Technology for a better Society RESEARCH FOR INNOVATION R&D project opportunities Typically three types of projects: - EU H2020 - Research Council supported projects - Bilateral projects 1
Partnering with Norwegian industry and public institutions is a natural implementation of SINTEF mission Introduce and Involve Norwegian partners (industry, public sector) to H2020 World largest R&D programme Support R&D and innovation in Norway through collaborative R&D and innovation projects 2
SINTEFs Mode of Operation From Basic Research to Market Introduction Focus on: Technology Basic Research Dissemination Applied Research Development Market Commercialisation R&D Results, Patents and IP Products and Services System Solutions Business Concepts Spin-off Companies 3

Project setup IPN NFR dekker opp til 50%, normalt 30-40% (BIA 40%) Eksempel 3 bedrifter bidrar med 1MNOK hver per år (In Kind) (ca 1000 timer eller 0,5 årsverk) NFR bidrar med 40% av tot: 2 MNOK per år Prosjekt 5 MNOK per år i 4 år (20 MNOK prosjekt) Innovasjonsgrad Innovasjonsgrad er et uttrykk for hvor betydelig innovasjonen er i forhold til state of the art på et område. Med innovasjon forstås verdiskapende fornyelse/nyskaping. Det vurderes hvorvidt det er en innovasjon bare for partnerne eller også i nasjonal og/eller internasjonal sammenheng. Innovasjonsområder: Nye eller endrede produkter/tjenester Nye eller endrede metoder for produksjon/leveranse/distribusjon Nye eller endrede former for ledelse/organisering/arbeidsforhold/kompetanse Nye eller endrede forretningsmodeller 14
Project setup KPN 2 til 4 Industripartnere Industri finansierer 20% av kostnadene (cash), NFR 80% Eksempel Industri typisk 150-300 KNOK per år Tentative budget: 250 KNOK x 2 partners x 4 years x 5 = 10 MNOK (NFR 8 MNOK)
