The Commission has launched the European strategy on research and technology infrastructures to boost Europe's leadership in scientific excellence and technological innovation. To remain a frontrunner in the global race for science and innovation, Europe must reinforce decisively its research and technology infrastructures and make them even more integrated and accessible to a wider range of users.
The strategy ensures that scientists, researchers, innovators, and industry have easy access to Europe's cutting-edge facilities, high-quality data and tailored services. It also aims to encourage world-class researchers and innovators to ‘Choose Europe'.
From top laboratories and pilot production lines to cutting-edge equipment like particle accelerators and clean rooms, Europe's world-class research infrastructures are the backbone of Europe's research and innovation ecosystem. They support the entire innovation cycle from frontier research to market-ready innovation, thereby bolstering Europe's industrial competitiveness and technological sovereignty.
