work, development of regional partner facilities, etc.)
 the operation phase (e.g. access, data handling,
outreach, training and international cooperation activities)
 design studies for new RIs through a bottom-up approach
Policy
Research and
Innovation
1.2 Integrating and opening existing
national RIs of pan-European interest
• Objective: To open up key national RIs to all
European researchers and to ensure their optimal use
and joint development
• EU funding will support “European Research
Infrastructures Networks” bringing together RIs in a
given field covering:

 Networking activities to foster a culture of cooperation
 Joint research activities to improve the services
provided by the infrastructures
Policy
Research and
Innovation
1.3 Development, deployment and
operation of ICT based e-Infrastructures
• Objective: To achieve by 2020 a single and open
European space for online research
• EU funding will support :
 Global research and education networks
 Grid and cloud infrastructures
 Ecosystem of supercomputing facilities progressing
towards exa-scale
 Software and service infrastructure for visualisation and
simulation
 Real-time collaborative tools for virtual research
communities
 Interoperable, open and rich scientific data infrastructure
Policy
Research and
Innovation
2. Fostering the innovation potential of
RIs and their human capital
• To stimulate innovation both in the RIs themselves and in
their supplier and user industries
 R&D partnerships with industries to develop Union capacities in
high-tech areas such as scientific instrumentation
 pre-commercial procurement by RI actors
 stimulate the use of RIs by industry
 Encourage the integration of RIs into local, regional and global
innovation ecosystems
• To strengthen the human capital of RIs
 Support for the training of staff managing and operating RIs,
exchanges of staff and best practices between facilities
Policy
Research and
Innovation
3. Reinforcing European RI policy
and international cooperation
• Reinforcing European policy for RIs
 Partnerships between relevant policymakers and funding
bodies
 Surveys, monitoring and assessments of RIs at Union level
 Policy studies and communication tasks
• Facilitating strategic international cooperation
 Cooperation for global RIs
 Cooperation of European RIs with their non-European
counterparts:
 Ensuring their global interoperability and reach
 Pursuing international agreements on the reciprocal use,
openness or co-financing of RIs

ESFRI – European Strategy Forum on
Research Infrastructures
• Set up by the EU Council of Research Ministers in 2002
• Brings together representatives of Ministers of the 27 Member
States, 10 Associated States, and of the European Commission
• To support the development of a European policy for Research
Infrastructure and discuss a long term vision at European level
• To facilitate multilateral initiatives leading to the better use and
development of Research Infrastructures, at EU and international
level
• Mandate (2004) to develop a roadmap (2006) and its updates
(2008, 2010): 48 projects, major financial investment (~20 b€)
and long term commitment for operation (~2 b€/year)
Research & Innovation
ESFRI – European Strategy Forum on
Research Infrastructures
• On 11 December 2012, the Council adopted Conclusions on A
reinforced European research area partnership for excellence and
growth. In these Conclusions, the Council endorses the need for
strengthened partnership in the field of research infrastructures
and:
• "Emphasises the need for renewing and adapting the mandate of
ESFRI to adequately address the existing challenges and also to
ensure the follow-up of implementation of already on-going
ESFRI projects after a comprehensive assessment, as well as the
prioritisation of the infrastructure projects listed in the ESFRI
roadmap."

PRACE
ERIC - European Research Infrastructure Consortium
(Council Regulation (EC) No 723/2009 of 25 June 2009)
• A legal instrument at EU level, to facilitate the joint
establishment and operation of RI of European interest.
• Legal personality recognized in all Member
States
• Qualifies as an international organization for
the purposes of VAT (exemption under certain
limits and conditions from VAT and excise duties)
and Public Procurement Directives
Research & Innovation
What is Joint Programming?
• The overall aim of the Joint Programming process is to pool
national research efforts in order to make better use of
Europe's precious public R&D resources and to tackle common
European challenges more effectively in a few key areas.
• It is a structured and strategic process whereby Member
States agree, on a voluntary basis and in a partnership
approach, on common visions and Strategic Research Agendas
(SRA) to address major societal challenges. On a variable
geometry basis, Member States commit to Joint Programming
Initiatives (JPIs) where they implement together joint Strategic
Research Agendas.

Marine RIs
 Significant support from RIs actions + (past) RTD projects
e.g. MAST… technological challenges due to hostile env't
 Ship based exploration  multiplatform
 Innovation (e.g. gliders, new sensors incl. biochemical)
 Delayed data  quasi-real time
 Interrelated approaches & scales: in situ/remote observation/modelling – local/regional/global – shortterm/long-term - multidisciplinary
 “Dual” use: research / operational incl. monitoring (EU
directives MSFD, Fisheries, GMES, GEOSS…) and…
exploitation?
 Well organised community (EU & int'l) – yet very distributed
nature of some of the RIs: towards an "EOOS" (expert group
on MRIs)?
