SMEs in FP7:Optimal participation
Reduce barriers to participation
– simplification
– fewer funding schemes; more flexibility and freedom
Take account of SME needs in thematic area content
Participation potential varies by programme and theme
This presentation shall neither be binding nor construed as constituting a commitment by the European Commission
Simplification of procedures
Measures proposed:
Rationalising the funding schemes
– simpler set of funding instruments
Avoiding red-tape!
– less bureaucratic and more user-friendly languages
Reducing
– number and size of documents
– number of requests to participants
This presentation shall neither be binding nor construed as constituting a commitment by the European Commission
Funding Schemes…
Based on calls for proposals
– collaborative projects, coordination and support actions
– combined as appropriate
To support actions implemented through Council and European Parliament decisions
– basis of article 171
– through the specific programme decisions,
– mobilise national funding, FP, SF, loans from EIB, etc.

Involve all stakeholders (incl. industry) in research
Respond quickly to emerging research needs
This presentation shall neither be binding nor construed as constituting a commitment by the European Commission
Food, agriculture and biotechnology
research:Rationale
Biotechnology and food companies / SMEs need to be competitive on the world market (‘European Strategy on Life Sciences and Biotechnology’)
Society demands safer and healthier food
Renewable resources and biomass for non-food applications helps reducing dependence on hydrocarbon-based economy
Society demands sustainable and eco-efficient production methods in agriculture/fishery/forestry
International cooperation ensures optimal exploitation of resources and application of results
