A U S T R I A 16 TRANSPORT RESEARCH IN THE EUROPEAN RESEARCH AREA In accordance with the principles of Austria’s federal constitution, both national government and the individual Länder pursue research, technology and innovation policies. While there are a number of cooperation agreements between the federal state and the Länder for individual research promotion programmes (e.g. competence centres), there is no other strategic system of overall coordination. The main responsibility for transport research and technology policy is vested within the Ministry for Transport, Innovation and Technology (BMVIT). Besides the BMVIT, other ministries are involved as well, such as the Ministry of Economy, Family and Youth (BMWFJ), the Ministry for Agriculture, Forestry, Environment and Water Management (BMLFUW) and the Ministry for Science and Research (BMWF). The Ministry of Finance (BMF) has a horizontal budgetary competence. Most transport research funding measures are managed by the Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG), at the operative and administrative level, on behalf of BMVIT and BMWFJ. Further support activities are driven directly by the ministries in the form of subsidies and research contracts or special actions like prizes and awards. More general R&D support for technology and innovation is provided by the Austria Wirtschaftsservice GmbH – including the ERP Fund – and the Austrian Science Fund FWF. BMVIT aims to increase the technology and innovation structure at the national and regional level, by strengthening innovative systems, increasing the cooperation with research institutions and other companies and involving local activities in innovative markets. Priority is given to establishing strategic programmes. These include supporting SME’s, industry, universities and non-university research institutions, in undertaking cooperative research projects to strengthen links between industrial and scientific players. NATIONAL GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTS Federal Ministry for Transport, Innovation and Technology (BMVIT) Bundesministerium für Verkehr, Innovation und Technologie www.bmvit.gv.at IV2Splus – Intelligent Transport Systems and Services plus (2007-2012) Intelligente Verkehrssysteme und Services plus Programme focusing on expanding excellence in research and development through stronger international embedding of successfully established national R&D competences, with the goal of increased integration of these competences into international, industrial, value-creation chains. The three programme lines A3plus, I2V and ways2go come under the IV2Splus strategy programme. www.bmvit.gv.at/en/innovation/mobility/ index.html A3plus – Alternative Propulsion Systems and Fuels (2007-2012) Alternative Antriebssysteme und Treibstoffe A sub-programme of IV2Splus, A3plus is striving to make the transport of the future significantly more energy efficient and more environmentally friendly by promoting research and development in the field of innovative propulsion technologies and alternative fuels. www.a3plus.at I2V – Intermodality and Interoperability of Transport Systems (2007-2012) Intermodalität und Interoperabilität von Verkehrssystemen I2V, also within IV2Splus, is the BMVIT’s impulse programme to promote cooperative R&D projects to ensure the competitiveness and innovativeness of intermodal transport. www.i2v.at
