Description: 

The European Innovation Council (EIC) Pathfinder and the Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) programme are organising this Info Day to present their funding opportunitites for 2019: FET Open for Research and Innovation Actions and Innovation Launchpad Projects, and the FET Proactive topics, including EIC transition to innovation activitites. It will also offer a platform for presentations of draft ideas for proposals and networking.

The link to the reference document containing these funding opportunitites is here (sections FET-Open and FET-Proactive)

This event will be videostreamed and recorded.

The Information Day will cover:

  • presentation of the EIC Pathfinder FET Open and FET Proactive topics
  • information on how to prepare and submit a FET Open and FET Proactive proposal, on the evaluation process and on relevant evaluation criteria
  • opportunity for a very short presentation by potential applicants (max. 5 min, 1-3 slides) on a novel idea for a proposal with the aim of identifying potential partners.
