A common European approach to the regulatory testing of nanomaterials (NANOREG)
Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2017,
The innovative and economic potential of Manufactured Nano Materials (MNMs) is threatened by a limited understanding of the related EHS issues. While toxicity data is continuously becoming available, the relevance to regulators is often unclear or unproven. The shrinking time to market of new MNM drives the need for urgent action by regulators. NANoREG is the first FP7 project to deliver the answe ...

Replacement and Original Magnet Engineering Options (ROMEO)
Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2015,
Permanent magnets are vital components in an enormous number of domestic and industrial devices, and they are particularly crucial within the rapidly-developing renewable energy sector, where the motors for electric vehicles and the generators in wind turbines require strong magnets with the ability to operate at temperatures well over 100°C. Currently, these magnets are based on the rare earth el ...

Global Value Chains as an Emerging Challenge for National and European RTD Policies (GLOVAL)
Start date: Feb 2, 2009, End date: Nov 1, 2011,
"Private enterprises operate increasingly through and within global value chains (GVCs). This affects not only the spatial distribution of production activities. The research strategies of firms are changing too and research linkages are also globalizing, and this change is further reinforced as more and more firms adopt strategies of “open innovation”. As a consequence, firms’ original locations ...
