What is an ETP?
• As defined in EURAB 04.010-final [January 2004], a
European Technology Platform [ETP] is a major,
pan-European mission-oriented initiative aimed at
strengthening Europe’s capacity to organize and
deliver innovation – strengthening the Europeanwide innovation process. An ETP will bring together
relevant stakeholders to identify the innovation
challenge, develop the necessary research
programme and implement the results.
As envisaged by the European Commission, the development of ETPs can
help to ensure the European investment in R&D rapidly and effectively:
1. delivers benefits to the European citizen,
2. creates competitiveness for European companies,
3. ends the situation in which high EU R&D investment often produces
fewer that expected benefits, and
4. helps to give shape to the European Research Area [ERA] on a sectorby-sector basis.
In recent years, more than 25 ETPs have been initiated, covering sectors
as diverse as Steel, Sustainable Chemistry, Textile and Clothing, Plants
for the Future and Large Wing and Fuselage. A number have relevance
to the agro-food chain and these will be clustered to ensure optimal
exchange of information and best practice and minimal overlap of
activities.
European Technology Platforms (ETPs) are industry-led,
public/private partnerships encouraged by the European
Commission to drive innovation and unite stakeholder
communities in reaching strategic research objectives of key
European industry sectors. The main goals of the ETPs are to
strengthen the European innovation process, improve knowledge
transfer and stimulate European competitiveness across the food
chain.
Confederation (1) of the Food (associations) and
Drink (associations)
Industries (4) of the EU
ETP Food for Life was created in 2005
under the auspices of the Confederation
of the food and drink Industry of the EU
(CIAA), following the principles of the
Lisbon Strategy.

Food for Life looks forward to an effective dialogue with policymakers at European
and national level to ensure that the interests of consumers and other stakeholders
are fully addressed in the future The discussion on futures activities focused on:
•
•
•
•
•
•
ETP involvement in the Lead Market Initiative (LMI) for the food sector. The ETP has
responded to the LMI by identifying the healthy foods sector as the sector where the
greatest market growth opportunities lie and which reflects the increasing consumer
desire for a healthy and varied diet.
The establishment of two ERA Nets in the food sector, regarding the following thematic
areas: Food for Health and Sustainable Food Production
Development of closer cooperation with other ETPs, and national technology
platforms.
Enhancement of a closed dialogue with national governments, aimed in a consistent
alignment of research programmes and those funded through the EU’s Framework
Programmes that could encourage public–private partnerships, essential to stimulate
innovation. (via the ETP Mirror Group and the Public private partnership/ Joint
programming task force)
Assuring that ETP Food for Life research priorities will be constantly reflected in
the calls for proposals under the Food, Agriculture and Fisheries, and Biotechnology
theme of the Cooperation pillar of the 7th Framework Programme (FP7) of the EU
Optimising knowledge transfer to industry and maintaining together the widest crosssection of European researchers and other stakeholders to recognise the most
important challenges that the sector faces in the next decade or so.

Introduction & mission of the Mirror group
The ETP Mirror Group was established in June 2008 with eighteen National
Food Platforms appointing members at this first meeting. It is the aim to
have all Member States represented either as full members or,
perhaps initially, as observers. Members will be in close dialogue with, or
will belong to national food research agencies, ministries or equivalent
funding bodies.
The Mirror Group has created three Activity Groups to:
• develop a strategy and respond to the current FP7 call for Enhanced
cooperation in food and health with a view to strengthening the European
Research Area,
• identify overlapping research areas and sharing results, and
• prepare an overview of funding opportunities.
• The Mirror Group will be a driver for trans- European dialogue between
bodies funding food research, and between these and the ETP to
encourage the stakeholders to optimise research funding avoiding
duplication and thereby releasing funding for shared strategic goals.

To: Mr Timothy HALL,
DG Research, European
Commission,
Square de Meeûs 8
B - 1049 Brussels
Dear Mr Hall,
following our letter of 4th October 2007 the ETP “Food for Life”/CIAA
Research Group has prioritised the most urgent goals within the
Strategic Research Agenda to be achieved in order to enhance
innovation & competitiveness in the European agro-food sector .
We have produced the following list of key topics that we really
need to see included in the work programme 2010, theme 2 “Food,
Agriculture and Fisheries and Biotechnology”: and TOPICS had
been proposed: see, please, all original correspondence on CD!!!

CEI Consultation on the
European Technology Platform “Food for Life”
Bratislava, 20-21st September , 2006
Background: European Technology
Platforms are industry-led, public/private
partnerships which aim to unite
stakeholder communities in support of a
long-term, programme of research,
communication, training and knowledge
transfer which will stimulate and underpin
European innovation
Bratislava, 20-21st September 2006
• Mr. Miroslav Jureňa, Minister of Agriculture of the Slovak Republic
• Dr. Jürgen Lucas [European Commission]
• European [and Newly Independent State] partners were described by Dr. Dóra
Groó [Hungary]
• Dr. András Sebők [Hungary], a Board member of the ETP, described the
relevance of the platform to industry, researchers, policymakers and consumers
across C/E Europe. The ETP must address the aims, aspirations and
opportunities of all these stakeholders within countries and across the region
• Prof. Peter Raspor [Slovenia], there was consideration of national food platforms
that had been established in Austria, Hungary, Italy and Poland as a direct
consequence of the ETP
• Prof. Roger Fenwick [UK] responded on behalf of the ETP to many of the points
made during the meeting. It was true that the ETP was not yet as representative
as it should be across the Europe; however, it was committed to improving this
situation
• There was a discussion on what were the aims of these
platforms and it was agreed that these would depend on the
particular circumstances of the countries concerned. It was
considered that added value would be achieved by networking
these platforms so that experience and best practice could be
exchanged.
• This network would also serve to support other countries
[such as Ukraine and Romania] that were planning to
establish national platforms, and also to facilitate
communication [a] between stakeholders at national
level, and [b] between the national platforms and the
ETP.
• Dr. Kitti Németh would be the link between the national
platforms and the ETP and would initially chair this
network.

PROJECT
Ukrainian Initiative for Development of
European Technology Platform
Ukrainian Technology Platform “Safe Food and
Healthy Life”
The main problem is that up to now in Ukraine we have not yet developed a
well-structured network between all Food Research and Education Institutions,
Customer Service Agencies, Agricultural Universities, National Universities,
Manufacture Plants, Food Additives Registration Institutions, etc.
We are now at the very beginning of the process to join the EU in this domain.
Nowadays, based on the experiences of other EU countries, Ukraine is
developing its own “Ukrainian Technology Platform”…

Lessons
• We didn’t really understand well the
subject itself…
• We were wrong with way/strategy from
the beginning….
Weak points/wrong thoughts were:
1) UNTP should be created [established] as
obligation – “required”
2) We were oriented mostly on external
financial support [founds]
3) Structure is primary, the aim is secondary
4) Aim is not correct…
nt situation – again on the
beginning …

See, please, the
Resolution
New view,
new steps to
understanding
Aim first then way and money; Changing the “customer” behavior
1. Effective structure and financial politic
2. Principle of action – all directions, no format, for the result
3. Covered/permanent Education – not teaching, not training… rather
growing in right atmosphere by sharing of the all available CONCRETE
information and by intensive demonstration
4. Visibility
5. Changing the strategy – orientation/combination on internal
nongovernmental costs; from central – to alternative or rather sum of
them
6. Branch Programs in one COMPLETE packet: National Program –
innovative – Our “ motherland”
7. Creating real contacts, stop to think how “to create” and wait – act!
8. Managing of innovations: ideas and money: planned success
9. Instead of/in addition to Centers of excellence – network of existent
Centers
10. Regularities, connection, website!
11. Developing – move forward
1.
Effective structure and financial politic: see
Resolution + 7th December meeting,
2010: time to work
2.
Principle of action – all directions, multifaceted no format, for the result: just
started,
bases – agreement of collaboration, old good practice – without BIG
money, be flexible, create new working! centers
3.
Covered/permanent Education – not teaching only, not training… rather share available
sharing translated documents, discs,
movies (“Danisco”, IPC) – ETP, general; “salt”-relevant material,
innovative biotechnology – all-Ukrainian and all-level distribution.
4. Visibility: publications in public and scientific journals, internal
conferences, TV programs
CONCRETE information and demonstration:
5.
Changing the strategy – orientation/combination on internal nongovernmental costs; from
6.
central – to alternative or rather both of them - find the cost – WORK on it!
Branch Programs in one COMPLETE packet – National Program – innovative – Our “
Motherland”
7.
– under realization – the discussion is planned –
end of October, 2010
Creating real contacts, stop “to think how to create” and to wait: act! – specific
and small step, solving the problems – Catalog, SMEs supportive
actions, etc.
8.

11.
Managing of innovations: ideas and money: planned success –
pilot,
experimental farms, innovation
Instead of/in addition to Centers of excellence – network of existent
Centers, main players… stakeholders
Regular connection via website – “so-called communicative project”
Developing – registration, national definition, determination
and sharing the duties and urgent tasks, Internal
Cooperation, recognition instead of extreme competitions
and luck of information – Research Parks:
commercialization of science
