Horizon Europe in a nutshell
Horizon Europe (2021-2027) is the 9th European Union Framework Programme for Research and Innovation. With 95.5 billion euros in funding, it is the biggest and most ambitious programme of its kind ever. Its goal is to keep the EU at the forefront of global research and innovation.
There are various platforms and pillars that make up the structure of Horizon Europe. To simplify, BFH researchers and small businesses will likely be interested in the programmes in pillar II – Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness, which covers:
-
Cluster 1 – Health
- Cluster 2 – Culture, Creativity, and Inclusive Society
- Cluster 3 – Civil Security for Society
- Cluster 4 – Digital, Industry, and Space
- Cluster 5 – Climate, Energy, and Mobility
- Cluster 6 – Food, Bioeconomy, Natural resources, Agriculture, and Environment
- Innovate Europe – For companies
