FET Open
'Open is open': all technologies, no topical scope. Popular FET-hallmark scheme TRL 1-3 Attracts new disciplines and actors, including many
young ones and SMEs Numerous success stories A source of new directions and early signals Largely academic, with some high-tech industry and SME
participation Highly competitive!
• 1,8% success rate!
1. FET Open
40% of the FET budget in H2020 (>1B€). FET gatekeepers define the kind of research that FET is looking for.
• An end-to-end light and fast scheme:• Deadline free, open 24/7 • 15 pages proposal• 1 step submission, 1 stage evaluation • FET specific evaluation criteria

fostering novel ideas
Volumetric X-rays Extremely Low doseCase study: VOXEL
Full field imaging has been demonstrated in the visible…. What if we could do it in X-rays?
Computerized tomography as been a revolutionary tool in modern medicine
• It enables detecBon of tumors, internal lesions, etc.• X-ray tomography has found many applications beyond medicine,
such as micro analysis of material strains
High risk – High Impact
A disruptive approach to tomography It has the potential to reduce the dose of ionizing
radiation It has the potential to reach state‐of-the art resolution
for X-ray optics
Societal impact of low-dose During VOXEL: less harm for samples In the future: less harm for people
The importance of the consortiumAll the key competences can be found in the consortium
• X-‐ray imaging• X-‐ray metrology• X-‐ray tomography,
experimental and digital• Numerical reconstruction• Technology transfer, business
2. FET Proactive
A set of thematic initiatives on promising emerging research themes.
Building up a European pool of knowledge and new interdisciplinarycommunities.
Joint exploration or consolidation of promising future technologies.
Topics defined bottom-up (FET Observatory):
• FET-Open portfolio analysis
• Consultations
• Participatory engagement with industry and society
• Coordination and support actions
http://ec.europa.eu/digital-agenda/en/fet-proactive
nurturing emerging themes and communities
Balance between continuity and new directions• It can take time to mature an
avenue Creation of communities
• for instance in, Bio-ICT, quantum technologies, Neuro-IT, complex systems
Successful transfers• for instance in quantum cryptography,
cognition, nano-tech, robotics, bio-ICT
FET Proactive
FET Proactive 2016-2017• Area 1: Future technologies for societal change
• Being human in a technological world• New science for a globalised world
• Area 2: Biotech for better life• Intra- and inter-cell bio-technologies• Bio-electronic medicines and therapies• Cognitive neuro-technologies
• Area 3: Disruptive information technologies• New computing paradigms and their technologies• Quantum engineering• Hybrid opto-electro-mechanical devices at the nano-scale
• Area 4: New technologies for energy and functional materials• Ecosystem engineering• Complex bottom-up construction
• Towards exascale high performance computing• HPC PPP: To be coordinated with complementary work in LEIT and RI

High Performance Computing PPP The EC Communication "High-Performance Computing: Europe's
place in a global race", adopted 15 Feb 2012, describes an ambitious strategy for HPC, combining three elements:
a) Co-design of HPC systems and applicationsExascale HPC ecosystem developmentTransition to Exascale Computing
b) providing access to the best supercomputing facilities and services for both industry and academia;
c) achieving excellence in HPC applications;
Complemented with training, education and skills development in HPC

3. FET FlagshipsFET Flagships are ambitious, large-scale, long-term, science-driven, goal-oriented,
roadmap-based research initiatives, which are expected to:• provide a strong S&T basis for future technological innovation and substantial
benefits for society• help overcome fragmentation and increase the impact of European research
and innovation efforts and which will require:
• cooperation among a range of scientific communities/disciplines, with industries and with the involvement of representatives from the civil society
• a long-term commitment of all key stakeholders sharing a common scientific vision and under a strong leadership
• a joint effort of EU and national programmes to provide a large financial support (~ 100 M€/year) over a long period (~10 years)

Graphene, is a 2D material, a single layer of carbon atoms, stronger than diamond, yet lightweight and flexible and an exceptional electricity conductor.
The Graphene Flagship will bring graphene, and related 2D materials, from academic labs to industry, manufacturing and society.
Examples of products:electronic paperbendable smartphonesenhanced solar cells and batteries lighter and more energy efficient airplanes
On the longer term, graphene is expected to give rise to new computers and revolutionary medical applications such as artificial retinas.

This research lays the scientific and technical foundation for medical progress: identifying new drug targets and treatment, in response to the urgent need to combat brain diseases and their associated costs to society.
HBP will also produce brain-inspired ‘neuromorphic’ computing systems that could drastically reduce power-consumption for super-computers and enhance robots.
HBP will create the wold's largest experimental facility for developing the most detailed models of the brain (from genes to mind), for studying how the human brain works and
ultimately for simulating and developing personalised treatment of brain diseases.
