Q&A on
the UK’s participation in Horizon Europe.
Who it’s for
Horizon Europe is open to all types of organisations across
Europe and the world. Some funding calls allow a single
organisation to apply but many require a team of partner
organisations to form a consortium. Usually, the consortium must
be made up of at least 3 organisations from different countries.
Get in touch with your UK national contact
point for advice on:
- how to form a consortium
- how to apply for Horizon Europe funding
What you can get funding for
You may be able to get Horizon Europe funding for projects which:
- involve ground breaking research or new technologies
- improve research training and development, or research
infrastructure
- create growth in sectors like advanced manufacturing,
materials, biotechnology, information and communication
technology, nanotechnology and space
- increase private investment in research
- respond to challenges like climate change, food security or
healthcare for an ageing population
Small or medium sized companies (SMEs) can also get help from a
coach or mentor, eg to improve management skills, create a
marketing strategy or raise finance.
