6 *** European Research Council (ERC) Set up in 2007 by the European Union, the ERC stimulates scientific excellence in Europe by encouraging competition for funding between the very best, creative researchers of any nationality and age. The ERC is already seen as a success story for Europe. The ERC supports leading researchers and their most innovative ideas with up to 2.5 million per grant. It operates by an 'investigator-driven', 'bottom-up' approach, which allows researchers to identify new opportunities in any field of research. The ERC has become a "benchmark" for competitiveness of national research systems. Since its launch, the ERC has funded over 5000 researchers. There are also several Chinese top scientists amongst the grant winners and hundreds of Chinese working as part of the ERC teams. The ERC is led by an independent governing body, the Scientific Council, and, since January 2014, the ERC President is Prof. Jean-Pierre Bourguignon. The ERC has a budget of over 13 billion and is part of the EU research and innovation programme, Horizon 2020, for which European Commissioner for Research, Innovation and Science, Carlos Moedas is responsible. This is the fourth time that the ERC participates in the Annual Meeting of the New Champions, Summer Davos. Since 2013, the ERC also attends the World Economic Forum meetings in Davos, Switzerland.
