5 Intra-regional investment plan Business Model of the Pilot Network This pilot network is designed to be a generator of new industrial plants for European circular economy solutions. Pilot Network Revenues: The User will pay a daily fee for each access. The User will share with the pilot network a portion of the revenues obtained by selling the product/service demonstrated by the business case developed by the platform (IPR exploitation). The core partners of the pilot (companies, universities and RTOs) will pay a yearly fee to be part of the pilot network and to access the generated knowledge and best practices. Pilot Network Costs: Each demonstration project will have a specific duration and will requires a group of full-time dedicated persons (hired and paid by the pilot network). Maintenance and upgrade costs of the pilot network facilities will be covered yearly by the pilot. A cost of customization of the platform for each new project will be incurred (paid by the pilot).

Considering a successful industrial replication rate of the developed solutions of 25%, about 35 new industrial installations will be originated by the pilot network in these 5 years. The cumulative revenue for the involved companies of about 215 million Euros. The 35 new installations will mobilize private resources for 535 million Euros. Leverage factor for the public investment of about 19 in five years from the pilot network installation.

SCREEN Synergic Circular Economy Across European Regions SCREEN H2020 aims at the definition of a replicable and scalable approach, to support European Regions in the transition to new Circular Economy crossregional value-chains. This will be done through the identification and implementation of operative synergies between R&I investments of H2020 program and EU structural funds. The methodology developed within the project will be replicable in all the European Union, thus creating an interregional framework for financing Circular Economy value chains.
