The FTP Research and Innovation Portal http://www.forestplatform.org is an advanced and comprehensive Internet database of EU-funded projects involving the forest-based sector. The database currently contains more than 180 projects that have been funded by the European Commission in the years 2007-2013 under the 7th Framework Programme (FP7), with a total EU-contribution of over 500 million Euros.

The FTP Research and Innovation Portal can also be used to let stakeholders propose new innovative ideas and priorities to be discussed in the FTP family. To that end, a new functionality has been recently added to the Portal whereby stakeholders can introduce their most relevant selected topics of interest as well as the Strategic Research & Innovation Areas to which they relate. They can also rank and comment on the new topic ideas submitted.
