versus
Integrated
projects
• Strengthen excellence in a
research domain
• Society problems &
competitiveness
• Aim at integration
• Aim at exploitation
• Joint programme of
activities
• Implementation plan
(pre-defined results)
• Seeking continuity
• Limited in time
• Autocatalytic knowledge
mass for excellence
• Critical mass for problem
solving
• EC funds: depending on
“integrated” resources
• EC funds: depending on
estimated costs
New Instruments
Integrated Projects
(IP)
Aim: flagship, ambitious, leading to radical innovation
and transformation of industry in the long term
•
Strong industrial participation and even leadership
•
From fixed objectives to new applicable knowledge
•
Positive image of industrial research
•
Include inter-related activities
New Instruments
Networks of Excellence (NE)
Aim: Lasting integration of long-term research
to overcome fragmentation

NMP calls in 2003
Lessons learnt
•
•
•
•
•
•
High subscription
Good S&T quality and coverage of topics
Need for more industrial participation, however
very good SME participation
Need for selective use of instruments and
increased concentration of topics
Two stage procedure to be simplified
Need for better training of coordinators as well
as experts; importance of NCPs
NMP calls in 2004
What’s new? - (i) Revision of 2-stage
submission and evaluation procedure
• Simpler, shorter “Stage 1”: Incomplete outline
