Evropska Komisija je pre 20-tak dana pozvala (Call 5) zainteresovane da šalju predloge za finansiranje ideja na neke teme vezane za Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), a unutar Framework Programme 7 (FP7)
Radi se o 732 Miliona Evra i ako se nešto loše nije desilo poslednjih meseci Srbija je ravnopravan učesnik.
Rok je 26 Oct 2009, a zvanična web stranica ovog poziva je ovde.
Iako je konkurencija sve veća ovo je i dalje jedan od najlakših načina da se dobije novac za R&D.
U mojoj firmi koristimo ispod 7% resursa da bi smo od ovakvih programa dobili više od 75% novca za celu firmu.
Po prirodi našeg posla mi učestvujemo uglavnom na ICT pozivima, dok se svi FP7 pozivi mogu videti ovde. (znanje, energija, međunarodna kooperacija, hrana, transport itd).
Moje intuitivno mišljenje je da je za visoko-obrazovne i istraživačke institucije iz Srbije skoro pa kriminalno ne mobilisati se maksimalno po pitanju učešća u FP7, a za mnoge SME firme velika šteta.
Odobren predlog donosi opušten rad sa mnogo pametnih ljudi iz Evrope, finansijsku sigurnost, česta putovanja i nova znanja.
Ovaj ICT poziv je na sledeće tematske prioritete (Objectives) (ICT program za 2009-10 je ovde i ja kopiram iz njega - naslovi ne treba da zastraše, projekti su kolaborativni, najmanje 3 institucije iz 3 države, zahtevaju se case-studies, tako da je institucijama iz Srbije moguće učestvovati u skoro vim tematskim prioritetima):
