The European Commission has just informed the delegations of the Program Committee on Cluster 1, Health about the planned call topics in the work program for 2023-2024. The new calls are expected to be published in December 2022. The first submission deadlines are already planned for April 2023. Compared to the previous calls, there will be some changes in 2023 – 2024. In order to inform you very up-to-date, BIO.NRW offers this funding event (in German).

In the context of this event, the (potential) call contents for Cluster 6, Bioeconomy and Environment, will be in focus in addition to the topic of health.

In addition, we will provide an insight into the support measures of the European Innovation Council (EIC) for all those interested in founding a company, as well as for start-ups and SMEs. The EIC unites many measures for innovation support, for which the applicants can choose the topics themselves for the most part. The four important instruments EIC Pathfinder, EIC Transitions, EIC Accelerator as well as the EIC Awards offer a lot of room for interdisciplinary ideas.
