EASME Data hub for Horizon 2020 Fast Track to Innovation projects

The Fast Track to Innovation (FTI) scheme was launched in January 2015. The Fast Track to Innovation (FTI) pilot aims to reduce the time from idea to market and to increase the participation in Horizon 2020 of industry, SMEs and first-time industry applicants. The Executive Agency for SMEs (EASME) has developed an interactive tool that generates information on companies & projects funded under H2020 Fast Track to Innovation pilot.

The Fast Track to Innovation (FTI) pilot should stimulate private sector investment, promote research and innovation with a focus on value creation, and accelerate the development of innovative products, processes and services. Consortia must involve participants from industry. Universities, research and technology organisations. Further innovation actors may also participate. Actors that can play a key role in the commercialisation process are encouraged to take part, such as cluster organisations, end-users, industrial associations, incubators, investors, or the public sector. First-time industry applicants and SMEs are particularly welcome.
