Abstract: The talk introduces the audience to the
European Union (EU) research policies, focusing in the
area of Research Infrastructures. It outlines the historic
evolution of the constituency of electronic
Infrastructures (eInfrastructures) as these become
mature. In this process, the progressively increasing
role of industry is analysed. The main eInfrastructures
topics in the 7th EU Framework Programme (FP7)
Connectivity, Grids, Supercomputers and Scientific
Repositories are outlined, and the participation of
industry in upcoming FP7 calls is encouraged.
