GEO Ministerial Summit in Mexico City (11/11/2015)
Carlos MOEDASEuropean Commissioner for Research, Science and Innovation
"Over the next few decades the international community will have to make many tough decisions. More importantly, we'll have to work together to solve global problems like climate change, hunger and migration."
"Insufficient or incomplete observing systems will only hold us back and lead to high environmental, economic and social costs in the long term."

What GEO does:
7
To accomplish this mission, GEO works to
(i) promote broad and open sharing of Earth observation data globally,
(ii) coordinate strategies and investments in observing capabilities;
(iii) develop an information architecture to enable sharing of data and information,
(iv) and develop new integrative initiatives to deliver services tailored to specific end-user needs, creating and fostering the connection between data providers and users.
PolicyResearch andInnovation
"The European Union, through its Horizon 2020 and Copernicus programmes will continue to be a driving force to help GEOSS reach its full maturity – a GEOSS which is designed for and accessible by all contributors and all users."
GEO Societal Benefit Areas
“GEO will advocate the value of Earth observations,engage communities and deliver data and information insupport of Energy and Mineral Resources Managementby enhancing the discovery, development andsustainable production of mineral and renewable energyresources; in order to facilitate substantial increases inthe share of renewable energy in the global energy mix,through usable, actionable information on resourceassessment, monitoring and forecasting of intermittentenergy sources, including solar, wind, ocean,hydropower, geo-thermal power and biomass.”

5.5 Developing comprehensive and sustained global environmental observation and information systems
Overall goal: Comprehensive environmental observation and information systems to ensure the delivery of the long-term data and information.
Support to policies: to assess and predict the condition and trends of climate, natural resources (including raw materials), biodiversity and ecosystem services, as well as to evaluate low-carbon and climate mitigation and adaptation policies
Incentive for business: to stimulate the smart use of strategic resources; to support the development of evidence-based policies; to foster new services; and to develop new opportunities in global markets.
Indicative budget for 2014 + 2015: € 60 Mio*, 2016 + 2017: € 60 Mio** Including actions in other Societal Challenges

Specific Challenge:
European data hub of the GEOSS information system
Global approach for sustained operation, continuity & interoperability of the GEOSS information system
Need also to strengthen the access to EO at regional level
To overcome the fragmentation of the European landscape of existing public & private EO data infrastructures
To harvest available resources from relevant GEOSS data infrastructures in Europe and in particular from the distributed Copernicus data infrastructures.

PolicyResearch andInnovation
GEO EXCOM Consultation with EO commercial sector
• GEO as an enabler to reach potential customers
• GEO as a platform for innovation – continuity from ground to space
• SMEs (not so much large companies) see GEO as an opportunity to be updated on the global trends regarding Earth observation
• Companies keen to engage in thematic areas of GEOSS such as agriculture observation through a win-win process
• In Europe no strong feeling for the concept of Corporate associate – not exclude direct interaction between GEO and Commercial sector
• GEO Industrial forum building on regional contribution would be favoured by the European industry
• For many companies difficult to be represented directly 16
PolicyResearch andInnovation
Possible future DG RTD activities beyond 2018…..
European strategy regarding the international dimension of
Earth observation and related R&I needs and benefits
Targeted investments for boosting the development of a
market of Earth observation services based on the
exploitation of GEOSS data.
Targeted R&I investments in support to the consolidation of
the GEOSS portal/GCI/DAB and of the European hub.
Targeted strategic actions in support to the 2nd 10-year
phase of GEO.

EU R&I for marketable global Earth observation information, services and products
Workshop, Brussels 21-22 September 2016
- Builds on "Engaging the Private Sector in GEO" workshop (September
2014) & Copernicus Data Value Chain workshop (April 2016)
- Forward-looking workshop, take stock of new ideas and business
models, necessary framework conditions, innovation deals.
- Three main themes to be addressed:
1. To characterise the current EO market in Europe and globally and
its future trends (new EO services and products);
2. To identify R&I actions in support to the delivery of new EO
services and products and definition of appropriate measures
3. To elaborate a mechanism for consulting/involving the European
commercial sector towards GEO and Copernicus.
