EU Partnerships

With the introduction of Horizon Europe, the European Commission has reaffirmed the strategic role of Public-Private Partnerships in facilitating research for achieving priority policy objectives whenever possible. Partnerships enable to jointly develop among all relevant stakeholders a common vision and roadmap on how to move towards the intended goal. Such structured collaboration also allows for the different projects funded under the umbrella of the Partnerships to be better integrated into a wider picture favouring sharing of research outcomes and smoother transition between a project and possible follow-up activities. Clearly, there is a link between the H2020 STRIA roadmaps and the HE Partnerships. Any project carried out under the HE programme could be associated to one or more of the seven STRIA roadmaps and vice versa any project under H2020 could be associated to at least one Partnership. Currently, there are twelve Partnerships directly or indirectly related to Transport and Mobility.

The following table illustrates the relationships between the seven STRIA roadmaps and the Horizon Europe Transport-related Partnerships.
