    La Commission européenne crée un « Observatoire des technologies critiques » pour favoriser l’innovation et les synergies

    La Commission européenne a présenté, lundi 22 février, un plan d'action afin de créer des synergies entre les secteurs de la défense, du civil et du spatial. Le commissaire européen Thierry Breton a souligné que le FED (Fonds européen de défense), dont la vocation est de pousser les entreprises du secteur à former des alliances transfrontalières, afin de doper l'innovation, représente « un moyen très puissant à notre disposition ». Des synergies peuvent être créées entre ce fonds et d'autres programmes de l'UE, dans les domaines du spatial, du numérique, de la sécurité intérieure, notamment. Le plan d'action de Bruxelles repose en particulier sur l'identification d'industries clés pour l'avenir. La Commission va créer un « Observatoire des technologies critiques », qui fournira des rapports bisannuels, visant à orienter les efforts sur quelques domaines ciblés. Les secteurs du cloud, des processeurs, du spatial et des technologies quantiques ont notamment été mis en avant. Trois projets sont déjà cités, concernant les drones, la connectivité aux réseaux par satellite et la gestion du trafic spatial. Le plan entend inclure les PME, les startups ou les petits centres de recherche, en les aiguillant au mieux vers les mécanismes de financement auxquels ils pourraient prétendre au-delà de leur domaine traditionnel. « Nombreuses sont les innovations qui sont nées dans des petits labos », a souligné la vice-présidente de la Commission européenne, Margrethe Vestager.
