Join us for a member exclusive webinar on April 8th to hear an overview of horizon Europe as well as some practicalities on the application process.
What is Horizon Europe?
Horizon Europe is the world’s largest research and innovation funding program. It gives Canadians access to even more opportunities to elevate their research and innovations through global partnerships.
Funding is available to all types of organizations, including researchers, universities, small- and medium-sized enterprises, non-profit organizations, institutions and more.
With different pillars of funding for individual researchers or collaborative projects, Horizon Europe supports the world’s greatest scientific and innovative breakthroughs in research and development (R&D) and industrial competitiveness.
Pillar 2 includes six thematic clusters, each tackling specific themes to address societal issues and strengthening Europe’s industrial competitiveness.
