We hope this message finds you well and that you are staying safe during these challenging times.
As ever, Horizon Europe is evolving, and the Evolution team is here to keep you in the loop about changes in the world’s largest research collaboration program.
EIC Deadline Extension
Due to recent Hamas terrorist attacks, the European Commission has extended application submission dates to give all potential applicants more time to prepare following these unforeseen disruptions.
The new application deadline for the EIC Accelerator is now set for 8 November 2023 at 17:00.
For all the nitty-gritty details and guidance on the application process, contact your project manager, head over to the official EIC website or reach out to your National Contact Point.
UK’s Returns to Horizon Europe
If you’re based in the UK and wondering about your participation in Horizon Europe, we have fantastic news! The UK has secured association status, which means you’re still in the game. This status allows UK researchers, institutions, and businesses to access funds and actively collaborate on research and innovation projects within the Horizon Europe framework.
All calls in Work Programme 2024 will be covered with certainty with the UK participating as a fully associated member for the remaining life of the program to 2027.
For the full scoop and specifics on the UK’s association status, visit the official Horizon Europe website or check out the UK government’s guidance.
