This paper provides an overview of the UK’s long-term Horizon Europe alternative which is currently being developed. This builds on UK strengths by investing in talent, research, innovation, R&D infrastructure and international collaboration.

It covers details of the transitional measures proposed to provide stability and continuity of funding for UK researchers and businesses, including:

• the Horizon Europe Guarantee
• funding for successful, in-flight applications
• uplifts to existing talent programmes
• uplifts to innovation support
• funding for research institutions most affected by the loss of Horizon Europe’s talent funding
• continued third country participation in Horizon Europe

An overview of the long-term vision for UK alternatives for the Copernicus and Euratom programmes is also included.
