SUMMARY:Horizon Europe: Decoding the Strategic Technologies for Europe Platform Private S|B Network FP Working Group webinar
DESCRIPTION:Now in its final stages of approval at institutional level\, the Strategic Technologies for Europe Platform (STEP) is one of the most discussed initiatives supporting the development of critical technologies in Europe. The STEP would introduce a “sovereignty seal” for projects deemed worthy of receiving EU funds\, driving public and private investment towards ideas aiding the EU’s strategic autonomy agenda in technological development. But how will this work in real life? And what is the STEP’s impact on the various streams of EU funding and their planned priorities? Science|Business will discuss these and more themes with relevant EU officials in this members-only webinar.

SUMMARY:1st European Science Diplomacy Conference – Towards a European Approach to Science Diplomacy
DESCRIPTION:In view of the increasing complexity and interconnectedness of global challenges\, pressures on global commons\, the impact of emerging technologies\, and not least the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine\, science diplomacy plays an ever-greater role\, also in view of the EU’s open strategic autonomy and technological sovereignty. \nIn light of this\, it is essential to mobilise all available tools for the EU to achieve its goals and defend its interests in a coordinated way to enhance the impact of the EU’s actions at the global level. In this regard\, the Global Approach to Research and Innovation\, Europe’s strategy for international cooperation in a changing world also highlights a stronger focus on science diplomacy. \nIn its conclusions on the Global Approach\, and on the future governance of the European Research Area (ERA)\, the Council called for the development of a European Science Diplomacy Agenda. Consequently\, discussions on science diplomacy are ongoing\, both at institutional level and with relevant stakeholders\, with a view of developing a framework for European Science Diplomacy. \nThe conference organised by the Spanish Presidency of the European Council together with the European Commission has the following objectives: \n– Taking stock of the development of the European Framework for Science Diplomacy;\n– Progressing the draft framework and discussing the way ahead;\n– Offering space for dialogue\, co-creation and participation by a broad range of stakeholders and fostering science diplomacy outreach\, also beyond the EU;\n– and enhancing motivation amongst science diplomacy actors to get actively involved and creating visibility for the ongoing process. \nThe conference will also be the occasion to celebrate the 5th anniversary of the Madrid Declaration on Science Diplomacy\, which has been endorsed by over 200 experts since its adoption in December 2018. \nMore info here.

SUMMARY:CHIPS meets Chips: Transatlantic cooperation in semiconductor research Private S|B event in partnership with the Center for Strategic and  International Studies
DESCRIPTION:   \n\n\n\nIn the fast-evolving semiconductor landscape\, the United States and the European Union have embarked on substantial initiatives to bolster their semiconductor industries. With planned investments of $52.7 billion in the US through the CHIPS & Science Act and €43 billion in the EU with the Chips Act\, there is great potential for groundbreaking research\, innovative technologies\, advanced fabrication\, and transformative applications. There is also great potential in trans-Atlantic collaboration. Our high-level conference aims to clarify the goals and challenges of these programmes while also exploring how these ambitious initiatives can complement one another. \nEnhanced cooperation is not without its challenges\, including differing programme regulations\, political objectives\, and industry capabilities. Nevertheless\, the dividends of trans-Atlantic cooperation are potentially immense—greater technological progress\, heightened efficiencies\, reduced costs\, more secure supply chains\, and strengthened trade and diplomatic ties. Many companies and research institutions\, spanning both sides of the Atlantic\, recognise these potential benefits and are actively exploring collaborative opportunities. \nOur event\, jointly organised by Brussels-based Science|Business news service and the Center for Strategic & International Studies (CSIS)\, one of America’s leading policy research institutions\, offers a unique platform to discuss these opportunities publicly. Bringing together stakeholders from industry\, academia\, and government \, this conference will be broadcast live from Brussels\,  reported on by the Science|Business news service and followed up with a policy paper from CSIS. \nOur goal is to highlight the need and opportunities inherent in greater cooperation and begin an ongoing transatlantic dialogue that brings together European and Americans from industry\, academia\, and policymakers in this crucial enabling technology.

SUMMARY:Strategies for R&D resilience in shifting security paradigms Public S|B Widening conference
DESCRIPTION:   \n\n\n\nThe world of science is changing fast as geopolitical tensions between east and west intensify. Science and technology organisations are less open to the world since Russia started the war in Ukraine\, and China and the US engaged in a technology standoff. \nThis conference aims to provide insightful discussions on how security and defence developments profoundly impact research and development in the EU’s so-called Widening countries\, and what policy responses are needed in order to safeguard the future of R&D in this region and beyond. \n\nEvolving Needs: The Widening countries\, located primarily in central and eastern Europe\, face significant threats to their research and development sectors. Not only could we see a diversion of resources towards defence spending in general\, but the R&D investments could also be routed in that direction. There’s also the pressing concern that the costs of research will increase\, as cybersecurity breaches and other security challenges could require investments to fortify research infrastructures. This happens across the EU\, but the impact is asymmetric in countries with below 70% of the EU GDP.\nHistorical and Geographic Insights: The history and geographic position of the Widening countries play a pivotal role in addressing these new challenges. The region\, with its rich historical context\, has often been at the crossroads of major global events. It has unique insights to offer\, borne out of its past experiences in dealing with both security threats and opportunities. Furthermore\, given the region’s proximity to these new areas of conflict\, it now finds itself on the frontline of emerging security challenges. This places the region in a prime position to gain first-hand experiences and a more acute understanding of these new threats. By leveraging its historical insights and frontline perspective\, the region can contribute valuable knowledge to addressing security challenges across the EU.\n\nOur conference seeks to bring together experts and stakeholders from both within and outside the region to explore this dynamic landscape. Together\, we aim to debate policies and strategies for adapting to the new geopolitical circumstances and shape the future of R&D in the face of growing security and defence threats across the EU.

SUMMARY:Health & Life Science Sector Day – Health innovation and the future of medicines development Public S|B conference
DESCRIPTION:In April this year\, the European Commission issued its proposals for a comprehensive revision of the EU’s basic pharmaceutical legislation. Reflecting key lessons learned from COVID\, the proposals seek to create  an “innovation-and competitiveness-friendly” landscape in Europe for biomedical research and medicines development\, while ensuring greater resilience and autonomy in the event of future health crises and addressing the sector’s environmental footprint.   \nYet various R&D stakeholders are concerned that – in trying to strike a balance between myriad public and private sector interests – the Commission could inadvertently achieve the opposite. For example\, shortening EU patent protection on new therapeutics is intended to boost patient access to medicines\, but could persuade pharmaceutical companies\, scientists and investors to prioritise other regions to develop and commercialise breakthrough innovations in the future. Under such a scenario\, Europe’s whole health and life sciences community is likely to feel the chill\, with fewer resources over time to sustain its historical excellence in fundamental research\, international cooperation platforms\, and global scientific leadership. Both pharmaceutical and medical technology companies are closely watching the EU’s actions on data sharing. \nWhat ultimately emerges in terms of new directives and regulation will have a direct impact on pharmaceutical and medical technology R&D ecosystems everywhere – not just in terms of corporate investment and production planning\, but also attractiveness to venture capital\, public-private partnerships and top research talent\, among others. And perhaps more importantly\, it may influence Europe’s readiness to provide global leadership – both scientific and political – when the world is confronted with its next urgent health crisis.  \nOn 15 November\, the S|B Health & Life Sciences Day will therefore take as its central theme health innovation and the future of medicines development. It will explore the state of play at the interface between healthcare legislative and regulatory agendas and their R&D equivalents. It will also feature expert roundtables and debates on specific challenges and opportunities that will influence the next era of research-industry collaboration\, including issues such as data access and sharing across borders\, and the wider implications for health and life sciences in Europe. \nParticipants profiles \n\nScience: Vice-rectors\, deans of faculty\, heads of department\, institute\, or lab\, and senior researchers\nIndustry: R&D executives overseeing key projects\, pipelines and partnerships\, EU and Government Affairs teams\nPolicy: Key representatives from European institutions\, national ministries\, innovation agencies and international organisations

SUMMARY:Making waves: Is international R&I bringing a true blue economy within reach?
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, blue economy has moved steadily closer to the centre of political and policy radar screens around the world. Initially framed as the use of marine and maritime resources for economic growth\, the concept has expanded over time to the sustainable management and protection of ocean\, coastal and freshwater ecosystems – and along the way breathing fresh life into “nexus thinking” about the interrelationships between water\, energy and food. \nAs a nascent framework for planetary development\, blue economy holds vast potential\, but it also suffers from a lack of best practices\, clear governance and the limited scope and organisation of its applications to date.  Unsurprisingly\, the EU – along with the UN\, which launched the Decade of Sustainable Oceans in 2020\, and other like-minded countries – has been at the forefront of efforts to address these issues. Last year the European Commission launched one of its flagship missions under Horizon Europe to “Restore our Ocean and Waters”\, signalling the blue economy’s importance for its strategies in various policy areas\, ranging from energy to fisheries. The effort goes in parallel with the launch of the Sustainable Blue Economy co-funded partnership\, which aims at the creation of a climate-neutral\, sustainable and productive maritime economic area. \nNonetheless\, navigating in the darkness is not the best approach at sea\, and in this context research can provide a safe harbour. To reap the benefits coming from the marine environment\, and to avoid the depletion of its resources and its ability to help in the fight against climate change\, solid research\, data\, planning and cross-border cooperation will be crucial elements moving forward. This is already evident in some of the blue economy sectors that show the highest potential – from sustainable fishing and aquaculture\, to marine renewable energy and blue biotechnologies – but is equally true in more problematic domains like deep sea mining. Yet without clear scientific evidence of the impact of new practices and technologies\, the blue economy will suffer from barriers to implementation and a lack of investment. Both elements are crucial\, and they may well define if the blue economy is here to stay\, or just a passing wave. \nAgainst this backdrop\, what is the existing relationship between marine research\, the market and policymaking? How can a closer research-industry connection ensure start-ups\, innovative ideas\, and entrepreneurs the right incentives from the financial sector? How can regulators be presented with a clearer view of the benefits of sustainable marine environments in the context of wider political agendas? On October 12\, Science|Business will gather expert policymakers\, research experts\, industrial representatives and other key stakeholders to reflect on the knowledge value chains necessary to act on the blue economy’s potential. \n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSzilvia Nemeth\nDeputy Head of Unit\, European Commission (DG RTD)\n\n\n\n\n\nClaire Jolly\nHead\, Ocean Economy and Space Economy\, STI Directorate\, OECD\n\n\n\n\n\nPaul Holthus\nFounding President & CEO\, World Ocean Council\n\n\n\n\n\nHannah Brocke\nCSO & Co-Founder\, Planblue\n\n\n\n\n\nAntonella Calvia-Götz\nInnovation Funding Advisor\, Projects Directorate\, European Investment Bank\n\n\n\n\n\nJoachim Claudet\nSenior Researcher & Ocean Advisor\, CNRS\n\n\n\n\n\nJennifer Laplante\nChief Growth and Investment Officer\, Ocean Supercluster Canada\n\n\n\n\n\nPeter De Schryver\nInnovations director at INVE AQUACULTURE\n\n\n\n\n\nEduardo Silva\nCoordinator\, TEC4SEA & Senior Researcher\, INESC TEC\n\n\n\n\n\nSteffen Knodt\nHead of Sustainable Ocean Business Centre\, Fraunhofer\n\n\n\n\n\nChristina Abildgaard\nDirector\, Department for Bioresources and Environmental Research\, Research Council of Norway\n\n\n\n\n\nØyvind Fiksen\nProfessor and Marine Dean\, University of Bergen\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPartners

SUMMARY:2nd Science|Business Sector Day: Green Deal & Climate – The road to net-zero industry
DESCRIPTION:Watch the conference videos here \nThe European Green Deal is arguably the biggest ambition of the current European Commission and EU leaders agree on the need to accelerate Europe’s transition to a net-zero industry. While the EU agreed to invest part of its 1.8 trillion budget euros into accelerating the transition to a more sustainable economy\, it needs to get better and faster at moving tech ideas towards the marketplace. Several related questions arise\, among which: How Europe’s climate policies and tools can help set the right research and investment priorities to help make it happen? What are the key priorities for climate-related research in the short and medium terms\, and how can EU funding support and leverage the success of green tech incubators\, entrepreneurs and international cooperation? What is the responsibility of large corporations in the process? And how can Europe reposition value chains to obtain the resources it lacks while avoiding the creation of new dependencies? \nOn 18 and 19 September\, Science|Business will gather experts from industry\, research and policy to assess the state of play in the implementation of key aspects of the plan\, especially the Net-Zero Industry Act\, as well as the research needed to make it happen and other challenges ahead. \nDownload the event pack here.
