La ricetta di Lisbona: innovare per crescere
The Role of CNR and the New Frontier of Innovation Prof. Luigi Nicolais Sao Luis – July 23, 2012 1 Main Processes of Transformation Industrial System Brain Powered Man Powered Political System Devolved “Light” State One Centralised State Academic System 2 Self - Referential System Open System Transitions Acceleration of transformation Globalisation of economic systems and production Multi-ethnic social environment, glocal as new identity Science and Technology pushing economy Small and Medium Enterprises moving from subcontractors to technological partners Modernity is the synthesis of a global complexity 3 New Challenges To maintain competitiveness and leadership in local production systems by investing in immaterial factors and quality level with a low risk of imitation To connect enterprises and know–how experts on common platforms or interfaces, supported and oriented by the public sector onto specific areas of strategic interest To develop a knowledge – based Society 4 Competing on the global market In a global market the creation of knowledge and innovation are the prerequisites for growth and economic development. To increase knowledge is therefore the necessary condition for innovation. People and infrastructures must be involved so that the capability of transforming knowledge into innovation can be increased and innovation can be transferred into new products. 5 Distribution of R&I Personnel in Italy 120000 100000 80000 60000 40000 20000 0 6 Other employees Researchers Scimago Istitution Ranking 2011 7 CNR History • Established in 1923 • For a long time, CNR has acted as Advisor to the Government in matters of research and as a Funding Agency for University research grants • Since 1989 CNR is mainly a Research Performing Organization 8 Mission To perform research in its own labs To promote innovation and competitiveness in the industrial and social systems To promote the internationalization of research To provide technologies and solutions to emerging public and private needs To advise Government and other public bodies To contribute to the training of human resources 9 Capabilities Full range of scientific areas, except Particle Physics, Space and Astronomy/Astrophysics Premises widespread over the country 8500 full time employees of which 6000 researchers 2000 junior scientists completing their training One Billion annual budget Diffused cooperation with Universities and other research bodies on national and international basis 10 CNR Budget Institutional funds M€ 647 Competitive grant funding M€ 361 Grants from State Dept.s High Tech.

Public Institutions Talents Geographical concentration of people, enterprises and institutions which together participate to a high – level technological industrial area.

The main goal is that of increasing the visibility and the role played by districts on national and international level. The districts must be the main actors in the process of transformation of our national production model. 33 THE NEW FRAMEWORK PROGRAM: HORIZON 2020 3 Priorities 1. Scientific Excellence 2. Industrial Competitiveness 3. Societal Challenges 34 HORIZON 2020 PRIORITY n. 1: Scientific Excellence Instruments : ERC (European Research Council) Marie Curie Actions FET (Future Emerging Technologies) Research Infrastructures 35 HORIZON 2020 PRIORITY n. 2: European Industrial Competitiveness Instruments: 36 • Key Emerging Technologies (KET) • European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIIT) • European investment bank (BEI) • Structural Funding… HORIZON 2020 PRIORITY n. 3: Societal Challenges Health, welfare and demographic changes Food security, sustainable agriculture, marine- maritime research and bioeconomy Clean, efficient and safe energy Intelligent, integrated and eco-compatible transport Climate action, resource efficiency and raw materials Inclusive, innovative and secure society 37 Horizon 2020 INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION - International Cooperation is fundamental in facing many of the challenges of Horizon 2020 - Horizon 2020 will be open to Associated Countries, Candidate Countries to Join the EU, and other Countries selected on the basis of appropriate criteria ( relevant competences, long-standing cooperation, geographical and economical links to the EU..) - Appropriate actions to be put into place aiming at a strategic approach to international cooperation ( within the project “Inclusive, innovative and safe society” ) 38 THANK YOU 39
