SMEs in Horizon 2020<br />
Why are <strong>the</strong>y important?<br />
• 99% <strong>of</strong> all European business are SMEs<br />
• 85% <strong>of</strong> net new jobs in <strong>the</strong> EU between 2002 and<br />
2010 were created by small and medium sized<br />
enterprises (SMEs)<br />
• SMEs are quick to adapt to and exploit new market<br />
opportunities<br />
• Taking innovative ideas to <strong>the</strong> market<br />

• All <strong>for</strong>ms <strong>of</strong> R&D and all <strong>for</strong>ms <strong>of</strong> innovation, towards<br />
exploitation and commercialisation<br />
• SME participation in collaborative R&D or innovation projects<br />
(all three pillers)<br />
• SME instrument (budget from all societal challenges as well<br />
as from <strong>the</strong> LEITs)<br />
• Innovation in start-ups, spin-<strong>of</strong>fs and young companies<br />
(Eurostars and o<strong>the</strong>r measures)<br />

SME innovation strategy<br />
Strong relationship between innovation and<br />
internationalisation!<br />
SMEs that participate in European projects:<br />
• Increase <strong>the</strong>ir R&D an innovation capability due to <strong>the</strong> possibility<br />
to tap into <strong>the</strong> best knowledge in <strong>the</strong> Union<br />
• Get access to international networks<br />
• Get access to new markets and customers<br />
• Have access to qualified staff<br />
• Increase <strong>the</strong>ir reputation and visibility on an EU level<br />
Policy <strong>Research</strong> and<br />
Innovation
Good project results but little<br />
exploitation….<br />
• Need to address this in Horizon 2020<br />
• WP 2013 increased focus on innovative actions closer to<br />
<strong>the</strong> market activities i.e. demonstration actions, pilots,<br />
etc.<br />
• Calls in line with societal challenges to develop new<br />
markets and tackle citizens' concerns.<br />

• As <strong>of</strong> 1/5/2012, 15.6% <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Cooperation budget goes to SMEs. FP7 has<br />
funded 13,700 SMEs with some € 3.5 billion<br />
• In WP2013: 105 topics dedicated to SMEs, estimated to lead to around<br />
20% budget share (WP2012, 91 topics, 18.5% estimated share)<br />
• Overall budget share <strong>of</strong> SMEs in FP7 is estimated to increase to around<br />
16%.<br />
• An extrapolation exercise <strong>for</strong>ecasts <strong>the</strong> total budget going to SMEs in FP7<br />
(all programmes) to amount to € 7 billion, <strong>benefit</strong>ing around 20,000<br />
SMEs<br />
• SME-friendly actions include:<br />
• SME-oriented topics, or topics generally encouraging industrial<br />
participants (including SMEs)<br />
• Dedicated calls with "ring-fencing" <strong>of</strong> budgets <strong>for</strong> SMEs (up to<br />
75% <strong>of</strong> budget), and/or additional criteria (e.g. SME in leading role)<br />
Policy <strong>Research</strong> and<br />

• WP13 provide more support to market uptake <strong>of</strong><br />
innovation (prototyping and demonstration)<br />
• Exploitation <strong>of</strong> promising existing research results<br />
(whatever <strong>the</strong>ir origin, both EU and non-EU funding)<br />
• Demand-driven innovation (Pre-commercial procurement)<br />
• Support <strong>for</strong> standardisation<br />
• Service innovation (including process and organisational<br />
Innovation)<br />
• Social innovation<br />
