Towards the Implementation of an EU Strategy for Technology Infrastructures

cover
Technology Infrastructures (TIs) are facilities and equipment which are used to develop, mature, test, demonstrate and upscale technology to advance through industrial research and experimental development activities from proof of concept to technology validation in relevant environment. TIs are open to public and private users including large companies, SMEs and startups, and they play a key role for industry’s uptake of technology. Overall, TIs are essential to boost industrial competitiveness and to deliver on the green and digital transitions, thus calling for a high-level dynamism and improved quality of TIs. A recent publication on TIs suggests that “there is a critical momentum for the EU together with Member States to be more ambitious, exploring with relevant national and regional stakeholders a shared vision and jointly developing a European strategy for technology infrastructures to support industry scale-up and technology diffusion across Europe”. This recommendation has recently been taken up in the frame of the new ERA, with an EC Communication and Council Conclusions including targeted policy actions for TIs. The present Policy Brief provides recommendations drawn from TI managers and users to support the implementation of the ERA Action Plan towards an Integrated European landscape for TIs over the next three years.
