General objec,ve: The Na,onal Innova,on System’s strengthening through interna,onal coopera,on with the European Union.
• Strategy 1. Increase the country's technological and innova4on capabili4es through the interna4onaliza4on of Mexican S&T groups in Europe
• Strategy 2. Boost Mexican resources with European resources (cri4cal mass, infrastructure, funding ini4a4ves)
• Strategy 3. Increase the Scien4fics' and Technologists’ level through mobility between Mex-‐UE
• Strategy 4. Development of excellence technological management competencies and administra4ve prac4ces
• Strategy 5. Leadership and S&T ac4vi4es coordina4on within the La4n-‐American region
• Agreement for Economic Associa,on, Policy Dialogue and Coopera,on between Mexico and the European Union (2000):
• Ar,cle 29: Science and technology
• Agreement for Scien,fic and Technological Coopera,on between Mexico and European Union (2005-‐2010):
• Renewed in September 2010 (for the period 2010 – 2015)
• Joint Steering Commi]ee Mex-‐UE for ST&I:
• Directorate-‐General for Research and Innova,on (EU)
• Na,onal Council for Science of Technology (Mex)
Legal framework / policy and technical dialogue
• Why are we interested in the coopera,on with the European Union; which benefits or advantages represents to Mexico?
Access to high level scien4fic and innova4on networks, through the par4cipa4on
in joint ac4ons and projects (FONCICYT 15.5 M€; Nano coordinated call 11 M€)
Access to financial resources for the development of projects (FP7-‐ 50 mil M€; Nano
coordinated call 11 M€; FONCICYT 15.5 M€…) BeVer results of the research outputs in terms of its impact in society and in the
economy (technology transfer; applicaGon of the research outcomes …) Mobility of high talented human resources (Marie Curie acGons)
• Why are we interested in the coopera,on with the European Union; which benefits or advantages represents to Mexico?
Visibility of the Mexican scien4fic and technological ac4vi4es in Europe
(cooperaGon website with Europe, NewsleMers, seminars and events…) It contribute to increase the technological content of the industrial ac4vity
(linkages between industry and academy; technological transfer; inserGon of researchers and technologists in the enterprises…)
Exchange of informa4on and best prac4ces to design or improve programs and
have recommenda4ons for public policies (Bilateral Steering CommiMee; joint evaluaGon of projects)
T o par4cipate and coordinate regional ini4a4ves; for the La4namerican –
European rela4onship (negoGaGon of calls for LA prioriGes; ALC-‐UE Summit…)
Mechanism to link the Mexican and European scien0fic and technological communi0es; informa0on and promo0ng pla?orm about the opportuni0es for the
development of collabora0ve projects…

In a global perspec,ve (7°FP + FONCICYT + bilateral calls) There is a huge poten4al of ST&I coopera4on between Mexico and the European Union The Mexican and European communi4es have demonstrated high interest and capaci4es to cooperate as peers in the overall ac4vi4es of ST&I The current instruments have been an excellent tool to discover and mobilize this prosperous poten4al technological coopera4on
There is a proven demand of both region communi4es for research and innova4on joint programs:
ICT sector for more than 200 million of Euros (strategic target area for interna,onal coopera,on)
General conclusions of the ST&I coopera,on
