Definition of Definition of Research InfrastructuresResearch Infrastructures
"Facilities", "resources" or "services" that are needed by the scientific community for the development of leading-edge research in the most efficient manner at EU level, as well as for knowledge transmission, knowledge exchanges and knowledge preservation;
covers major equipments, collections, archives and structured information, enabling ICT-based infrastructures, and any other entity of a unique nature used for research.

Evaluation criteria
General criteria:
– Relevance to the objectives of the programme
– Scientific and Technological excellence
– Quality of the management
– European added value
FP7 – June 2005 35
Relevance to the objectives of the programme
Existing research infrastructures
World class service provided
Integrating effect (e.g. « Joint » research)
Project answers a need from the scientific community at a European scale
New opportunities of access, with « peer review »
FP7 – June 2005 36
Scientific and Technological excellence
Enables users to conduct high quality research
Joint Research Activities are scientifically and technologically innovative
FP7 – June 2005 37
Quality of the management
Objectives: sound, clearly defined, and justified
Appropriate structure of project management and competences of the participants, that enable objectives to be reached
Adequacy of the requested resources
FP7 – June 2005 38
European added value
Infrastructures can attract users from other countries than operator’s countries
Results of the project can improve access to the corresponding pool of European infrastructures
Structuring effect on European research

Under "Convergence" Objective SF can support RTD and education infrastructure, equipment and instrumentation
Both in publicly funded research institutions as well as businesses
Condition that there is a direct link to regional economic development objectives
FP7 – June 2005 43
Typology of eligible actions
Infrastructures : business parks, innovation centres, incubators, research centres, etc.
Networks : development of clusters, competence networks, co-operation between university and SMEs, technology transfers
Innovative projects : transfer of new technology to business, start-ups, spin-offs (researchers into entrepreneurs), or straightforward research projects
Environment for Innovation : encourage innovation in SMEs e.g. marketing, financing, consulting, etc.
FP7 – June 2005 44
SF Programming system 2007-2013
1. Community Strategic Guidelines Guideline II : "Improving knowledge and innovation for growth"
