New on the NCP Flanders website: Call Topic Heatmap

Keeping track of the exact timelines of multiple Horizon Europe and/or Digital Europe calls can be challenging, especially for organisations active in several domains at once. To help you plan ahead, NCP Flanders has developed a new downloadable Call Topic Heatmap.This new Excel-based tool provides a visual overview of when call topics are open across the different subdomains of Horizon Europe and in Digital Europe, helping organisations identify and anticipate peak periods.Each row in the heatmap represents a specific programme or subdomain, while the timeline is organised by week. As new calls open, the number of available topics increases and the colour intensity changes accordingly. The darker the colour, the higher the number of open topics at that moment in time.You can download the call topic heatmap here on the Call Topic Overview Page, available under Tools.
