The contractual Public-Private Partnerships (cPPPs) launched in Horizon 2020 address research and innovation activities in areas of strategic importance to the European Union’s competitiveness and industrial leadership, and offer solutions for specific societal challenges.

Initially introduced as part of the European Economic Recovery Plan in 2008, the three research Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) on Factories of the Future, Energy-efficient Buildings and Green Cars, mainly supported by DG Research and Innovation, have proved under FP7 that they were helping the manufacturing, construction and automotive sectors, and in particular, the relevant SMEs, to adapt to global competitive pressures by improving their technological base.

Under Horizon 2020, the successors of these three PPPs and the new PPP initiative on Sustainable Process Industry are implemented as contractual Public-Private Partnerships. The Horizon 2020 Work Programme for 2016-17 includes opportunities for research and innovation activities under those four contractual PPPs, to develop clean technologies for Europe’s industrial competitiveness, leading to job creation and economic growth.
