Horizon Europe Funding calls for Pillar II (collaborative/ consortium projects) 2026 Info events
Research and project services offers a series of info events on the upcoming 2026 spring calls of Horizon Europe's Pillar II. Pillar II funds top-down Research and Innovation activities of large consortia. Pillar II consists of six thematic clusters. We organise five info sessions for each cluster separately. The sessions will be recorded and added to our Teams workspace for Horizon Europe Consortium projects: General | Horizon Europe Consortium project (Pillar II) support | Microsoft Teamshttps://teams.microsoft.com/l/team/19%3AJj7FmV9Iu9QWh4O1Vurc1-MBP4i9DrnpWfw_vWkVN-k1%40thread.tacv2/conversations?groupId=11ded95b-f7b2-4558-83e8-66dd342f4e45&tenantId=9f9ce49a-5101-4aa3-8c75-0d5935ad6525
