Between cycles

Funds research consortia developing biotechnology-based interventions, biomarkers or non-animal test methods that target the root causes of age-related disease.

Between cycles

Invests in European deep-tech scale-up ventures with momentum needing capital for commercial expansion.

Between cycles

Invests in scale-up ventures in digital, clean technology, and biotechnology through equity to accelerate commercialization pathways.

Between cycles

Funds a pilot lab where AI and automation run safer, faster and more reproducible food-science experiments.

Between cycles

Funds two €1.5–2.5M actions that give European startups and SMEs simpler access to advanced research and technology infrastructure.

Between cycles

Funds innovative SME-led international R&D consortia through the Eurostars Call 12 grant process.

Between cycles

Funds a research consortium that studies why immune-mediated diseases behave differently when they first strike older adults and hunts for biomarkers to predict them.

Between cycles

Funds advanced innovation projects advancing robotics and physical AI deep-tech initiatives toward scalable outcomes.

Between cycles

Runs students and early career scholars with mentoring support for CRF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in biotechnology, medical technology, and synthetic biology.

Between cycles

Between cycles

Supports EIC beneficiaries' participation in major trade fairs across the EU, MENA and the US.

Between cycles

Funds early-stage deep tech startups developing solutions at TRL 4-5 in collaboration with industry partners through a 4-month co-creation programme.

Between cycles

Funds a €15M project that turns microbiome signals into a test for spotting cancer risk years ahead of any symptoms.

Between cycles

Funds a €5M programme that pairs EU and Associated Country research institutions with Ukrainian cancer centres for joint training and staff exchanges.

Between cycles

Funds up to four €8-9M grants for teams building AI-driven digital models of a patient's cancer to predict how it develops and guide personalised treatment.

Between cycles

Funds three pragmatic clinical trials, €7-8M each, testing existing cancer immunotherapies in real-world care for patients whose disease resists treatment.

Between cycles

Funds two €7M projects that map how antimicrobial resistance develops in soil and turn it into guidance for policymakers and land managers.

Closed

Pays up to 25 small consortia EUR 200,000 each to test the commercial exploitation potential of results that already came out of earlier Horizon Europe or Horizon 2020 Cluster 4 projects.

Closed

Funds clinical trials of prophylactic vaccines against neglected tropical diseases such as schistosomiasis, leishmaniasis and leprosy in sub-Saharan Africa.

Closed

Pays deep-tech start-ups, SMEs and research organisations a €300,000 lump sum in Stage 1, then up to €2.5 million in Stage 2, to push high-risk breakthrough innovations that lack commercial uptake toward real-world, demand-tested deployment.

Closed

Funds early clinical trials of therapies built from the molecules cells secrete rather than the cells themselves, aiming for an off-the-shelf alternative to cell therapy.

Closed

Funds research into biomanufactured alternatives to imported natural rubber and fossil-based synthetic rubber for automotive, healthcare and industrial uses.

Closed

Funds research into bio-based, biodegradable delivery coatings for fertilisers that replace today's microplastic-shedding polymer coatings.
