Programmes Enhancing EU R&I Horizon Europe

The Communication ‘Implementation of the European Research Area (ERA): Strengthening Europe’s Research and Innovation: The ERA’s Journey and Future Directions’ has been adopted on 22 October by the Commission.

The Communication takes stock and assesses the progress made since the previous Communication ‘A new ERA for Research and Innovation‘ (2020) in which the four key objectives are laid out:  

  • Prioritising investments and reforms
  • Improving access to excellence
  • Translating R&I results into the economy
  • Deepening the ERA

and identifies remaining challenges which set the direction for future activities.

More information can be found in the European Commission press release, including a factsheet on the Communication and the videos ‘The #EUResearchArea over time: 2000 until today’ and ‘ERA testimonials’.

EURHISFIRM - Long-term data for Europe

EURHISFIRM designs a world-class research infrastructure (RI) to connect, collect, collate, align, and share detailed, reliable, and standardized long-term financial, governance, and geographical data on European companies. EURHISFIRM enables researchers, policymakers, and other stakeholders to develop and evaluate effective strategies to promote investment, economic growth and job creation. The RI provides the tools for long-term analysis highlighting the dynamics of the past and the way those dynamics structure our present and future.

The EURHISFIRM European project received € 3.4 million in financing from the European Commission through the H2020-INFRADEV-2017-1 research infrastructures call. The project started with a consortium of eleven research organisations (including University of Antwerp) from seven European countries.
