The webinar will be a chance to network and find potential consortium partners for the Horizon Europe Cluster 2 (Culture, Creativity and Inclusive Society) Destination 1 (Innovative research on democracy and governance) and Destination 3 (Innovative research on social and economic transformations) call topics listed below.

Destination 1: Innovative research on democracy and governance (9 topics)

Destination 3: Innovative research on social and economic transformations (10 topics)

Please note: This event is not an information dissemination event, but will focus on pitching of project ideas and brokering partnerships for European Research and Innovation collaborations and networking. It’s ideal for those who have identified specific call topics or at least areas of interest, and are ready to take the next steps, discussing concrete project ideas with potential partners and going forward to a proposal submission. If you still need support with understanding Cluster 2, its Work Programme and scope of call topics, we would like to refer you in the first instance to the recording from our Horizon Europe Cluster 2 Event which took place in June 2021. All other Cluster event recordings and slides can also be found via the same link. The NCP Team and Innovate UK KTN are available to answer your questions and arrange a call separately.

Who can attend?

The event is suitable for anyone with an interest in collaborating in European Research and Innovation projects and who is looking to submit a proposal idea or join a consortium for one of the forthcoming 2022 Horizon Europe Call Topics in Cluster 2 listed above. Delegates from all European Member States, Associated States and third Countries are welcome and encouraged to attend the event.

Why should I attend?

This Horizon Europe Cluster 2 event will help you find partners to form international collaborations and strategic partnerships. The key focus of the event will be to provide hands-on advice to give you the final boost and get you ready for submission into the forthcoming 2022 Horizon Europe calls. There will be the opportunity to present a pitch about your project idea or your capability offering, and you’ll be able to talk to pitch presenters and other delegates in small groups and / or in 1-1 meetings. The UK National Contacts Point Team and Innovate UK KTN’s European Programmes Team will also be available for 1-1 meetings to answer any specific or more confidential questions. Make the most of the pitching and 1-1 meeting opportunities and indicate on your registration form whether you wanted to take advantage of these.

Disclaimer

In the case that we exceed capacity for these events, we will prioritise registrants that are working on or planning to work on a Horizon Europe proposal submission, and we reserve the right to limit the numbers of registrants coming from the same organisation.
