The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the possibility as Romania to reach the average EU in the field of innovation performance, using the method of scenario that target the horizon2020. We used the same methodology as for the Innovation Union Scoreboard 2010 and presumption that some indicators that compose the Summary Innovation Index should have a higher pace of growth for Romania in order to reduce the gap between Romania and the EU average in 2020. In order to detect factors that can stimulate or stifle convergence we discussed the strengths and weaknesses of the Romanian Innovation System and of the policies in this area in order to draw some relevant conclusions and proposals that have practical value.
