MOSAIC (Support Action ID 612076)
 Submitted in January 2013 within FP7 ICT call 10:
International partnership building and support to dialogues –
Horizontal International Cooperation Actions
 Project start: January 2014 / Project end: December 2015.
 MOSAIC aims to foster cooperation on R&D and Innovation
between Europe and Mediterranean Region on Information
and Communication Technologies (ICT) and how ICT can
support common EU-MENA Societal challenges: Health and
wellbeing, Food and agriculture, Clean Energy, Green
Integrated Transport, Climate Change and Secure Societies.
Main focus: Technology Platforms (TPs) as key
instruments for ICT Cooperation and Networking
between Mediterranean countries and Europe

3
Background: Technology Platforms (TP)
 The concept of TP was introduced in 2003 in Europe.
 EC Communication, “Industrial Policy in an Enlarged Europe”,
COM 2002, 714 final. “Foster marketplaces for cooperation
between stakeholders and work out a long-term strategic plan for
R&D for specific technologies involving major economic or
societal challenges ... They would ensure synergy between
public authorities, users, regulators, industry, consumers, and
poles of excellence viewed as places where basic research and
technology transfer are closely linked”
 European Technology Platforms (ETPs) have proven to be key
instruments to achieve those goals.
 Many ETPs are currently running, and some already support
Horizon 2020 topics: ICT, Energy, Transport, etc.

MOSAIC Vision
 MOSAIC proposes the creation of 2 Mediterranean
Technology Platforms (MEDTPs) covering:
 Maghreb countries Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Libya.
 Mashriq countries (Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestinian
administrated areas, Syria Arab Republic Syria).
 Create a Global Strategy for EU-MED cooperation in the field
of ICT exploiting the potential of the different regional
strategies.
 Produce a Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA)
with main topics of interest for research and innovation for
Maghreb and Mashriq regions.
 Support the dialogue between MED-TPs and existing
European Technology Platforms (ETPs).

7
Mapping of MOSAIC with H2020
 1 - Excellent Science
 2 - Industrial Leadership
 2.1 Build leadership in enabling and industrial technologies:
- Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)
- Nanotechnologies
- Advanced Materials
- Biotechnology
- Advanced Manufacturing and Processing
- Space
 2.2 Facilitate access to risk finance.
 2.3 Support innovation in Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises.
 3 - Societal Challenges
 3.1 Health, demographic change and wellbeing;
 3.2 Food security, sustainable agriculture, marine and maritime research and the bio-
economy;
 3.3 Secure, clean and efficient energy;
 3.4 Smart, green and integrated transport;
 3.5 Climate action, resource efficiency and raw materials;
 3.6 Inclusive, innovative and secure societies.

6 objectives
 Objective 1: Identify potential areas of cooperation between
Europe and MED countries around the thematic areas of ICT
and ICT applied to the following societal challenges: FOOD,
ENERGY, HEALTH, TRANSPORT, CLIMATE, SECURE
SOCIETIES.
 Objective 2: Identify key stakeholders to launch and run
Technology Platforms in MED countries including representatives
from industrial (large companies and SMEs) and academic
sectors (Universities and Technological Centres).
 Objective 3: Create Technology Platforms in MED countries,
including the production of both organizational documents
(governance, structure, etc.) and technical documents (Vision,
Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda, Roadmap), as
tools to set up sustainable scientific cooperation with Europe.

9
6 objectives
 Objective 4: Create a Global Strategy for EU-MED cooperation
in the field of ICT, considering also alliances and contributions
from the ICT sector to other sectors (FOOD, ENERG etc).
 Objective 5: Link MEDTPs with European counterparts for
permanent exchange of information (FP7, Horizon 2020) and
under relevant third country programmes. Clustering and
Networking tools between ETPs and MED-TPs. Training
courses to MED partners.
 Objective 6: Increase awareness on the cooperation between
Europe and MED countries on common R&D priorities in ICT,
FOOD, ENERGY, etc, e.g. events, dialogue meetings, General
Assemblies, Newsletters, etc.

10
MOSAIC Strategy: engage the industry
 Strategy: to engage the industry in the two Technology
Platforms in Maghreb and Mashriq since the very beginning of
the creation of the TPs as TPs should be industry-led.
 The participating industries will contribute to define the Action
Plan (Vision, Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda
(SRIA), Roadmap) of the MED-TPs that will focus on their
business needs.
 The researchers will review the Action Plan to embed research
cooperation in a broader logic of innovation.

11
MOSAIC – Steps to engage the industry
 Mapping/cartography of the industry in the partner countries to
get the picture of the ICT industry presence,
 Inform relevant industries about MOSAIC and the first SRIA
output and give the opportunity to reply to a questionnaire,
 Gain interest from some of them, preferably big companies or
clusters/association/federations grouping ICT communities,
 Organize roundtable discussion meetings with selected industry
actively involved in the ICT and ICT dependent sectors,
 Make individual interviews with structured questions/discussion
guidelines with some selected potentially interested partners
future to get a SWOT analysis and/or focus groups with industry
representatives.
 Build on survey and round table discussion results and
individual negotiations by MOSAIC partners to develop the
SRIA, the vision and a roadmap together with interested
industrial players.

12
Creation and Launch of MED Technology
Platforms (Maghreb and Mashriq)
 Basis for the TP set-up : results of the SRIA survey
 Methodology :
Consultation processes in MPC countries shared between MOSAIC and Med-
Dialogue
Strong focus on H2020 topics and the objective of MOSAIC to create 2 TPs
Interviews/data collection during 2 years project lifetime
Cyber research and Mapping to engage the industry
Events: 1st focus event of MED-Dialogue, 1st Arab Big data initiative, Launch
MOSAIC Maghreb, Launch MOASAIC Mashriq , etc.

Results in Maghreb region:
Information and data intelligence analysis and identification
of MED key Stakeholders
Situation for ICT - General overview
 In the Maghreb region, the ICT is among the most
dynamic sectors and has a promising potential of growth.
The multiple success stories justify this and show the
existence of a software industry able to innovate and
export its know-how.
 At this level, the Maghreb countries have competencies
that are internationally approved as well as active on the
ICT world market.
15

16
Situation of industry and academia
 All Maghreb countries are aware of the strategic interest of ICT
by providing them a central place in government programs
 However, a line of development is nestled in the research and
development programs and our countries could benefit from
cooperation agreements with the preferred strategic partner
represented by the EU. This is the same conclusion in the
different Maghreb countries including Algeria, Tunisia and
Libya.
 MOSAIC to deal with that:
