The European Union’s new multi-billion euro research and innovation plan has been voted through by MEPs in Strasbourg. EU Commissioner for Research, Science and Innovation Máire Geoghegan-Quinn said Ireland’s aim of securing €1 billion from Horizon 2020 is an "ambitious but achievable target’.
Since 2007, Ireland has secured more than €500m from the EU’s existing research and innovation programme – €100m of which went to small and medium sized enterprises. The new programme, which runs from next year until 2020, amounts to nearly €80bn – a 30% increase on the previous plan.
