The Framework Programmes
EU direct support programmes for research and innovation:
Multi-annual
Multi-thematic (e.g. health, energy, environment, transport)
Focused on activities where the EU can add value compared to
action taken purely at Member State level
Focused to a large extent on cross-border collaborative
(participants from at least 3 different Member States/Associated
Countries) multi-disciplinary research (except e.g. ERC, Marie
Curie: single country)
Participation by universities, research institutes, enterprises
(except e.g. ERC, Marie Curie: individuals)
Funds competitively allocated through international peer review

TOWARDS FP9:
Key findings from the H2020 INTERIM EVALUATION
KEY AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT
Underfunding
Has lower success rates than FP7, esp. for high quality
proposals.
Support for market-creating innovation
Demonstrates potential for breakthrough, market-creating
innovation, but it should be strengthened substantially.
Greater outreach to civil society
Should better explain the impacts of R&I, and involve even
more the users & citizens in agenda-setting & implementation.

TOWARDS FP9:
THE ECONOMIC CASE OF R&I
Companies with
innovative products
generate
30%-40%
of new jobs in
manufacturing
(Harrison et al 2014)
62% of growth in Europe
from
1995 to 2007 derives from R&I
(NESTA, 2013)
An
increase in R&D investment
of
0.2% of GDP
can lead to an
increase of 1.1% of GDP,
i.e.
five-fold
in
absolute
terms
(Donselaar and Koopmans, 2016)
Creation of
new and more
productive
jobs
Positive &
significant
impact of R&I
on productivity
and growth
Impact of
Framework
Programmes
Economic growth:
contribution of a
0.15% annual
GDP growth
until
2030 (FP7 ex post
evaluation, 2016)
Large rates
of return on
business
R&I
investments
Substantial
economic
impacts of
public R&D
On average, the net
benefits
for
a company that
invests 100 € in
R&D
are
20 €,
and
up to 54 €
for R&D intensive companies (Hall
et al, 2010)
The
rate of return to public R&D
is
estimated to be
around 20%,
i.e. for
every 100 € of public R&D funding, the
net benefit is of 20 € (Sveikaucas 2012,
Haskel et al. 2014, Georghiou 2015)
