Such events will allow researchers to network with EU consortia, to build-up partnerships for subsequent joint research activities and to make their institutions and/or their research networks better known.
The thematic priorities of the Call are the following four topics:
- Sustainable agriculture’,
- Resource efficiency in relation to water / water management’ and
- Applied chemistry & smart materials’.
- Social sciences and humanities
Maximum funding per grant is 1000 EUR.
Deadline for submission: 30th June 2017

The Black Sea Horizon project has developed a grant scheme to financially support the participation of local researchers from Black Sea countries in large-scale brokerage events and other similar activities in EU Member States or Associated Countries, which are related to Horizon 2020. Such events provide an excellent arena for researchers to liaise and develop synergies, therefore the participation of researchers from the targeted countries will increase their opportunities to get involved and be taken onboard in consortia set up in EU MS/AC countries. It will also allow the researchers to make their institutions and/or their research networks better known to the scientific community.
The thematic priorities of the call are the three topics identified as a result of the previous task T3.1, namely ‘Sustainable agriculture’, ‘Resource efficiency in relation to water / water management‘ , ‘Applied chemistry & smart materials‘ and “Social sciences and humanities”. The proposed list of events will be: Networking events, Brokerage events organised by the European Commission, large international events organised by other European networks (e.g Enterprise Europe Network). Partners based in BS region are also free to identify events of high importance which will be also considered eligible – especially preparatory meetings targeting at writing joint proposals for H2020 calls.
