EU-LIFE presents its vision for FP10 and the EIC
EU-LIFE, an alliance of leading research centres in life sciences, has published a position paper 'Towards FP10: EU-LIFE's vision for the European Innovation Council'. The main points raised in the paper are the following:
- Promote a solid EIC model, rebalancing public and private funding
- Commit to support long-term, high impact innovation, by allocating more resources to the EIC
- Promote synergies across pillars to support the transition from knowledge and technology to implementation
- Rethink the EIC Challenges schemes to achieve the most impact
- Leverage the potential of the EIC for capacity building in the research community
- Facilitate the development of skills needed for researchers to become innovators
In addition, EU-LIFE calls for "smoother and more realistic project implementation".
