Manufacturing in Europe today
Factories of the Future PPP
•
61 projects up and running
•
€ 250M of EU in 2010/11
•
time-to-contract 1st call: 8.5 months
•
statistics show industrial participation
of more than 50% in FoF PPP
(compared to some 20-30% for FP7)
•
additional € 400M in 2012/13
•
Ad-hoc Industry Advisory Group
(AIAG) works well, ensures that
roadmap reflects industrial needs
