Single set of rules
• Covering all research and innovation programmes, initiatives and funding bodies (art. 185 and art. 187 initiatives, EIT,…), but flexible to accommodate specificities where needed (through delegated acts)
• Coherent with the rules contained in the Financial Regulation (FR), but containing "derogations"

Research and Innovation Actions – NO RfP definition but description in the WP annexes
They are actions with Research and Development activities as the core of the project intending to establish new scientific and technical knowledge and/or explore the feasibility of a new or improved technology, product, process, service or solution
- may include basic and applied research, technology development and integration, testing and validation on a small-scale prototype in a laboratory or simulated environment
- may contain closely connected but limited demonstration or pilot activities aiming to show technical feasibility in a near to operational environment
• 100% funding rate
"Pure" Innovation Actions – RfP definition
"'Innovation action' means an action primarily consisting of activities directly aiming at producing plans and arrangements or designs for new, altered or improved products, processes or services. For this purpose they may include prototyping, testing, demonstrating, piloting, large-scale product validation and market replication"
• 70% funding rate (100% for non-profit legal entities)
Types of Actions – Research/Innovation
![Page 9: H2020: rules for participation - Camera di commercio, Torino · 2015. 10. 1. · H2020: rules for participation ... ktop/en/organisations/lfv.html . Process to grant and signature](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071406/60fb3833c3ac5269e61775b8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Overlaps
'prototyping', 'testing', 'demonstrating' and 'piloting' not specific to innovation activities; they are also used to describe research and development activities (100% funding)
• In the case of a Research and Innovation action, these activities are undertaken on a small scale prototype, in a laboratory or simulated environment
• Innovation projects may include limited research and development activities.
• Type of project expected, funding and Technology Readiness Level scale indicated in the WP topics
Types of Actions – Research/Innovation
