Eighth Progress Report on SMEs’ participation in FP7

:: Eighth Progress Report on SMEs’ participation in FP7 ::

The aim of the SME Progress Reports is to monitor the participation of SMEs in the Cooperation Programme within the Seventh Research Framework Programme (FP7). The report analyses the SME participation in Grant Agreements signed by end December 2011.

So far, the Cooperation Programme has spent in total 50.1% of the budget, amounting 15,750 M€ within the Thematic Priorities. Given the SME targeted elements in the Work Programmes 2012, the budgetary share of SMEs is forecasted to grow from the current 15.3 % to around 16 % of the Cooperation Programme by 2013. This represents 5.2 billion €. For the five Specific Programmes of FP7, an extrapolation exercise forecasts the total budget going to SMEs in FP7 to amount to 7 billion €, benefiting 17,000 SMEs in ca. 28,400 SME participations. This estimation is based on the average multiple participations by SMEs in FP7. The recurrence rate, being the average number of projects in which an organisation is involved, has increased to an average of 1.6 Grant Agreements per SME - demonstrating a positive trend in the interest of SMEs in FP7 - and might increase further.

As a specific feature, this report provides a more detailed analysis of the activity sectors of participating SMEs with a comparison among the relevant Specific Programmes. This analysis shows the different nature of the Specific Programmes: R&D performing SMEs have a high share (30%) in the Thematic Priorities of the Cooperation Programme, while in the programme 'Research for the benefit of SMEs', the manufacturing sector is represented in more than 40% of the participations. In the People Programme, namely the Marie-Curie actions 'Industry Academia Partnerships and Pathways' and 'Initial Training Networks', the R&D performing SMEs represent more than 40% of the participations.
