Summary
Knowledge valorisation is crucial for boosting the Union’s industrial competitiveness internationally, strengthening its resilience and fostering its open strategic autonomy. Effective knowledge valorisation enables the Union to create and retain economic and societal value by turning research results to new innovative solutions, benefiting society and creating prosperity for all.
Detailed Call Description
The aim of this topic is to strengthen EU capacity to respond to complex and urgent challenges through research and innovation, increase industrial and economic competitiveness and make transdisciplinary research deliver for society. This entails testing the effectiveness of at least 10 transdisciplinary valorisation pilots to “be ready” for scale up across Europe.
The trans-disciplinary and cross-sectoral scale-up pilots will use mature results from research and innovation while simultaneously unlocking untapped value-creation opportunities and promoting collaboration of many different stakeholders from the early stages. Competition among the 10 pilots may be promoted to enhance their quality and help identify the highest potential impact to the Union’s industrial competitiveness, for example through a voting -based mechanism. In the preparatory to the potential scale-up phase, the pilots will also provide new insights to the possibilities and challenges of transdisciplinary approaches to address complex challenges and to the skills, resources and tools needed. Within the scope of the topic are also targeted trainings for cross-disciplinary projects with scale-up potential, as well as other methodological tools and guidelines. This may also include best practices in harnessing the power of cross-disciplinary and cross-sectoral collaboration to enhance capacity, drive innovation, and unlock new opportunities for value creation across industry, academia, and the public sector.
