Key enabling technologies change the way we will live, learn, innovate, work and manufacture in the future. They offer solutions to the social challenges we face and simultaneously make a major contribution to our economy, increase competition and strengthen the labour market.
In the Knowledge and Innovation Agenda Key Enabling Technologies we provide direction for national and international collaborations, build our innovative ecosystem, strengthen networks and co-initiate new platforms. Our shared commitment makes us an important partner in public policy.
Questions about the Knowledge and Innovation Agenda Key Enabling Technologies?
Version July 2025
The Mission-Driven Top Sectors and Innovation Policy comprises 25 missions distributed across 4 societal themes. Since 2019, the top sectors have been cooperating on Knowledge and Innovation Agendas for every social theme and for key enabling technologies and social earning potential as underlying themes.
Due to globalisation, innovation processes are moving faster than ever, and responding to this requires a great deal of knowledge and capacity to act. The key enabling technologies in our Knowledge and Innovation Agenda are broadly applicable and always in development. With our current programmes, we respond to their progress.
