FET in Horizon 2020
"Future and emerging technologies shall support collaborative
research in order to extend Europe’s capacity for advanced and
paradigm-changing innovation. It shall foster scientific
collaboration across disciplines on radically new, high-risk
ideas and accelerate development of the most promising emerging
areas of science and technology as well as the Union wide structuring
of the corresponding scientific communities."
COMMISSION PROPOSAL ON ESTABLISHING HORIZON 2020 THE FRAMEWORK PROGRAMME FOR RESEARCH AND
INNOVATION (2014-2020)
Not just ICT technologies
FET's mission
• To promote and support the emergence of radically new technology
areas that will renew the basis for future European competitiveness
and growth and will make a difference for society in the decades to
come.
• To shape European leadership in research and innovation on the most
promising such future and emerging technologies, e.g. by tackling
grand S&T challenges through a novel pan-european approach.
• To turn Europe into the best environment for responsible multidisciplinary collaborations on such future and emerging technologies.
• To initiate the development of European research and innovation ecosystems around such future and emerging technologies, as seeds of
future industrial leadership.

Initiatives in the past
FET Proactive
• Balance between continuity and new directions
• Provide the strategic sustained support over
longer time when appropriate.
• Creation of communities, for instance in, BioICT, quantum technologies, Neuro-IT, complex
systems
• Successful transfers for instance in quantum
cryptography, cognition, nano-tech, robotics,
bio-ICT
FET Proactives in WP1014-15
Global Systems Science (GSS)
• The challenge is to improve the way scientific knowledge can stimulate, guide,
and help evaluate policy and societal responses to global challenges eg
o climate change
o financial crisis
o Pandemics
o global growth of cities
• Policy challenges shall be addressed by radically novel tools for producing and
delivering scientific knowledge to the policy processes.
FET Proactives in WP1014-15
Knowing, doing, being: cognition beyond problem solving
• New foundations for future robotics and other artificial cognitive
systems
• Deeper understanding of non-performing aspects of social robotics
• Development and interaction in mixed human/technological settings
• Improved understanding of the impacts of the technologically enhanced
environments on the human behaviour, at the individual and collective
levels

FET Flagships
FET Flagships are ambitious, large-scale, long-term, science-driven,
goal-oriented, roadmap-based research initiatives tackling grand
challenges in S&T.
They are expected to:
• provide S&T leadership, transformational impact on science, technology and society
• lead to novel innovation clusters in Europe
• facilitate alignment of national and regional research efforts, thus increase the impact
of European research and innovation efforts
and will require:
• cooperation among a range of scientific communities/disciplines, with industries and
with the involvement of representatives from the civil society
• a long-term commitment of all key stakeholders sharing a common scientific vision and
under a strong leadership
• a joint effort of EU and national programmes to provide a large financial support
(~ 100 M€/year over a long period: ~10 years)
FET Flagships - Policy Context
Apr. 2009 COM (2009)184 ‘Moving the ICT frontiers’
"Launch at least two FET flagship initiatives by 2013"
July 2009 ISTAG report
"European Challenges and Flagships - 2020 and beyond"
Dec. 2009 The COMP Council
"invites the Commission to propose Europe-wide flagship initiatives in FET to tackle specific
science and technology challenges at the crossover between ICT and other scientific
disciplines"
Flagships Genesis
Graphene & Human Brain Project selected
Launch FLAG-ERA
FET Flagship: Graphene
Graphene, is a 2D material , a single layer of carbon atoms,
stronger than diamond, yet lightweight and flexible
and an exceptional electricity conductor.
The Graphene Flagship will bring graphene,
and related 2D materials, from academic labs
to industry, manufacturing and society.

Examples of products:
 electronic paper
 bendable smartphones
 enhanced solar cells and batteries
 lighter and more energy efficient airplanes
On the longer term, graphene is expected to give rise
to new computers and revolutionary medical applications
such as artificial retinas.

FET Flagship: Human Brain Project (HBP)
HBP will create the wold's largest experimental facility for developing the most detailed models of the brain
(from genes to mind), for studying how the human brain works and ultimately for simulating and developing
personalised treatment of brain diseases.
This research lays the scientific and technical foundation
for medical progress: identifying new drug targets and
treatment, in response to the urgent need to combat
brain diseases and their associated costs to society.
HBP will also produce brain-inspired ‘neuromorphic’
computing systems that could drastically reduce
power-consumption for super-computers and enhance
robots.
