Call for Feedback to shape the EU's next R&I Framework Programme:
Report on Mission-Oriented R&I in the EU
 

Mission-Oriented Research & Innovation in the European Union

 

The European Commission invites you to provide feedback on the Mission-Oriented Research & Innovation in the European Union - A problem-solving approach to fuel innovation-led growth  report by Tuesday, 3 April 2018.

Yesterday, the report was presented by Professor Mariana Mazzucato to Carlos Moedas, Commissioner for Research, Science and Innovation. It is the latest in a series of input the Commission will consider in shaping the post-Horizon 2020 EU R&I framework programme.

The report recommends 5 key criteria for the selection of missions at EU level. They must:

  • Be bold and inspirational, with wide societal relevance
  • Be ambitious, but with realistic research and innovation actions
  • Foster cross-disciplinary, cross-sectoral and cross-actor innovation
  • Set a clear direction: targeted, measurable and time-bound
  • Require multiple, bottom-up solutions

Find out more here and consult the set of slides, briefly summarising the content of the report.

The call for feedback takes only 5 - 10 minutes to complete and is available until Tuesday 3 April 2018.
