In 2009, the European Union (EU) identified Key Enabling Technologies (KETs) for their potential impact in strengthening Europe's industrial and innovation capacity. The document is the Final Report of the High Level Group (HLG).
Key Enabling Technologies (KETs) are attracting strong interest at both Member State and European Union level, as they are seen as the route to new products, processes and services capable of generating economic growth and employment, and contributing to strengthening and / or rejuvenating existing European sectors. KETs will enable sustainable, smart and inclusive growth in Europe. In addition, KETs' follow-through applications will create the substantial jobs, growth and wealth required in our future European economies to remain competitive at global level.
