Horizon Europe
To facilitate your participation in Horizon Europe, we have prepared a guide to over 700 Pillar II topics (clusters and missions), extracted from the European Commission’s Work Programme drafts.
We guide companies through the implementation of an adequate innovation strategy, which allows them to tackle any transformation challenge in a coordinated and effective way, from an integrated perspective.
To maximise the success and impact of a project, we manage the communication and dissemination activities, but we also define a social innovation strategy and tools to measure its impact.
Europe offers many opportunities to support and foster Research, Development and Innovation actions. Competition is very high and being well positioned among all actors active in each sector requires a well thought-out plan of action and an active way of promoting visibility in Brussels.
