Foreword<br />

VINNOVA, together with the Swedish Research Council, the Swedish<br />

Energy Agency, the Swedish Council for Working Life and Social Research<br />

and the Swedish Research Council Formas, was in 2007 instructed by the<br />

Swedish government to conduct an impact analysis of EU framework<br />

programmes for research and development at the <strong>le</strong>vel of industrial sectors<br />

and universities in the period 1990 to date.<br />

A steering group with representatives from these research councils and<br />

agencies agreed on the foundation for the analysis. VINNOVA coordinated<br />

the work in the steering group. Representatives were Gunnel Dreborg,<br />

Lennart Norgren and Erica Tenevall (VINNOVA), Carl Jacobsson, Johan<br />

Fröberg, Anette Gröjer and Andreas Augustsson (the Swedish Research<br />

Council), Uno Svedin (the Swedish Research Council Formas), Cecilia<br />

Grevby (the Swedish Council for Working Life and Social Research) and<br />

Peter Rohlin (the Swedish Energy Agency).<br />

The impact analysis was conducted by Technopolis Ltd. The scope covers<br />

four industrial sectors: Sustainab<strong>le</strong> energy; Life Science and Health; ICT;<br />

and Vehic<strong>le</strong>s, as well as the universities: Chalmers Institute of Technology;<br />

Karolinska Institute; and the Universities of Lund, Gothenburg and Växjö.<br />

Swedish participation in FP3 to FP6 and its impact on research at<br />

universities and on innovation in industrial sectors is at the forefront of<br />

analysis. The bibliometric study (appendix J) was carried out by the<br />

Swedish Research Council. The presented policy implications in the report<br />

are the conclusions of Technopolis Ltd.<br />

The study will hopefully inspire new policy action in the field of research<br />

and innovation on the national and the supranational <strong>le</strong>vel in Europe. The<br />

Swedish agencies will be inspired by the report. VINNOVA would like to<br />

thank Technopolis Ltd. for their work and also the participating agencies<br />

contributing to the result in a most constructive way.<br />
