Under each theme there will be sufficient flexibility to address

Emerging needs Unforeseen policy needs

Support will be implemented across all themes throughCollaborative projects; Networks of Excellence; Coordination/support actionsJoint Technology Initiatives (In a limited number of cases ICT: Nano-electronics, Embedded Systems, …)Coordination (ERA-NET; ERA-NET+; Article 169)Community participation in national research programmes Efficiency of Art. 169 as the most appropriate means for achieving objectivesPresence of pre-existing national research programmesCritical mass (size and number of programmes/activities)Structural funds
