Horizon Europe
A 7-year European Union scientific research initiative running from 2021 to 2027.
The 2026 Horizon Europe Work Programme Calls Are Now Open
The 2026 Horizon Europe work programme calls are now open, offering significant funding opportunities for cross-border collaboration between Northern Ireland and Ireland. Consortia can apply for funding to support research and innovation projects.
Who is it for?
Horizon Europe is designed to support a wide range of stakeholders involved in scientific research and technological innovation. It has a particular focus on small businesses. Parts of the budget have 70% allocated for SMEs. Successful, innovative SMEs play a critical role in developing a more competitive economy with higher employment, which is why the UK and the European Union have taken this ‘bottom up’ or business led approach.
