Title	Study for the development and design of inducement prize competitions in key areas under Horizon 2020.
Description	New and innovative solutions are needed more than ever to address existing and emerging societal challenges. 'Ex ante' prize competitions are a proven way to achieve focus and progress in R&I through projects that are otherwise rarely pursued via normal grants and business processes in enterprises. To this end, the Commission launches a study to develop complete 'turnkey' inducement prize designs in key areas of the societal challenges. The study shall conclude with a minimum of 5 possible designs (containing proposed scenarios, rules, appropriate incentive schemes and media plans). The competition designs will have to identify advancements that are both feasible for the time-frame planned and sufficiently far from the state of the art to make them challenging. The designs developed by the study will prepare the way for running competitions in key areas under Horizon 2020.
