Remarks

Horizon Europe – the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation aims at delivering scientific, technological, economic and societal impact from the Union’s investments in research and innovation so as to strengthen the scientific and technological bases of the Union and foster its competitiveness in all Member States including in its industry, deliver on the Union strategic priorities, contribute to the realisation of Union objectives and policies, contribute to tackling global challenges, including the Sustainable Development Goals by following the principles of the Agenda 2030 and the Paris Agreement, and strengthen the European Research Area. Horizon Europe shall thus maximise Union added value by focusing on objectives and activities that cannot be effectively realised by Member States acting alone, but in cooperation.

Horizon Europe shall:

— develop, promote and advance scientific excellence, support the creation and diffusion of high-quality new fundamental and applied knowledge, skills, technologies and solutions, training and mobility of researchers, attract talent at all levels and contribute to full engagement of Union's talent pool in actions supported under Horizon Europe,

— generate knowledge, strengthen the impact of research and innovation in developing, supporting and implementing Union policies and support the access to and uptake of innovative solutions in European industry, notably in SMEs, and society to address global challenges, including climate change and the Sustainable Development Goals,

— foster all forms of innovation, facilitate technological development, demonstration and knowledge and technology transfer, strengthen deployment and exploitation of innovative solutions,

— optimise Horizon Europe's delivery for strengthening and increasing the impact and attractiveness of the European Research Area, to foster the excellence-based participations from all Member States, including low R&I performing Member States, in Horizon Europe and to facilitate collaborative links in European research and innovation.

In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, contributions received from third countries (EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates, or other countries) for participating in Union programmes, and any other assigned revenue, entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter.

The related estimated amounts as well as the corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue are indicated, wherever possible, in the relevant budget lines.

In addition, and in accordance with Council Regulation (EU) 2020/2094 of 14 December 2020, external assigned revenue resulting from proceeds of the European Union Recovery Instrument entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of appropriations for this programme under this title for a total amount of EUR 5 412 000 000 in commitments. The amounts indicated in the budget remarks of the relevant budget lines under this Title provide information about the expected amount of legal commitments in 2021.

Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (Pillar II)

Remarks

This pillar is intended to support the creation and better diffusion of high-quality new knowledge, technologies and sustainable solutions, reinforce the competitiveness of European industry, strengthen the impact of research and innovation in developing, supporting and implementing Union policies, and support the uptake of innovative solutions in industry, notably in SMEs and start-ups, and in society to address global challenges.

To maximise impact flexibility and synergies, research and innovation activities shall be organised in six clusters, interconnected through pan-European research infrastructures, which individually and together will incentivise interdisciplinary, cross-sectoral, cross-policy, cross border and international cooperation.

This pillar consists of the following six clusters and the non-nuclear direct actions of the Joint Research Centre:

— Health,

— Culture, Creativity and inclusive society,

— Civil Security for Society,

— Digital, Industry and Space,

— Climate, Energy and Mobility,

— Food, Bioeconomy, Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environment.

Social sciences and humanities shall be fully integrated across all clusters, including specific and dedicated activities. Activities from a broad range of Technology Readiness Levels, including lower Technology Readiness Levels, will be covered in this pillar of Horizon Europe. Each cluster contributes towards several Sustainable Development Goals; and many of those goals are supported by more than one cluster. Gender equality is a crucial factor in order to obtain sustainable economic growth; it is therefore important to integrate a gender perspective in all global challenges.

Innovative Europe (Pillar III)

Remarks

This pillar shall foster all forms of innovation, including non-technological innovation, primarily within SMEs including start-ups, by facilitating technological development, demonstration and knowledge transfer, and strengthen deployment of innovative solutions.

This pillar shall also provide for the activities developed under the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), in particular through its Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs). Systematic synergies shall be ensured between the European Innovation Council (EIC) and the EIT. Innovative companies stemming from an EIT KIC may be channelled to the EIC to create a pipeline of not yet bankable innovations, while high potential innovative companies funded by the EIC that are not already engaged in one of the EIT KICs may be offered access to this additional support.

Whilst the EIC and the EIT KICs may directly support innovations across the Union, the overall environment from which European innovations nurture and emerge must be further developed and enhanced: findings in fundamental research lead to market-creating innovations. It must be a common European endeavour to support innovation all across Europe, and in all dimensions and forms, including through complementary Union national and regional policies (including through effective synergies with the European Regional Development Fund and smart specialisation strategies) and resources whenever possible. Hence, this pillar provides also for renewed and reinforced coordination and cooperation mechanisms with Member States and associated countries, but also with private initiatives, in order to support all actors of the European innovation ecosystems, including at regional and local level;

Additionally, as a continued effort to enhance risk-finance capacities for research and innovation in Europe, this pillar will closely link with the InvestEU Programme. Building on the successes and the experiences gained under Horizon 2020 InnovFin, as well as under the European Fund for Strategic Investments, the InvestEU Programme will enhance access to risk finance for bankable entities, as well as for investors.

— support the rapid scale-up of innovative companies mainly SMEs, including start-ups and in exceptional cases small mid-caps at Union and international levels along the pathway from ideas to market.

Where relevant, the EIC shall contribute to the activities supported under other parts of Horizon Europe, in particular in Pillar II.

Appropriations under this chapter are intended to contribute to the well-functioning of the single market for goods and services, including financial services, anti-money laundering and the free movement of capital, and to provide high quality European statistics on all Union policies, as per the purpose of the Programme for single market, competitiveness of enterprises, including small and medium-sized enterprises, and European statistics (the 'Single Market Programme'). In particular, the programme will support the design, implementation and enforcement of the Union legislation underpinning the proper functioning of the single market for goods and services, including financial services, anti-money laundering and the free movement of capital, as well as capacity building, coordination of joint actions between Member States and the Commission, and the international dimension of the internal market. It will also support women’s participation and contribute to the empowerment of all actors of the single market: businesses, citizens including consumers, civil society and public authorities. The Single Market Programme brings together six preceding programmes from different policy areas, notably the grants and contracts part of the Programme for the Competitiveness of Enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises (COSME), programmes on consumer protection, enhancing the participation of consumers and other end-users in financial services policy-making, the development of international financial, auditing and corporate reporting standards, measures to contribute to a high level of health for humans, animals and plants along the food chain and in related areas and European statistics. In addition, the programme includes several other budgetary lines concerning, in particular market surveillance, company law, contract and extra-contractual law, standardisation and support for competition policy, customs and taxation. The impact assessment showed that one single programme will create synergies contributing to more agile and efficient budgetary spending.

In accordance with Articles 21, 22 and 24 of the Financial Regulation, contributions received from third countries (EFTA States pursuant to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, candidate countries and, if applicable, the Western Balkan potential candidates, or other countries) for participating in Union programmes, and any other assigned revenue, entered in the statement of revenue give rise to the provision of corresponding appropriations and to implementation under this chapter.

The related estimated amounts as well as the corresponding article or item of the statement of revenue are indicated, wherever possible, in the relevant budget lines.
