7 BUDGET – Divisione per pilastri/attività Industrial Leadership
Excellent Science Societal challenges

8 Horizon 2020 per le PMI Tutte le forme di R&D + innovazione (exploitation & commercialisation) SME participazione in progetti di R&D collaborativi o di innovazione SME instrument (budget da tutte le Societal Challenges e dalle LEITs) Sostegno delle PMI ad alta intensità di ricerca: innovazione nelle start-up, spin-off e giovani imprese «research intensive» (Eurostars 2) Rafforzare le capacità di innovazione delle PMI (mentoring e coaching + other activities – ProInno…): Innovation in SMEs Accesso alla finanza di rischio (prestiti e strumenti di equity) Scambi e mobilità dei ricercatori con il coinvolgimento di SMEs (Marie Curie actions) Collegamenti con accesso ai procurements Effetto leva con altri programmi

9 Supporto alle PMI: approccio integrato 20% del budget in LEITs & SCs
Strumento PMI 7% Progetti collaborativi 13% Eurostars II Enhancing Innovation Capacity Market-driven Innovation Access to Risk Finance LEIT: 'Innovation in SMEs' 9

10 Definizione di PMI Definizione:
La definizione di PMI utilizzata dalla Commissione (da 01/01/2005): Impegnata in una attività economica < 250 addetti Fatturato annuo di ≤ € 50 Milioni oppure un bilancio totale di ≤ € 43 Milioni Autonoma Definizione: Guida alla nuova definizione: 10

11 Validazione dello Status di PMI
Per i programmi riservati alle PMI, lo status di PMI è criterio di eleggibilità Questionario elettronico integrato nel portale nel tool di registrazione: il risultato del test produce una autodichiarazione della PMI (verrà accompagnato da una Declaration of honour). Checks Random e in caso di dubbio. Financial Viability Verification: i beneficiari singoli non sono considerati “coordinatori” e quindi non si applicano le regole di verifica finanziaria. In caso di gruppi di PMI invece si applicano le regole generali (se contributo > ).

12 Horizon 2020 : SME Instrument

13 Lo strumento PMI: le tre fasi
Phase 3 = 2% budget Lo strumento PMI: le tre fasi Phase 1: Concept and feasibility assessment Phase 2: R&D, demonstration, market replication Phase 3: Commercialisation Input: Idea/Concept: "Business Plan 1" (~ 10 pages) 10% budget Activities: Feasibility of concept Risk assessment IP regime Partner search Design study Pilot application etc. Output: elaborated "Business plan 2" Input: "Business plan 2" plus description of activities under Phase 2 (~ 30 pages) 88% budget Activities: Development, prototyping, testing, piloting, miniaturisation, scaling-up, market replication, research Output: "investor-ready Business plan 3" Promote instrument as quality label for successful projects Facilitate access to private finance Support via networking , training, information, addressing i.a. IP management, knowledge sharing, dissemination SME window in the EU financial facilities (debt facility and equity facility) 10% success 30-50% success Lump sum: € ~ 6 months M€ EC funding ~ 12 to 24 months No direct funding

14 Caratteristiche dello strumento PMI
in H2020 Indirizzato a tutti i tipi di PMI innovative che presentino una forte volontà di crescere, svilupparsi e internazionalizzarsi Solo PMI potranno richiedere finanziamenti Possibile partecipazione PMI da sola (ma collaborazione consigliabile) Competitivo, dimensione EU  solo migliori idee accedono alla fase 1 Orientato al mercato; attività close-to-market: finanziamento al 70%, TRL min 6 Costituito da 3 fasi – piu' il coaching Possibilità di entrare nella fase 1 e fase 2 Applicato in tutte le 'societal challenges' e 'key enabling technologies' 14

15 Da dove si parte: Technology Readiness Level*
TRL 1 – basic principles observed TRL 2 – technology concept formulated TRL 3 – experimental proof of concept TRL 4 – technology validated in lab TRL 5 – technology validated in relevant environment (industrial environment in the case of Key Enabling Technologies) TRL 6 – technology demonstrated in relevant environment (industrial environment in the case of Key Enabling technologies) TRL 7 – system prototype demonstration in operational environment TRL 8 – system complete and qualified TRL 9 – actual system proven in operational environment (competitive manufacturing in the case of Key Enabling Technologies or in Space) *parametri mutuati dal settore Spazio (NASA)
