Horizon Europe offers novel or adapted funding instruments to support the translation of research results into new products or services. This event will put these schemes (ERC Proof of Concept, EIC Pathfinder and Transition Instrument) into the spotlight and discuss insights by applicants, implementing agencies and evaluators.
Speakers from the Executive Agencies (ERCEA and EISMEA) will provide a general overview on these programmes. The core of the event will be a discussion with EIC Transition and Pathfinder beneficiaries, sharing also insights from the evaluator's perspective.
