(27) Pursuant to Article 349 of the TFEU, the Union's outermost regions are entitled to specific measures (taking into account their structural, social and economic situation) regarding access to horizontal Union programmes. The Programme should therefore take into account the specific characteristics of those regions in line with the Commission's Communication on 'A stronger and renewed strategic partnership with the EU's outermost regions' (COM (2017) 623 final) as endorsed by the Council on 12 April 2018. Less developed regions will be also considered in some parts of Horizon Europe as for example in the Sharing Excellence Programme. The criteria for selecting these regions should consider the criteria of European Structural and Investment Funds and the Innovation Scoreboard regional indicator.

(5) Open science, including open access to scientific publications and research data, has the potential to increase the quality, impact and benefits of science and to accelerate the advancement of knowledge by making it more reliable, more efficient and accurate, better understandable by society and responsive to societal challenges. Provisions should be laid down to ensure that beneficiaries provide open access to peer-reviewed scientific publications, research data and other research outputs in an open and non- discriminatory manner, free of charge and as early as possible in the dissemination process, and to enable their widest possible use and re-use. More emphasis should in particular be given to the responsible management of research data, which should comply with the FAIR principles of ‘Findability’, ‘Accessibility’, ‘Interoperability’ and ‘Reusability’, notably through the mainstreaming of Data Management Plans. Where appropriate, bBeneficiaries should make use of the possibilities offered by the European Open Science Cloud and adhere to further open science principles and practices.

(8a) The focus towards the citizen has been identified as a central goal for Horizon Europe. Therefore, the engagement with society will not only be allowed in Horizon Europe but fostered by different means. In this context, Horizon Europe fosters responsible research and innovation as a cross- cutting element looking for building effective cooperation between science and society. It allows all societal actors (researchers, citizens, policy makers, business, third sector organisations etc.) to work together during the whole research and innovation process in order to better align both the process and its outcomes with the values, needs and expectations of European society.

(11) Full eEngagement of industry in the Programme, at all levels from the individual entrepreneur and small and medium-sized enterprises to large scale enterprises, should constitute one of the main channels through which the Programme's objectives are to be realised, specifically towards the creation of sustainable jobs and growth. Industry should contribute to the perspectives and priorities established through the strategic planning process which should support the development of work programmes. Such engagement by industry should see its participation in the actions supported at levels at least commensurate with those under the previous framework programme Horizon 2020 established by Regulation (EU) No 1291/2013 of the European Parliament and the Council13 ('Horizon 2020'). __________________ 13 and should accomplish with the Barcelona Conclusions13a that state that overall spending on R&D and innovation in the Union should be increased with the aim of approaching 3% of GDP by 2010 and where two-thirds of this investment should come from the private sector. __________________ 13 13a http://ec.europa.eu/invest-in- research/pdf/download_en/barcelona_eur opean_council.pdf

(13) The Programme should support research and innovation in an integrated manner, respecting all relevant provisions of the World Trade Organisation. The concept of research, including experimental development should be used in accordance with the Frascati Manual developed by the OECD, whereas the concept of innovation should be used in accordance with the Oslo Manual developed by the OECD and Eurostat, following a broad approach that covers social innovation, design and creativity. The OECD definitions regarding Technological Readiness Level (TRL) should continue, as in the previous Framework Programme Horizon 2020, to be taken into account in the classification of technological research, product development and demonstration activities, and the definition of types of action available in calls for proposals. In principle grants should not be awarded for actions where activities go above TRL 8. The work programme for a given call under the pillar 'GlobSocietal Challenges and Industrial Competitiveness' could allow grants for large-scale product validation and market replication.

(19a) SME should be at the centre of the Pilar III. According to Eurostat data1a, SME make up over 99 % of all enterprises in all EU countries and in Norway. They account for around two-thirds of total employment, ranging from 53 % in the United Kingdom to 86 % in Greece. SME contribute 57 % of value added in the EU. SME are thus a very important part of the European economy. __________________ 1a http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics- explained/index.php/Statistics_on_small_ and_medium-sized_enterprises

(19b) Horizon Europe is the largest public R&D funding program in the world and should be, as far as the industry is concerned, mainly focused on SME. The definition of SME should be updated to ease their access to public support as mentioned in Resolution of the European Parliament on the definition of SME to prevent larger players from attempting to create artificial corporate structures to take advantage of the SME definition, which would lead to a system in which the available support is wrongly and more widely distributed and hence not available to SME in need.

(21) The EIC through its instruments – Pathfinder and Accelerator – should aim at identifying, developing and deploying breakthrough market creating technological and social innovations and supporting their rapid scale-up to EU and international levels. Through coherent and streamlined support to breakthrough innovation the EIC should fill the current vacuum in public support and private investment for breakthrough innovation. The instruments of the EIC call for dedicated legal and management features in order to reflect its objectives, in particular market deployment activities for both, technological and social innovations.

(22) Through EIC blended finance, the Accelerator should bridge the “valley of death” between research, pre-mass commercialisation and the scaling-up of companies. In particular, the Accelerator should provide support to operations presenting such technological or market risks that they are not considered as bankable and cannot leverage significant investments from the market, hence complementing the InvestEU programme established by Regulation …15 .. Notwithstanding, 75 % of the budget allocated to EIC will be in the form of grants. There are many SME (i.e. newly created spin off and start ups) without economic history that allow them to be recipients of a loan. __________________ 15

Recital 23
(23) The EIT, primarily through its Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs), should aim at strengthening innovation ecosystems that tackle globsocietal challenges, by fostering the integration of business, research, higher education and, design, entrepreneurship, civil society and citizens. The EIT should foster innovation in its activities and should support the integration of higher education within the innovation ecosystem, in particular by: stimulating entrepreneurial education, fostering strong non- disciplinary collaborations between industry and, academia and society; and identifying prospective skills for future innovators to address globsocietal challenges, which includes advanced digital and innovation skills. Support schemes provided by the EIT should benefit to EIC beneficiaries, while start-ups emerging from EIT KICs should have access to EIC actions. While the EIT’s focus on innovation ecosystems should make it naturally fit within the pillar 'Open Innovation', the planning of its KICs should be aligned through the strategic planning process with the pillar 'Glob Societal Challenges and Industrial Competitiveness'. KICs should also put a focus on the integration of social entrepreneurship and social innovation skills, and should seek to create greater diversity and inclusion of stakeholders in the R&I community.

(25) The Programme should promote and integrate cooperation with third countries and international organisations and initiatives based on common interest, mutual benefit and global commitments to implement the UN SDGs. International cooperation should aim to strengthen the Union's research and innovation excellence, attractiveness and economic and industrial competitiveness, to tackle globsocietal challenges, as embodied in the UN SDGs, and to support the Union's external policies. An approach of general opening for international participation and targeted international cooperation actions should be followed, including through appropriate eligibility for funding of entities established in low to middle income countries. At the same time, association of third countries to the Programme should be promoted.

(26) With the aim of deepening the relationship between science and society and maximising benefits of their interactions, the Programme should engage and involve citizens and civil society organisations in co-designing and co- creating responsible research and innovation agendas and contents, promoting science education, making scientific knowledge publicly accessible, and facilitating participation by citizens and civil society organisations in its activities. It should do so across the ProgrammeHorizon and through a dedicated activitiesprogramme in the part 'Strengthening the European Research Area'. The engagement of citizens and civil society in research and innovation should be coupled with public outreach activities to generate and sustain public support for the Programme. The programme should also seek to remove barriers and boost synergies between science, technology, design, culture and the arts to obtain a new quality of sustainable innovation.

(28a) So far, none of the sectors, apart from the advisory sector, has the minimum percentage of 40 % of women has been reached. Greater effort is needed on gender equality. Cross-cutting gender mainstreaming should be implemented as gender equality should be seen and understood as being necessary to a more unified society and wealth through the inclusion of greater knowledge and other viewpoints and needs. The following actions should be thus undertaken: using gender as a tiebreaker criterion in case of the same score of proposals as well as the coordination by women of projects; assessing the gender impact of the proposals; and comprising gender perspective in their design of proposals (for example, clinical trials are mainly carried out with men when women have a different physiological response, and new technologies are also tested normally with men). An obligation on equal pay between men and women should be among the principles for the implementation of the programme.

(36a) The Horizon Europe funding cannot be a substitute for national and regional funding, but should serve as a lever to promote investment in R&D and to increase public and private investments in research and development to 3 % of GDP. A stimulus for this could be that national investment in R&D is not accounted for as investment in relation to deficit objectives. Private sector investment is also a need in order to reach 3% of GDP in R&D.
