These are SMEs and industries as well as existing clusters of excellence. Future joint programmes will be directed towards the interaction of academia and industry a critical interface for effective innovation. It is also very important to use the STI experience of regions successful funding clusters of excellence for joint calls. On a larger scale INNO INDIGO aims at contributing to ensure global competitiveness and to satisfy social needs through innovation. Another important task of INNO INDIGO will be to optimize the outreach of the project and facilitate the networking of funding organizations in Europe and India in order to discuss, prepare and implement joint calls on a regular basis. Therefore an open platform for funders will be implemented. A number of national funding agencies has been involved in the joint calls of the ongoing ERA-Net. This was important to gain experiences, approve and adjust tools and methods in existing strategies for the call management. Within the INNO INDIGO process of the future joint calls the strategies for an enhanced management structure will steadily analysed and optimized also in order to develop common governance principles. Further funding organizations in both Europe and India will be informed about the ongoing collaboration in order to raise their interest in a participation and therefore to enlarge the outreach of the project. In Europe this implies especially Member States as well as Associated Countries that do not have bilateral research programmes with India and would also benefit from the Innovation approach of INNO INDIGO. Furthermore scenarios for cooperation beyond the lifetime of INNO INDIGO will be developed.

Despite the proclaimed benefits of cloud computing for SMEs, the penetration of cloud technologies within European SMEs is still low. The CloudingSMEs support action is a joint effort of SME Associations, SMEs and clouding computing experts, which will act as a catalyst for the accelerated and successful adoption of cloud computing by European SMEs. The project will take a holistic approach to cloud computing by SMEs, which will consider both supply side (i.e. innovative ICT SMEs with expertise on cloud computing) and demand side (i.e. use of the cloud by SMEs) needs. The project will specify a vision for the optimal adoption and use of cloud computing within SME communities, along with a set of road maps for realizing this vision. In addition to the road maps, the project will focus on short, medium and longer term activities, which shall be undertaken by SME communities, cloud communities and policy makers towards a successful adoption of the vision. As part of these activities, the project will introduce an integrated toolbox that will comprise set of practical tools (i.e. guidelines, templates, blueprints) that could facilitate SMEs in their cloud related decisions. Along with the toolbox, the project will produce and document a number of best practices and policy development guidelines for the wider penetration and effective deployment of cloud technologies by SMEs. Likewise, the project will also produce good practices and policy guidelines helping ICT SMEs in successfully developing/promoting their niche cloud solutions. The project’s results will be offered to European SMEs through a single access point and in a multi-lingual and SME friendly way. CloudingSMEs will build upon recent roadmapping efforts provided by cloud expert groups, while it will actively contribute to policy agendas such as the European Cloud Partnership. Furthermore, it will act as a perfect bridge between FP7 and Horizon2020 in terms of SMEs involvement in cloud research.

Open data provided by the public sector constitute a significant opportunity for growth. The Vickery report estimates the benefits of open data reuse for the EU27 economy at 140bn/year. These financial benefits will be materialized through the establishment of a data economy, led by SMEs providing added value services by repurposing open public data. Geospatial data account for an estimated 80% of public sector information and are the most significant category of open data due to their high production, procurement and update costs, as well as their relevance in multiple domains. Despite their importance, they are increasingly difficult to reuse especially in a cross-boundary multilingual context. PublicaMundi will deliver the required methodologies, technologies and software components to leverage geospatial data as first-class citizens in open data catalogues, and deliver reusable software components and tools enabling the development of scalable, responsive, and multimodal value added applications from open geospatial data.

Last July, CERN announced the discovery of a new particle, confirmed to be the Higgs boson this year, responsible for the origin of particles’ mass. In March, the unprecedented resolution provided by the instruments installed onboard ESA’s Planck satellite, has revealed unexpected fluctuations in the temperature distribution of the primordial radiation of the Big Bang, providing an unprecedented insight into the origins of our Universe and a new picture of its composition today. Planck is painting a new picture of the Universe that is pushing the limits of understanding current cosmological theories. On Researchers Night 2013, we celebrate the multi-disciplinary teams of scientists who made these and other discoveries possible. We want to make the public aware that these are collective efforts involving thousands of researchers worldwide. We will offer the public at large in all its components, whichever their age and scientific background, the opportunity of discovering the "human face" of research via direct exchanges and discussions with the researchers, as well as understanding the impact of research on their daily lives. We will do it also by highlighting the cultural impact of these researches as well as the technological impact, focussing also on the medical applications of fundamental research.
