5. Horizon 2020
Activities for SMEs
• All forms of R&D and all forms of innovation, towards
exploitation and commercialisation
• SME participation in collaborative R&D or innovation projects
(all three priorities)
• SME instrument (budget from all societal challenges as well
as from the LEITs)
• Innovation in start-ups, spin-offs and young companies
(Eurostars and other measures)
• Access to risk finance (debt and equity facility)
• Exchange and mobility of researchers involving SMEs (Marie
Curie actions)
• Links for access to procurements…

7. Outcome of impact assessments
• Less than 50% of industrial partners use the publicly funded
applied research projects strategically
• Only about 22% of SMEs participating in EU research programs
are strategic innovators
• Most academics engage with industry to further their research
rather than to commercialise their knowledge
• Results are not exploited because projects were not designed for
exploitation
• There is a strong relationship between internationalisation and
innovation, but SMEs are not aware of internationalisation support
programmes.
• The information environment of (European) R&D programmes is
unattractive and repelling to SMEs
Policy

Innovation
8. Known pitfalls
• In case of interesting research results SMEs cannot benefit from
them due to missing IPR strategy in the beginning of the project
• Projects are "front-loaded" (=R&D centred), insufficient resources
planned for exploitation phase
• SMEs are not encouraged to take the project leadership, but
public (R&D) organisations lack the entrepreneurial expertise

Open issues
• Evaluation and selection based on market relevance
• How much paper do we need… to strike a balance between
a lean administration and a reliable selection
• Mentoring and coaching: definitions, organisational aspects
• How to convince potential lead customers and investors of
the quality of the selection process… towards a quality label
We are eager to discuss with and to
learn from you

emerging or established firms. typical bottlnecks key challenges in emerging firms: SEED stage with main focus on product/service innovation and UPSCALING stage with main focus of collaborative projects on industrialisation and distribution. Additional support options should target the financing and competence gap key challenges in established firms: RENEWAL stage with focus of collaborative projects on product / process innovation. Additional support options should target the competence gap. it should be along these kind of real life business challenges and key transitions that the EU should position its support programmes. why not programmes that are particularly funding projects addressing one or more of these challenges?
