About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)

Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €4.6M toward a total project budget of €9.2M — a funding rate of 50%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 5 years from 2021-11-01 to 2026-10-31.
