Goals (iii)IDEACFP

KEYMESSAGES(i)(ourexperience)

ü H2020 and ESIF have different timing and structure, harmonisationof the calls is no simple and easy. A better timing coordination is“mandatory”. Time, for business, is a serious thing.

ü Sometimes (most of them) Synergy means a double procedure.ü Impact of the mismatching on the rules governing the application of

H2020 and ERDF: State Aid and Eligible Expenditure. Similar project(even the same) should be analyzed using the same rules.

ü Incentive effect of the aid. Can we take into account the date of thefirst submission?

ü The concerns of uncertainty of the regional (or national) auditingauthority in the fully application of the compatibility between ESIFand H2020

KEYMESSAGES(ii)(ourexperience)

ü Seal of Excellence case: We need to talk about exactlythesame project (budget, scope, wp, deliverables, etc…)

ü Difficulties in joining the appropriate international partners.Synergies need a previous activity.

ü Complexity of project management and thefinancial/economic justification.

ü Convenience of aligning regional programs (and RIS3) with CScalls

ü Civil Servants have not got incentives to incorporate synergiesin the public programs. High Risk(but the mistake is higlypenalized)

KEYMESSAGES(iii)(ourexperience)

• NO substitution of national/regional or private co-funding to EUprojects/programmes under direct Commission management byESIF money (and vice versa).

• NO double financing: under no circumstances shall the same costsbe financed twice by any budget.

• The combination of funds is not the solution to all kind of problems,it's only an option.

• Make it easier. The easier (because simple) you make, the mostefficient you are.

• SINERGIES IS NOT ONLY A COMBINATION OF FOUNDSThe really important is the strategic planning of relevant actions tocomplement each other ,and to achieve goals which are not possiblewithout the synergies.

KEYMESSAGES(iv)(ourexperience)

But it is being a very interesting experience, and we think weare working about the way that we are going to work in thenext future.Thanks sinergies, we (and the enterprises) can arrive furtherand higher.Nobody says it is easy.It is our challenge.

THERE IS NO OTHER ROUTE.
