SUMMARY:Horizon Europe: Where next for lump-sum funding and simplification? Private S|B Network FP Working Group webinar
DESCRIPTION:In a move towards the simplification of R&I grant implementation\, the EC has introduced (among other measures) lump sum funding in Horizon Europe. While the original intention was to reduce administration and financial errors\, the launch of the methodology was hampered by real-life circumstances. The energy crisis and the subsequent inflation in costs of living have shadowed the changes the EU Commission was planning to bring about\, with some stakeholders casting doubts on the benefits of lump sum funding. Science|Business will dive into the formalities of the process in this Network members-only webinar\, trying to shed light on the future of the mechanism.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Framework Programme Working Group on STEP
DESCRIPTION:On March 14\, Science Business will host DG RTD’s Anna Panagopoulou\, Director for ERA and Innovation\, for a closed-door conversation on the Strategic Technologies for Europe Platform (STEP). The discussions around STEP have left many in doubt about the perspective of this initiative and its impact on research funding\, with the proposed €10 billion in additional endowments reduced to a simple €1.5 billion addition to the European Defence Fund. This will be a unique occasion to get some insight on the work that surrounded STEP\, how the process was conducted and what the perspectives are for the year(s) to come. \nRegistrations are open here.

SUMMARY:One Hour with Europe appointment on Dual-Use White Paper with EC DG RTD Director Maria Cristina Russo
DESCRIPTION:At the end of January 2024\, the European Commission published a White Paper on options for enhancing support of Research and Development (R&D) of technologies with dual-use potential. This is a part of a larger package designed to enhance the EU’s economic security\, while upholding “the openness of trade\, investment and research” for the EU’s economy. \nThe White Paper launches a public consultation where the stakeholders are asked to share their views on how dual use research should be handled in the future FP10. \nThe three options can be summarised as:  \ni) Building upon the current approach established under Horizon Europe\,\nii) Removing the exclusive focus on civil applications in selected parts of the successor program to Horizon Europe\,\niii) Creating a dedicated instrument with a specific focus on R&D with dual-use potential. \nThe public consultation allows a comprehensive dialogue with stakeholders that should reflect on aspects like:  \nWhat are the challenges and opportunities related to increased focus on dual-use research and how can the related consultation impact the successor programme to Horizon Europe? \nWhat are the implications for researchers and innovators from civil or defense domains\, and how can the EU foster open and safem research cooperation among research organisations? How could this influence European competitiveness and the EU economic security? \nIn this One Hour with Europe\, we are happy to welcome Director for Global Approach and International Cooperation in R&I in DG RTD\, European Commission Maria Cristina Russo that will present the White Paper and the related public consultation and will be available to answer to the questions of the participants on this webinar. \nThe online event will find place on Thursday\, 21st of March\, at 14:00-15:00. Register before the 20th of March at 12:00 CET to receive the link to the webinar room. \nClick here to register
