Changes in the structure = 8 existing funding schemes are transformed into four new but recognizable patterns (ITN, IF, RISE, COFUND);

Budget (2014-2020) = 6.2 billion to achieve the following objectives:

  Acquiring new skills through excellent initial training of researchers;

  Encouraging excellence through international and intersectoral mobility

  Stimulating innovation through intersectoral transfer of knowledge (industry, higher education, non-academic sector);

  Better use of structural funds through co-financing activities

Key features of MSCA Open to all domains of research and innovation from basic research

up to market take-up and innovation services

Entirely bottom-up approach

Participation of non-academic sector strongly encouraged, especially industry and SMEs

Mobility as the key requirement - funding on condition participants move from one country to another

2014-2015: 10 calls foreseen -> one call per each MSC action per year + one call covering 2 years of European Researchers' Night
