EC Horizon Europe
European sources of research funding

The UK will associate to Horizon Europe on equivalent terms as organisations in EU countries. This means that UK organisations can lead and be partners on collaborative projects and UK experts can take part in evaluations. The vast majority of UK applicants would have a very similar user experience as to when the UK were a Member State in Horizon 2020.
Horizon Europe is managed under three pillars, Excellent Science, Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness, and Innovative Europe. The programme will not formally begin until the EU has finalised its Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) for 2021-27 (mid to late spring 2021). For further information please visit resources for staff and students (internal staff and students only).
Horizon Europe and Horizon 2020 calls and supporting information and application guidance are available through the EC Participant Portal. This is the online application service and usefully brings together calls, documentation and the application process. It also allows you to search for potential partners.
Access to the Participant Portal requires prior registration via ECAS - the European Commission Authentication Service.
