TAIPI supported the FET Flagship Initiative and the two Flagships Graphene and Human Brain Project through Impact Assessment and Policy makers Information.

TAIPI supported the FET Flagship Initiative and the two Flagships Graphene and Human Brain Project through Impact Assessment and Policy makers Information. The general objective of TAIPI was to support and strengthen the FET Flagship Initiative, along with the two selected Flagships Graphene Flagship and Human Brain Project (HBP).

The specific objectives of TAIPI were:

• To develop assessment methodologies along with the required toolkits which are to be applied to HBP and Graphene Flagships respectively.
• To carry out the impact assessment of both Flagships and the Flagship policy by applying the specifically developed methodology and tools.
• To collect and provide information for policy makers and funding organizations participating to Flagships initiative.
• To transfer these developed toolkits to the Flagship, and to enable them to use these tools after the end of TAIPI, thus ensuring the sustainability of the project activities.

TAIPI assessed the impacts of HBP and Graphene, enhanced the flow of information from the Flagships towards policy makers, relevant stakeholders, and wider public.  It also improved the understanding of the impacts of the Flagships on science, technology, economy, and society and contributed to create a stable and structured environment for the benefit of the FET Flagships. The environment created by TAIPI benefited the Flagships, allowing them to concentrate on the fields where they bring the highest added value to their stakeholders while they rely on up-to-date tools, developed by TAIPI, to monitor their impacts in real time.
