congestion improved mobility of people and freight - air traffic management - waterborne: integrated planning and management - rail and road: optimisation of network management new concepts of freight transport and logistics reducing accidents and casualties, improving security SEAMLESS Joint Meeting MSG - EPTR 5

10 GLOBAL LEADERSHIP FOR THE EUROPEAN TRANSPORT INDUSTRY next generation of transport means - aircraft, trains, vehicles, vessels; propulsion units, control systems on board, smart control systems - vehicle/infrastructure communication advanced production processes - design and manuf. techniques: production, maintenance, recycling new transport concepts - innovative transport systems, incl. automated vehicles COMPETITIVE Joint Meeting MSG - EPTR 6

11 SOCIO-ECONOMIC RESEARCH AND FORWARD LOOKING ACTIVITIES FOR POLICY MAKING actions to support policy analysis and development user behaviour, social acceptance, mobility patterns business models impact of policy measures long term scenarios and prospective studies transport and spatial planning accessibility issues transport economics Joint Meeting MSG - EPTR 7
