Technology Platforms
Website: cordis.europa.eu/technology-platforms/home_en.html
European Technology Platforms (ETPs):
- Provide a framework for stakeholders, led by industry, to define research and
development priorities, timeframes and action plans on a number of strategically
important issues where achieving Europe's future growth, competitiveness and
sustainability objectives is dependent upon major research and technological
advances in the medium to long term.
- Play a key role in ensuring an adequate focus of research funding on areas
with a high degree of industrial relevance, by covering the whole economic value
chain and by mobilising public authorities at national and regional levels. In
fostering effective public-private partnerships, technology platforms have the potential
to contribute significantly to the renewed Lisbon strategy and to the development of
a European Research Area of knowledge for growth. As such, they are proving to be
powerful actors in the development of European research policy, in particular in
orienting the Seventh Research Framework Programme to better meet the needs of
industry.
- Address technological challenges that can potentially contribute to a number of
key policy objectives which are essential for Europe's future competitiveness, including
the timely development and deployment of new technologies, technology
development with a view to sustainable development, new technology-based public
goods and services, technological breakthroughs necessary to remain at the
leading edge in high technology sectors and the restructuring of traditional industrial
sectors.
