  1. European Roadmap for Research Infrastructures Robert Jan Smits European Commission 21 March 2007 Greece Information Day on “Research Infrastructures in FP7”

  2. Research Infrastructures of pan-European relevance provide unique opportunities for: world-level research world-level training stimulating technology & knowledge transfer ensuring knowledge preservation … in brief for European Capacity Building Research Infrastructures and capacity building Information Day on “Research Infrastructures in FP7”

  3. Europe has a long-standing tradition of excellence in research and its teams continue to lead progress in many fields However our centres of excellence often fail to reach critical mass There is a need to bring resources together and to build a research and innovation area equivalent to the "common market"  Excellence and Research Infrastructures Information Day on “Research Infrastructures in FP7”

  4. ESFRI E urope an S trate gy F orum o n Research Infrastructures What is ESFRI? • A European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures • Launched in April 02 • Brings together representatives of the 25 Member States,7 Associated States, and one representative of the European Commission (EC)

  5. To foster an “open method of coordination” between different countries To discuss the long term vision at European level and to support the development of a European RI policy To bring initiatives and projects to a point where decisions by ministers are possible A stimulation and incubator role Role of ESFRI Information Day on “Research Infrastructures in FP7”

  6. Mandate from the Council of Ministers,November 2004 The Roadmap is the result of two years of intensive work About 1000 high-level experts were involved, from every MS and AS, from most fields and user communities, giving the end product credibility and quality. It is the beginning of an ongoing process The Roadmap Information Day on “Research Infrastructures in FP7”

  7. Addressing seven (7) fields of Research and major challenges From about original 200 proposals, thirty five (35) projects have been identified through several review stages Community produced ideas that will open up new and unexpected areas of knowledge Some fields should be stimulated for further integration The Roadmap (2) Information Day on “Research Infrastructures in FP7”

  8. Social Science and Humanities 6 Projects CLARIN CESSDA EROHS ESS SHARE DARIAH Information Day on “Research Infrastructures in FP7”

  13. Astronomy, Astrophysics and Nuclear Physics SPIRAL2 5 Projects European ELT KM3NeT SKA FAIR Information Day on “Research Infrastructures in FP7”

  14. Computer Data Treatment, Particle and Space PhysicsInputs from e-IRG, ESA, CERN EUHPC (e-IRG) The CERN Council strategy for particle physics The ESA Cosmic Vision Information Day on “Research Infrastructures in FP7”

  15. Several of the projects on the Roadmap require a global approach  ESFRI will enter into a dialogue with the OECD Global Science Forum for the identification, planning, discussion and monitoring of such projects Major players are Australia, China, India, Japan, Russia, South Africa, USA Global Dimension Information Day on “Research Infrastructures in FP7”

  16. Policy Makers Researchers Funders Industry Who is the Roadmap for ? ESFRI welcomes the active role which the European Commission intends to play under the 7th Framework Programme. Information Day on “Research Infrastructures in FP7”

  17. Implementation of the Roadmap: some of the projects will be in place already next year Strengthening the European Research Area: Research Infrastructures as majorcornerstones Continuation of the ESFRI work: ESFRI encourages constructive debate More is to come Information Day on “Research Infrastructures in FP7”
