They convened on Tuesday for an informal summit in Warsaw to discuss key priorities in these fields.
The gathering marked a significant step toward ensuring stable and predictable funding for European science post-2027.
The ministers emphasized that the EU Framework Programme in this area requires an independent structure and a budget that reflects the scale of today’s challenges.
“Without a strong framework program, it will be difficult to enhance Europe's competitiveness, build technological independence, or support security,” Poland’s Science Minister Marcin Kulasek said at a news conference following the meeting.
“Science and innovation have guided us through many crises, and I am confident they will continue to do so in the future,” he added.
