Key messages of Innovation UnionAltogether 34 commitments
• Strengthening the knowledge base: ERA: mobility, infrastructures, skills, EU funding instruments
• Getting good ideas to market: financial instruments, VC, state aid, patent, standards, procurement, design, creativity, open access, model grant agreements and IP marketplace
• Maximising social and regional benefits: “smart specialisation”, social innovation pilot
• Pooling efforts for breakthroughs: European Innovation Partnerships
• Collaborating internationally: attract international talent, research infrastructure
• Accelerate national reforms & track progress: self-assessment, 3% target + Innovation indicator (fast-growing innovative firms)
Policy based on evidence:monitoring, benchmarking, analysing.

Public procurement of innovation• Public procurement in Europe: around
18% of EU GDP, i.e. € 2,000 billion;• Using public procurement for
innovation: new challenge for national, regional and local authorities;

Lead Market Initiatives in 6 sectors
New networks
Final evaluation of the Lead Market Initiative• LMI's novel architecture was an innovation in itself.
• Choice of instruments (public procurement, standards, regulation and 'complementary actions') was right and gave EU-added value.
• Action plans have mostly delivered. Impact found in 4 out of 6 sectors.
• LMI did not have a dedicated budget, but achieved with limited funds (total of € 153 m from FP7 and CIP in 4 years).
• Great involvement of industry and other stakeholders particularly in 3 sectors (bio-based products, eHealth and protective textiles).
4 key lessons learnt in the Lead Market Initiative:
1) Building bridges takes time
2) In practice, few tools for demand-side policy exist
3) Greatest impact may be medium-long term
4) Obtaining good visibility is essential for success
Next steps in demand-side policies (not mutually exclusive):
• Continue LMI approach: In innovation, industry (sector) and other policies Linking regional and national demand-side policies
• Connect demand-side and supply-side tools: Innovation Partnerships: aging, raw materials, agriculture, water Set up looser cooperation/ alignment forms (JTI+, LMI+ ?) Prioritise ‘societal goals’ or specify challenges (what level of granularity?)
• Further develop our demand-side toolkit in Innovation Union and Horizon2020: New forms of supporting public procurement of innovations Broaden to private demand: procurement, supply-chains, end-users
• Worry: Demand-side policies do not cost much, but need good human resources
Public sector innovation
• Mix of innovation actors: private vs. public
• Innovative public sector

European Design Innovation Initiative
The goal of the initiative is to:• raise the awareness of design as a driver of
innovation in Europe • enhance its role as a key discipline to bring ideas to
market transforming them into user-friendly and appealing products, processes or services by enterprises and public services in the EU.
Social Innovation
• Social innovation produces innovations that meet a social need by Workplace innovation: empowering people
Connect social economy, social entrepreneurs, business, charities, public sector, finance
