European Commission Europe’s Future : Open Innovation Open Science Open to the World Reflections of the Research, Innovation and Science Policy Experts (RISE) High Level Group March 2017 “[First,] our actions must always reflect European values of openness and diversity, if we are serious about using European research and innovation for something greater than our own gain.
