| Summary: | Horizon 2020 will be the financial instrument implementing the Innovation Union, a Europe 2020 flagship initiative aimed at securing Europe's global competitiveness. Planned to run from 2014 to 2020 with an €80 billion budget, the EU’s new Programme for research and innovation is part of the drive to create the conditions for new growth and jobs in Europe. It has been approved on 3rd December 2013, with many interesting new initiatives supporting the whole innovation process. Interlinking the new Horizon 2020 actions with the findings of the Dublin Open Innovation 2.0 conference findings and the Dublin Declaration for new European narrative for innovation we end up with very interesting new opportunities for all stakeholders in the innovation, including the societal dimension. In this short article I will elaborate some of the findings from Dublin Declaration and interlink those to the responses we see in the Horizon 2020 Programme.
