The mission of Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) is to turn Europe's excellent science 
base into a competitive advantage by uncovering radically new technological possibilities in order to enhance European competitiveness and growth.

FET has three main lines of activity:

  • FET Open supports early-stage joint science and technology research around new ideas for radically new future technologies.
  • FET Proactive nurtures emerging themes and communities and supports four themes selected from a wide bottom-up consultation:
    • Global Systems Science (GSS)
    • 'Knowing, doing and being: cognition beyond problem solving'
    • 'Quantum Simulation'
    • 'Towards exascale high-performance computing'
  • FET Flagships support ambitious large-scale, science-driven research aimed at grand interdisciplinary S&T challenges.
    • The Graphene flagship
    • Human Brain Project (HBP)
