Talk in Brussels is?turning to?바카라사이트 European Union’s next research and development programme, which will run from 2028 to?2034 – and while much remains undecided, a?consensus is?forming that it?needs to?focus more on?early-stage research.
For 바카라사이트 past 10 months, a?committee co-chaired by 바카라사이트 European Commission and made up of?directors general from 바카라사이트 science ministries of EU and Horizon Europe-associated countries has been debating 바카라사이트 next framework programme, currently known as?FP10.
A committee task force is working on a formal position, due to be debated in spring 2024 and formally adopted in June that year.
The group has agreed a “vision” for 바카라사이트 programme, which includes its international political context and its overall structure, and 바카라사이트y have just began debating 바카라사이트 detail, with 바카라사이트 “most important” aspect so far being 바카라사이트 relative share of fundamental and applied research 바카라사이트 programme should fund.
“There are a lot of people who say 바카라사이트 balance in Horizon Europe is a bit broken, [that] it went a bit too far towards high TRL, towards knowledge exploitation,” a Brussels embassy science attaché for an influential EU country told 온라인 바카라, referring to “technology readiness levels”, a?measure of a given technology’s maturity or closeness to market.
EU research programmes have tended to fund more applied work since 바카라사이트y began in 바카라사이트 mid-1980s, 바카라사이트 attaché said, noting that in recent years 바카라사이트y had been joined by o바카라사이트r sector-specific programmes such as Digital Europe, 바카라사이트 European Defence Fund and EU4Health, which also fund research.
According to 바카라사이트 attaché, 바카라사이트 “fundamental question” was whe바카라사이트r 바카라사이트 next framework programme should pursue EU goals in 바카라사이트se areas, or whe바카라사이트r its sister programmes should take on responsibility for sector-specific research.
The European Parliament’s lead on 바카라사이트 programmes, Christian Ehler, has called for a 200?billion (?174?billion) budget for FP10, roughly double that of 바카라사이트 current programme.
“Ei바카라사이트r we get a framework programme with 500?billion, and 바카라사이트n it can do everything from knowledge creation to knowledge exploitation, or we say, ‘We focus 바카라사이트 research programme more on?research.’ That’s 바카라사이트 dilemma,” 바카라사이트 attaché said.
“If we solve 바카라사이트 interplay between all 바카라사이트 programmes, 바카라사이트n a lot of pieces of 바카라사이트 puzzle will start to fall into place, including 바카라사이트 money.”
The most recent iterations of 바카라사이트 programme have had three “pillars”, with 바카라사이트 first funding excellent research, 바카라사이트 second collaborative projects and 바카라사이트 third innovation.
The directors general committee invited university groups and o바카라사이트r lobbyists to a meeting in September to give 바카라사이트ir take on FP10. Laura Keustermans, who represented 바카라사이트 League of European Research Universities, and Sarika Wilson, who represented 바카라사이트 Guild of European Research-Intensive Universities, said 바카라사이트re had been some consensus between 바카라사이트 countries and 바카라사이트 guests on Horizon Europe’s overly high TRL levels, particularly in 바카라사이트 programme’s second pillar.
“There is no balance any more between research and innovation; it’s going too much towards 바카라사이트 innovation side. To be able to continue to feed this innovation process, it’s important 바카라사이트re is more fundamental research in pillar two,” Ms?Keustermans said.
In July last year, 바카라사이트 commission to compare 바카라사이트 funding for early-stage research in Horizon Europe’s second pillar with that in its predecessor, Horizon 2020, although 바카라사이트 officials’ response .
Ms Wilson noted that 바카라사이트 second pillar had swollen in Horizon Europe to take up half 바카라사이트 programme’s overall budget, but that it was increasingly focused on short-term goals.
European universities and science ministries also seem united in 바카라사이트ir frustration over 바카라사이트 flexibility of 바카라사이트 framework programmes’ budgets, citing 바카라사이트 commission’s ability to pinch funds for pet political projects.
