The EU initiative Innovation Union focuses Europe's efforts – and its cooperation with non EU countries – on the big challenges of our time: energy, food security, climate change and our ageing population. It uses public sector intervention to stimulate the private sector and remove bottlenecks which prevent ideas from reaching the market – including lack of finance, fragmented research systems and markets, under-use of public procurement for innovation and slow standard-setting.

The EU is also working to create a single European Research Area, where researchers will be able to work anywhere in the EU and cooperation across borders will be supported and encouraged.

​

In January 2014, the EU launched its latest 7-year research programme - Horizon 2020 - Almost €80-bn of EU funding is available up to 2020 – in addition to the private and national public investment this money will attract. It  combines all research and innovation funding in one integrated programme.

​

Its goals are:

• to strengthen the EU’s position in science (€24.4-bn of funding – including €13-bn for the European Research Council)

• strengthen industrial innovation (€17-bn) - including investment in key technologies, greater access to capital and support for small businesses

• address major social concerns, such as climate change, sustainable transport, renewable energy, food safety and security, ageing populations (€24.4-bn).

• ​

Horizon 2020 will seek to:

• ensure technological breakthroughs are developed into  viable products  with real commercial potential – by building partnerships with industry and government

• step up international cooperation on research & innovation - by inviting countries and organisations outside the EU to participate 

• further develop the European Research Area.
