2023 is off to a quick start after the EU Commission adopted Horizon Europe work programmes for 2023-24, with around €13.5 billion to support researchers and innovators in Europe. Over €1.5bn of funding is dedicated to the health research funding (€1bn for 2023 and €500m for
2024).
More than €600 million will be invested in the five EU Missions in 2023 with a budget of €110m dedicated to the Cancer Mission. Further opportunities will also arise in Innovative Health Initiative (IHI) and the European Innovation Program (EIC) program open calls and dedicated health challenges.
Further information on the call topics and opportunities are highlighted below. Please take note of the upcoming public information days and brokerage events
which will take place this month for the health program and the Cancer Mission. These events will provide you with an opportunity to learn more about the upcoming calls, topics and project expectations. Participants will have an opportunity to ask EU Commission representatives questions directly via slido. If you require any further help and guidance after the information days, please let me know.
All the best for 2023,
Martha
