Ständer, Philipp (2019) MISSIONS FOR EU INNOVATION POLICY WHY THE RIGHT SET-UP MATTERS. Bertelsmann Stiftung Policy Paper N0. 224 29 May 2018. [Policy Paper]
Abstract
The proposed introduction of research & innovation (R&I) missions in Horizon Europe, the next EU research programme, seems to be the most significant and ambitious change on previous programmes, especially given its implications for the governance of research projects. R&I missions are an innovation policy instrument where the government sets the objective of solving a certain technological or societal problem within a pre-defined time-frame that cannot yet be reached technologically. Governments may employ various policy instruments ranging from financial support for R&I activities to regulation to achieve this objective.
