NCP Academy aims to…
• bring together NCP Coordinators and NCPs for Legal and Financial aspects of Horizon 2020
• develop and implement training courses on cross‐cutting issues for Horizon 2020 advisors
• address quality standards and good practice as well as routes to feedback and communication for this community
• significantly enhance the performance of NCPs and does so by harnessing the knowledge base already existing within this community

Innovation in Horizon 20201. What does innovation mean?
Definition by John Kao (author of “Innovation Nation” and strategic advisor):

“My definition of innovation is the capability of continuously achieving a desired future.” (www.johnkao.com/services)
“What I have learned is that innovation –creating what is both new and valuable – is not a narrowly defined, technical area of competence. (…) Rather, innovation emerges when different bodies of knowledge, perspectives, and disciplines are brought together.” (Innovation Nation, 2007, p. 9)
Definition of Disruptive Innovation by Clayton Christensen: A process by which a product/service takes root in simple applications at the bottom of a market and then moves up market, eventually displacing established competitors.

Innovation in Horizon 20201. What does innovation mean?
Basis for EU politics: OECD Frascati Manual 2002, p. 30/33
Research and experimental development (R&D) comprise creative work undertaken on a systematic basis in order to increase the stock of knowledge […]
In the Oslo Manual (OECD, 1997a), [other innovationactivities] are defined as all those scientific, technical, commercial and financial steps, other than R&D, necessary for the implementation of new or improved products or services and the commercial use of new or improved processes. […]
Innovation in Horizon 20201. What does innovation mean?
EU Context• (…) Europe (…) requires a competitive industry that builds its competitiveness on innovation in all its forms: Development and application of
• technologies at the technology frontier, • new business models and • organisational models • reaching out new geographic markets.

Treaty of Lisbon – two main areas covering innovation
Innovation in Horizon 2020 2. Concept and funding schemes
“in accordance with a system of open and competitive markets, their [Union and Member States] action shall be aimed at: speeding up the adjustment of industry to structural changes,– encouraging an environment favourable to initiative and to the development of undertakings throughout the Union, particularly small and medium‐sized undertakings,– encouraging an environment favourable to cooperation between undertakings,– fostering better exploitation of the industrial potential of policies of innovation, research and technological development.”
‐ realisation of the European Research Area (ERA) ‐ coordination of activities concerning research and technologicaldevelopment amongst EU and the Member States‐ the European Commission can set out guidelines and indicators formonitoring and evaluation of the progress in cooperation with theMember States (Art. 181 II TFEU) long‐term framework programme
Article 173 TFEU
‐ industrial policy‐ guaranteeing conditions for competitiveness of the industry
Articles 179‐189 TFEU
‐ research policy

Funding Schemes
Innovation in Horizon 2020 2. Concept and funding schemes
Different approach towards research results• Quicker exploitation of research results for new technologies, products,
procedures, and services• „Valley of death“: market uptake of good ideas needs to be improved –
beneficial for companies and society• Coupling research to innovation
• Intensify cooperation between science and economy• Reduce obstacle for companies to bring good ideas to the market
• Stronger linkage with Technology Readiness Levels

IA: Innovation Actions• Activities directly aiming at producing plans and arrangements or designs
for new, altered or improved products, processes or services• E.g. prototyping, testing, demonstrating, piloting, large‐scale product
validation and market replication• may include limited research and development activities
Funding rate: 70% (except for non‐profit legal entities, where a rate of 100% applies)

Excersise output
• Academia and business speak different languages, think from different directions
• It depends on funding scheme, topic, calldescription, project
• Low TRL means, just consider who couldexploit the results how
• Think from the evaluator‘s point of view: what is convincing?

DLR‐PT – 18 October 2016 42
Innovation in Horizon 2020 4. European Innovation Council (EIC)
Background
• Launched by EU Commissioner Moedas on 22 Juni 2015• Groundbreaking ideas and talents• New markets in Europe• Closing the innovation gap
• Mid‐Term Review of Horizon 2020 (2017) EIC• Idea related to European Research Council (ERC)• Term is not new: 2002, Bruegel‐ ThinkTank; proposed forimplementation in 2010
43https://ec.europa.eu/research/eic/index.cfm
Innovation in Horizon 2020 4. European Innovation Council (EIC)
Open Innovation• Innovators contribute parts of thesolution
• Access to this partly solutions can bebought and combined Innovators collaborate and offer theirintermediate results
44
Innovation in Horizon 2020 4. European Innovation Council (EIC)
Chronology• Idea launched on 22 Juni 2015• Public consultation Feb‐Apr 2016• Workshop in Brussels July 2016• Oct 2016: 12 experts panel• 2017 Pilot and H2020 Mid‐term evaluation• 2018: planed start of EIC?
45
Innovation in Horizon 2020 4. European Innovation Council (EIC)
Discussion – state of the art? Clearer parts• Programme, no institution or building (such as EIT)• Analogous example: European Research Council, ERC• "Bottom‐up" approach; interdisciplinary; Sector‐
spanning; participation independent of Development stage (TRL)
• Target group: Individuals (e.g., inventors), companies, consortia
46
Innovation in Horizon 2020 4. European Innovation Council (EIC)
Discussion – state of the art? Not so clear• Policy: funding, advice, both, prizes (similar to Nobel
Prize)• Financing forms: grants, loans, venture capital, mix• "Fund of funds" (similar to Israeli revolving VC funds)
with EU‐wide financing conditions• Governance: new legal entity, changed mission of
existing structures, ...
47
Innovation in Horizon 2020 4. European Innovation Council (EIC)
Key Questions• Public support vs. private investment• Funding vs. risk finance• Research‐driven innovation vs. all• Role of the „Seal of Excellence“
48
„The ability to innovate will more and more become a key to competitiveness. Half of the products we want to sell in 5 years are yet to be developed.“
