Innovative Europe: Funding opportunities

This event provides the opportunity to learn about the Horizon Europe framework programme's call for proposals; specifically, those in pillar III- Innovative Europe from the European Innovation Council (EIC), whose main goal is to support ground-breaking innovations with market creation potential. 

Participation will include experts in the European Innovation Council programmes, who will go into detail about the most relevant aspects of the programme. A session on gender and ethical questions for European projects will be offered and, lastly, attendants will learn first-hand about the successful projects that have received European funding. There will be a chance to speak with researchers about their experience, and learn some tips for preparing proposals.

Give value to your research and come and enjoy an innovative and revolutionary morning and breakfast!
