Evaluation study of FP structuring – (1)
FP6 networks are characterised by a core periphery
structure dominated by a small number of closely-knit
organisations.
Industry plays less of a coordinating role and is weakly
embedded in the FP6 networks with the exception of IST
FP6 has resulted in more upstream than downstream
outputs
Performance decreases as project size increases
New Member State participation is dominated by a few
actors in Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic.
