  1. NATIONAL TECHNOLOGY PLATFORMS An unique opportunity to introduce a new approach to develop the construction sector Aleksandra Tkacz Ankara, 13th October 2006

  2. Why National Technology Platforms? • Promote country in Europe and faster integration into European construction world • Set up links with regional and local stakeholders • Improve the involvement of SMEs (drivers of innovation) • Mobilize the construction sector towards innovations • Define better a complete list of research needs • Identify and involve national/regional research programmes • Identify the gaps between national & EU regulations/policies that will enhance innovation • Identify and enhance national financial support schemes • Better access to the international projects, partners and founds (FP6, FP7, JETI, …)

  3. Role of National Technology Platforms • Become transparent in goals, approaches, research agenda’s, etc., for the different countries in order to learn from each other and spot points of potential cooperation • Activate direct participation in the Focus Area’s of the ECTP • Promote NTP’s in other EU countries (extend the network to possibly all EU member states) • Modelling EU regulations and policy’s to drive innovation • Contribution to / dissemination of ECTP deliverables • Promotion of European and National research projects on construction

  4. NTPs – what they can expect from ECTP? • Support in building the NTP • Link and contact with other NTPs • Attendance in the workgroups for the FA • Member Access • Partner for FP6, FP7, JETI, ... • Coordination • Propagate results • Allow new member countries to integrate faster into European construction world

  5. The public ECTP web site and the collaborative web space www.ectp.org User name:guest.ntp@ectp.org Password:guest

  6. NTP – a national initiative • ECTP links all NTP’s but they have freedom for structure, • areas of activities, programs, etc. • There are only three main conditions for NTP’s working: • industry leadership • input and output for ECTP deliverables (Vision, SRA) • national representations (involvement of all stakeholders)

  7. Steps in launching NTP • Choosing the leader of the NTP and its initiative group. • Definition of the goals of the NTP: generally NTP is responsible for the creation the construction development strategy. • Definition of the structure of NTP’s. • Definition of the membership of the different bodies (High Level Group – HLG, Support/Management Group – SG/MG, Focus Areas – FAs and other groups). • Definition and approval of the FA’s as well as choosing its leaders: actually there are 7 FA’s in ECTP (Underground construction, Cities and Buildings, Quality of Life, Materials, Networks, Cultural Heritage, Processes and ICTs). • Choosing the member of the NTP to represent its interests in ECTP

  12. REPORT PAPER DOCUMENT e - DOCUMENT

  13. Electronic data base (available on ECTP CWS)contains …

  14. … all questionnairesfilled in by NTPs (with possibility to print them)

  15. … reports on NTPs showing the statistics prepared on a basis of received data

  16. … lists of all NTPs’ representatives and contact persons

  17. Size of NTPs for the sake of amount of their members

  18. Participation of different types of organizations in NTPs creation (in %)

  19. High Level Group (HLG) Support Group (SG) Secretariat National Platforms Focus Area Plenary Assembly National Technology Platforms’ structures and forms • There are 14 NTPs having structure conforming to the ECTP structure • 2 NTPs do not have a structure yet • 14 NTPs work as an open network • Finnish TP works as a cluster • German TP works as a consortium agreement • In 10 NTPs on the top of organizationthere is a High Level Group • Support Group exist in 15 countries

  20. Focus Area Groups (FA) in National Technology Platforms – NTPs having FA compatibile with ECTP

  21. Organizations’ leaders in FA groups (except Denmark and Greece)

  22. National Technology Platforms’ activities - examination criterion • Number of organized activities • Engagement in preparing national documents • Promotion activities

  23. The most active NTPs in organizing activities > year 6-12 months <6 months NTPs age

  24. NTPs’ activity in preparing documents (ToR, Vision 2030, SRA) • France, Greece and Germany – 3 finished and approved documents • Denmark, Spain and Sweden – 2 finished and approved documents, 1 in process of preparing • UK – 2 finished (1 of them approved) documents, 1 in process of preparing • Norway – 3 finished documents waiting for approval, 1 planned to prepare • Slovenia – 1 finished document, 2 in process of preparing • Belgium – 1 finished and approved document, 1 in process of preparing • Poland – 1 finished document and 1 in process of preparing • Croatia– 2 documents in process of preparing • Austria– 1 document in process of preparing

  33. Scope of the Working Group • Exchange of information between NTPs • Getting the involvement of stakeholders at ECTP (SMEs, clients/users, …) • Inputs for ECTP documents

  34. Goals for NTP’s networks • To build the European networks for innovationin construction sector • Within industry • Of researchers • Within administration/public institutions • Within financial institution • Of users • To build the clusters and groups of interest for European innovation projects. • To exchange the experience and the best practice. • To create Trans-National Research Program

  35. Goals for links with ECTP 1. To build ERA for construction from all European countries 2. To build wide participation of all stakeholders and stakeholders in construction sector. 3. To exchange the information between ECTP and NP’s 4. To build the connection between RIS (Regional Innovation Strategy) and European Innovation Strategy for construction. 5. To create the connection between National Research Programs andEuropean Research Programs for construction. 6. To create the same high standards for quality of life in each European country. 7.To adopt the ECTP solutions in European countries. 8.To promote ECTP on the national levels
