Over the past 6 months,
Advanced materials are key enabling technologies. They deliver the solutions to reach climate neutrality, circularity and sustainability. The Manifesto not only outlines the research and innovation (R&I) areas where they will make a difference to achieve the European green deal (reaching climate neutrality by 2050), but highlights the importance on how these materials should be developed.
With the Covid-19 pandemic,
The Manifesto is the first step in increasing awareness, leading to the expansion of funding capacities for advanced materials, aligning funding agendas and priorities from the EU, different Member States, and industry to move towards the same direction, and building a strong network of capacities & competences for advanced materials development in the EU.
More concretely, in the coming months the Manifesto should engage with relevant groups of stakeholders such as EMIRI (the energy materials industrial research initiative) to define a solid strategic R&I roadmap with key priorities. The set-up of a transparent and balanced governance body will also be critical, representing key sectors between public and private bodies and covering the different EU countries.
