Abstract

The countries from Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) joined the EU after 2004, thus becoming the “new” EU member states. For over thirteen years they participate as full members in European Union (EU) framework programmes for funding research and innovation, including the current Horizon 2020 (2014-2020). Although their participation in the EU programmes for research and innovation is considered not different from the “old” EU 15 member states, there are however differences in terms of number of successful projects winning European competitions and of EU funding attracted for R&D activities. During the last years, however, there became apparent differences within the group of the CEE member states, some of these countries becoming indeed research-intensive. The present paper analyzes the participation of the EU CEE member states in Horizon 2020 from the perspective of EU and national funding for research, development and innovation activities, and European research projects won in Horizon 2020 competitions, with the aim of establishing which ones are the most active and successful in research and innovation nationally and at European level.
