ITEA 2 - 2
Laying the foundations for a software-intensive Europe with participation of SMEs
EUREKA Conference – EBS 2006ITEA 2 builds on the success of ITEAPrincipal achievements of ITEA
• First ever major initiative of European industry and national authorities to recognise the emerging importance of “embedded and distributed systems”
• Highly successful execution– Shared vision of the future of software-intensive systems (SiS),
underpinned by the ITEA technology roadmap – a landmark;– Solid project portfolio of some 85 projects and 9,500 person-
years, with wealth of results and successes;– Major contributions to European co-operation and cross-
fertilisation, bringing together more than 400 partners from large industry, SMEs, and academia from across Europe;
– Development of an efficient and effective organisation with lean and industrial strength procedures, and with overheads of well under 1%.

EUREKA Conference – EBS 2006 ITEA 2 vision
‘Europe to maintain leadership in embedded software-intensive systems and services building on key European strengths and industries’
Solutions / services
Differentiation software
Communications infrastructure
Real-time infrastructure
Recognising and responding to:• the move from a product-oriented to a services-oriented world• ‘time-to-market’, i.e. INNOVATION, is make or break• the even more crucial role of SMEs and academia• strong ERA cooperation being mandatory (seizing FP7 opportunity)• digital convergence is the name of the game

ITEA 2 - 4
Laying the foundations for a software-intensive Europe with participation of SMEs
EUREKA Conference – EBS 2006
Strategies (1)
• Changing the battleground in ICT primarily to the so-called ‘secondary industries’, building on key European strengths and industries – i.e. to embedded software and services;
• Mounting an industry-driven pre-competitive R&D&D initiative– now even stronger – for a sustained build-up of European capabilities in software-intensive systems and services;
• Maximise and leverage the growing importance of SMEs to increase the momentum of the initiative, from an already high participation level (‘best in class’).

ITEA 2 - 5
Laying the foundations for a software-intensive Europe with participation of SMEs
EUREKA Conference – EBS 2006
Strategies (2)
• Foster and leverage the impact of academia/research, first of all in continuing the solid application-oriented grounding of the programme but, in addition, intensifying co-operative research and transfer
• Push the envelope on programme agility aggressively across all levels and all procedures to address better the overarching issue of time-to-market; first and foremost: speed-up CALL process.
