ENACT Flash Report 14: FCT Research & Innovation Landscape: Country Profile: United Kingdom

This country profile shows how, despite the United Kingdom’s (UK) exit from the European Union and subsequent delay in full association with the Horizon Europe programme, the UK has retained a significant involvement within the European FCT research and innovation landscape, demonstrating a commitment to the European research agenda and continued close cooperation in the area of security. Within Horizon Europe specifically, the UK has continued to be among the top five countries for signed grants and for overall participation by UK entities, demonstrating a strong commitment to the FCT research area in Europe. Overall, the UK shows a diverse set of expertise across policy areas, with a large number of stakeholders contributing across the security sector. Increasing engagement from end-users, such as law enforcement agencies, also ensures a high consideration of operational needs and requirements, maximising opportunities for exploitation.
