Rwy’n falch hefyd fod Senedd Ewrop wedi cytuno heddiw ar reoliadau’r gronfa ymchwil ac arloesi, Horizon 2020, sy’n werth €79 biliwn ar draws rhanbarthau’r UE. Lansiodd y Prif Weinidog a minnau’r rhaglen Horizon 2020 yng Nghymru'r wythnos ddiwethaf. Bydd cytgord rhwng y gronfa hon a’r Cronfeydd Strwythurol a ddaw i Gymru yn y dyfodol yn allweddol o ran helpu i ehangu Horizon 2020 i gyfranogwyr newydd, ac o ran gwneud y gorau o fuddsoddiadau’r UE i’n helpu i gystadlu ar lwyfan y byd.
I am also pleased that the European Parliament agreed today the regulations for the Horizon 2020 research and innovation fund, worth €79 billion across EU regions. Last week the First Minister and I launched the Horizon 2020 programme in Wales, where synergy between this fund and the future Structural Funds in Wales will be key in helping to widen participation in Horizon 2020 and in maximising the most of the EU investments to help increase our global competitiveness.
