Calls for proposals for 'Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies (LEIT)'
Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies (LEIT) includes the parts of Horizon 2020 focusing on new opportunities for industrial leadership in Key Enabling Technologies (KETs), ICT and space. These are areas of key industrial competences determining Europe's global competitiveness. Aiming at new and breakthrough technologies, this part of the programme will contribute to boosting competitiveness, creating jobs and supporting growth. It will help to achieve the EU Industrial policy goals and represents an important component of the EU Strategy for Key Enabling Technologies. The emphasis is on areas of R&D and innovation with a strong industrial dimension and where mastering new technological opportunities will enable and drive innovation. Activities have been primarily developed with reference to relevant industrial roadmaps, including those of European Technology Platforms. The involvement of industrial participants, and of SMEs in particular, is crucial in maximising the expected impact of the actions. The funded projects will be outcome oriented, developing key technology building blocks, bringing solutions closer to the market, and paving the way for industrial and commercial implementation, including in areas of societal challenges. Proposers are asked to demonstrate how the exploitation of results will generate the expected impact and contribute to the European economy.To see the official call announcements, please consult: Biotechnology Biotechnology Nanotechnologies, Advanced Materials and Production Nanotechnologies, Advanced Materials and Production Nanotechnologies, Advanced Materials and Production Nanotechnologies, Advanced Materials and Production Nanotechnologies, Advanced Materials and Production Nanotechnologies, Advanced Materials and Production Nanotechnologies, Advanced Materials and Production Nanotechnologies, Advanced Materials and Production Protection of European Assets in and from Space - 2015 Protection of European Assets in and from Space - 2014 Earth Observation - 2015 Earth Observation - 2014 H2020-LEIT-Space - Competitiveness of the European Space Sector - 2015 H2020-LEIT-Space - Competitiveness of the European Space Sector - 2014 Factories of the Future Factories of the Future Energy-efficient Buildings Energy-efficient Buildings Sustainable Process Industries Sustainable Process Industries Applications in Satellite Navigation - Galileo - 2015 Applications in Satellite Navigation - Galileo - 2014 Information and Communications Technologies Information and Communications Technologies
