Funding for Maritime Innovation – Horizon Europe

The UK is able to take part in the Horizon Europe program. Association will give UK organisations access to the €95.5Bn research and innovation programme on equivalent terms as those from Member States. A recently published Q&A from the European Commission states “UK entities including universities, research centres, scientists, innovative businesses, industry, etc. will have full rights to participate in the first calls for proposals of Horizon Europe as soon as they are published”.

Although not yet formally published, the list below shows the titles and budgets of the expected calls for proposals for the Maritime sector for 2021.
