European Commission - Enterprise and Industry - This website provides information on the EU's enterprise policy, entrepreneurship, business support, innovation, standardisation and e-business.
nicoleta susanu's curator insight, February 17, 2014 3:51 PM

EUR 42.5 million would be transferred from Cosme and Horizon 2020 programmes to the European Investment fund to increase SMEs access to EU funding. Two new budgetary lines were created for Horizon 2020 to reflect the different research actions financed
through this programme. The amendments also include the creation of a budget structure for Shift2rail a new European initiative to foster the competitiveness of the rail network infrastructure and products. The administrative expenditure (EUR 0.48 million) will be fully offset by a transfer from Horizon 2020. EUR 52 million is foreseen for actions supported by Shift2rail, which would be financed from Horizon 2020 until the initiative becomes fully operational.

ensure transparency in the selection of partners representing regional, local and other public authorities, social and economic partners and bodies representing the civil society, to be appointed as full members in the monitoring committees of the programmes.


provide partners with adequate information and sufficient time as a prerequisite for a proper consultation process


ensure that partners must be effectively involved in all phases of the process, i.e. from the preparation and throughout the implementation, including monitoring and evaluation, of all programmes


support the capacity building of the partners for improving their competences and skills in view of their active involvement in the process and


create platforms for mutual learning and exchange of good practice and innovative approaches.
