Why is ICT important?
Engine of progress- sector growing faster than economy
Not just luxury gadgets- part of everyone’s life
5
ICT boosts productivity
•Investment in ICT generates a bigger return to productivity growth•than most other forms of capital investment.

European Commission, 2011
A 10% increase in the broadband penetration rate results in 1 to 1.5% increase in annual GDP per-capita. Faster broadband = higher GDP growth. (Czernich et al. -
University of Munich, 2009)

What is Horizon 2020?
• Commission proposal for an 80 billion € R&I funding programme (2014-20)
• Part of proposals for next EU budget, complementing Structural Funds, education, etc.
• A core part of Europe 2020, Innovation Union & European Research Area
20
Horizon 2020 objectives
• Respond to the economic crisis investing in future jobs and growth
• Addressing peoples’ concerns about their livelihoods, safety and environment
• Strengthening the EU’s global position in research, innovation and technology
21
What's new?• A single programme bringing together three separate
programmes/initiatives*• More innovation, from research to retail, all forms of
innovation• Focus on societal challenges facing EU society, e.g.
health, clean energy and transport• Simplified access, for all companies, universities,
institutes in all EU countries and beyond.
*The 7th research Framework Programme (FP7), innovation aspects of Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme (CIP), EU contribution to the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT)
22
Horizon 2020Key ideas
• Better articulation of research and innovation• Strengthened support for high-tech SMEs• Greater flexibility and responsiveness (open, light & fast)• Dialogue with Venture Capital
• More innovation-oriented mindset• Reaching out to non-traditional actors• More bottom-up, grass-roots experimentation• More risk taking
• Seamless funding from idea to market
