The
7th Framework Programme for Research (FP7, 2007-13) is the European Union's
main programme for funding R&D and supporting innovation. It has a total
budget of more than €50 billion, of which €7.5 billion will be committed under
the Work Programme 2012, to be published in late July 2011. Turkey is one of
the associated countries of FP7 and Turkish partners (academia, research
centres and industry) can participate in collaborative projects. The structure
of the programme will be outlined, with a focus on one of the themes,
nanotechnology, materials and production (NMP). Practical aspects of preparing
and submitting proposals and participating in projects will also be discussed.
Finally, the current thinking of the Commission on the future of EU research
and innovation funding after 2013 will be presented.
