Paragraph 8
8. ConcludAcknowledges that Pillar 2 is a strategic tool that enable pan-European collaboration, pooling resources and knowledge, aligning the research and innovation agenda of public and private stakeholders across Europe and attracting private investments. This is something that does no happen without EU funding and it represents a true added value of the EU RDI programmes. It is crucial to continue and strengthen supporting these collaborations, as they allow Europe to tackle complex societal challenges and integrate businesses into European-wide critical value chains. However, it also notes that Pillar 2 remains too complex; believes that the implementation of this pillar should be improved, simplified and streamlined; notes that the number of instruments involved, the unsuccessful implementation of missions, and the many budgetary shifts have resulted in unnecessary complexity which discourages applicants, and especially newcomers, from participating;
