From H2020 to Horizon Europe

Strategy to strengthen the ICFO Project Unit in order to optimize returns in the transition between Framework Programs (ICFORIZON).

November 14, 2019

Horizon 2020 is the biggest EU Research and Innovation programme ever with nearly €80 billion of funding available over 7 years (2014 to 2020) – in addition to the private investment that this money will attract. It promises more breakthroughs, discoveries and world-firsts by taking great ideas from the lab to the market.

The Commission’s proposal for Horizon Europe is an ambitious €100 billion research and innovation programme to succeed Horizon 2020. Horizon Europe will incorporate research and innovation missions to increase the effectiveness of funding by pursuing clearly defined targets.

In order to create a smooth transition between both framework programs, the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities has posted a call to optimize actions across European Networks and Managers from technological institutions.

ICFO has received funding from this body for the project ICFORIZON, which aims to strengthen and provide new resources and tools to ICFO’s Project Unit, to encourage their participation in European initiatives in science and technology, especially in the last biennium of implementation of H2020 and with a view to the new Program Horizon Europe framework.

This project intends to consolidate ICFO’s national leadership, improve its alignment with the areas and strategic calls for the center, as well as search to increase the role of the Spanish R+D+I system in Europe, supporting other key players at a national level as well as include newcomers to the realm of European projects.
