② Public Procurement of Innovation (PPI): purchase of innovative solutions available (or partly available) on the market (new for the procurer)

③ Pre-commercial procurement

is a phased approach of purchasing R&D services by procurers for the development of innovative products, services or processes (not yet available on the market) by enterprises/ research centres with as goal: • To solve socio-economic challenges• To improve the performance, functionality of public services
