Monitoring and evaluation reports and flashes

This flash summarises lessons learned from the analysis of references cited in the six reports produced by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) during its sixth assessment cycle, and their link to the European Union Framework Programmes for Research and Innovation (FPs), notably the 7th Framework Programme (FP7) and Horizon 2020 (H2020).

This report is part of the deliverables for the evaluation study on the external coherence and synergies of Horizon 2020 within the European research and innovation support system. The study's objective is to evaluate the external coherence of H2020 in relation to the rest of the R&I environment, as well as identify evidence of and learn from strategic and operational synergies.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the external coherence of H2020 in relation to the rest of the R&I policy environment, as well as identify evidence of and learn from successful and less successful examples of synergies on the levels of programming and implementation of projects.

Over two thirds of the beneficiaries of Horizon 2020 projects were “newcomers”. This monitoring flash investigates the key characteristics of this population: what kind of entities they are, what programme parts attracted them the most, where they came from geographically, and whether they participated in Horizon 2020 Joint Undertakings.

Over two thirds of the beneficiaries of Horizon 2020 projects were “newcomers”: entities that were not funded under the previous Research and Innovation Framework Programme, FP7.

This Monitoring Flash analyses the self-reported patenting activity of beneficiaries of the European Framework Programmes for Research and Innovation (FP) between 2009 and 2018.
