President Marcegaglia meets Commissioner Moedas

“EU industry and business strongly support the objective and architecture of Horizon 2020. For its next period, the EU framework programme must build on its achievements, in particular the three-pillar structure covering the whole research and innovation eco-system”, Emma Marcegaglia, President of BusinessEurope, stressed at a bilateral meeting with European Commissioner Carlos Moedas on 2 June. “Companies are committed to investing in innovative projects with a clear European added value”, she added. For this to happen, keeping financial support to all-sized companies in the succeeding programme will be of utmost importance. BusinessEurope recently published a number of key recommendations for the design of the next EU research and innovation framework programme.
