Incentives for SMES participation into EU RTD
  What are the main hurdles that prevent SMEs to participate to European RDT and
what are the main solutions to be undertaken to enhance their participation in FP7?
 
  HURDLES AND POSSIBLE REMOVALS
 
 
The Scratch team has been working with SME’s in Aeronautics R&D, helping them to create projects suitable for EU funding. This has been successful in Framework Programmes 4, 5 and F6, with some €45 million obtained for SMEs across Europe.
 
The European Commission being now devising new rules in order to simplify the way for SMEs in Framework Programme 7, the document “Removing Hurdles” written by the whole SCRATCH team, intends to outline the difficulties preventing SMEs from being more involved in EU FPs RTD mechanisms and suggests modifications for FP 7.
 
Please have a look at this document and, should you have any comments or suggestions, do not hesitate to contact EURO INTER (SCRATCH coordinator) contact@eurointer.fr
Your comments will be analysed and transmitted to EC.
