ENVironment Research infrastructures INNOVation Roadmap

Project description

Strengthening European research response to climate change

Rising environmental threats demand swift and innovative solutions. As the impacts of climate change intensify, the European Environmental and Earth System Research Infrastructures (ENVRI) face critical gaps in technology and services. The EU-funded ENVRINNOV project aims to co-design, test, and validate a common innovation roadmap. This strategic guide will enable the establishment and operation of an ENVRI Innovation Hub (EIH), fostering the development of cutting-edge technologies and services. The project's comprehensive approach includes analysing ENVRI services, defining innovation strategies, and engaging with ESFRI and R&I ecosystems. ENVRINNOV’s visionary initiative aligns with the European strategy forum on research infrastructure, accelerating the exploitation of EU research infrastructures as knowledge and innovation hubs, fortifying Europe’s response to the climate crisis.

Objective

ENVRINNOV will co-design, test, and validate a common Innovation Roadmap for the European Environmental and Earth System Research Infrastructures (ENVRI) community. This Roadmap will set a credible pathway for the ENVRI community to establish and operate an ENVRI Innovation Hub (EIH), for the future development of new state-of-the-art technologies and services. The project will also develop the tools, policies, and community necessary for the Roadmaps successful implementation.
To achieve this, ENVRINNOV will:
i) Conduct a comprehensive analysis of ENVRI services and technological needs & gaps, and define how to monitor them regularly.
ii) Define, digitalize, and promote the uptake of common ENVRI innovation strategies for new technologies/services development to meet emerging needs/gaps. This will be done by defining and testing innovation co-creation mechanisms between ENVRIs, industry and the scientific community and shaping them into common policies. The project will also develop an ENVRI innovation capacity-building programme, a digital platform to enable them, and an uptake strategy to promote them.
iii) Engage the ESFRI and R&I environment ecosystems to ensure long-term synergies and complementarities with ENVRI and gather feedback and support for the Roadmap. Finally, the project will plan for the timely and realistic implementation of the Roadmap, by also creating and validating with the ENVRI community an implementation plan, governance model and business model for the EIH.
ENVRINNOVs approach supports ESFRIs strategic objective to accelerate the exploitation of EU RIs as knowledge & innovation hubs. It will help strengthen the European response to the climate crisis and its associated scientific, societal and economic challenges, by increasing the capacity of ENVRIs to respond to them. It will contribute to a more effective EU RI landscape, and support better integration across thematic areas and with the EU Technology Infrastructure landscape
