ISE calls for a stronger stand-alone R&I Framework Programme with a ringfenced budget, boosting collaborative basic research to create an upward Research & Innovation spiral in the collaboration pillar, and shielding the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions and the European Research Council.
ISE 6 main recommendations for FP10 are:
- Ensure a stronger stand-alone R&I Framework Programme with a ringfenced budget.
- Boost collaborative basic research to create an upward Research & Innovation spiral in the collaboration pillar.
- Shield Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions and the European Research Council
- Policymakers should define the goals but leave the pathways to reach them open
- Increase trust and flexibility for beneficiaries – researchers and innovators
- Consult both, European science associations and European industry associations, on R&I strategy and policy.
The ISE FP10 Task Force has been conducting a long reflection on the European Framework Programme for Research and Innovation, with a focus on the areas it deems of highly strategic importance to the development of the European R&I system. It took into account recent strategic reports and communications like the Heitor report, Draghi report and the EU Competitiveness Compass.
ISE provided advise to national ministries, the European Commission and members of the European Parliament and is looking forward to continuing this constructive collaboration with advice towards pilot initiatives in Horizon Europe and the development of Framework Programme 10.
