The survey is fully anonymous and is open until 9 October 2026. It is organised into three sections: NCP Flanders assistance, info sessions, and NCP Flanders website & LinkedIn. If you are not familiar with one of these sections, the survey will automatically guide you to the next section. The NCP Flanders team would greatly appreciate it if you could take a few minutes to fill in the survey and provide your opinion via this link.

As of the 2028 ERC calls, under the EU’s future Research and Innovation framework programme (2028-2034), a new thematic evaluation panel on Fundamentals of AI in the domain Physical Sciences and Engineering (PE12) will be established. The new panel will cover fundamental and basic research aimed at advancing the foundations, methods, and theories of artificial intelligence - rather than applications of AI in specific domains, which can be submitted to other panels. The new PE12 scope will include machine learning, reasoning, intelligent and autonomous systems, computer vision, natural language processing, generative and multimodal AI, and its mathematical and statistical foundations. The establishment of the new panel will bring the total to 29 evaluation panels (9 panels in Life Sciences; 8 in Social Sciences and Humanities and 12 in PE). More information on this news is available here and on the panels here.
The NCP_WIDERA.NET factsheet ‘Key Facts on Knowledge Valorisation (KV) in the European Research Area (ERA)’ presents key information on KV and highlights its relevance within the ERA and Horizon Europe (HE), with a special focus on the HE programme component “Reforming and Enhancing the European R&I System” (in short: the “ERA part”) of the WIDERA work programme. For more information about the ERA part, visit the dedicated Research Executive Agency page and NCP Flanders page. The European Commission defines knowledge valorisation as follows: “KV is the process of creating social and economic value from knowledge – transforming research results, data, and know-how into sustainable products, services, solutions, and knowledge-based policies that benefit society. It serves as a bridge linking academia, industry, policymakers, and citizens”. The topics covered in the factsheet are: KV in the ERA Part of the WIDERA Programme ERA KV: Key Milestones HE: KV Funding Actions EU Tools and Resources for KV Activities and Key Studies for KV Information and Advice NCP Flanders offers info sheets on the following topics Knowledge Valorisation & Results Boosters in the HORIZON Europe context and the Horizon Results Platform.

This six-part podcast series features conversations with current and past MSCA fellows. Together, they explore the work, motivations, and shared experiences that define the MSCA community. The first episode is about the power of connectivity in research and the second about mentorship. The podcast series is available here.
The CL3 NCP Network, Seren6, invites Horizon Europe CL3 participants to share input on how the uptake of research and innovation results in civil security can be improved. This survey seeks experiences, successful approaches, barriers and support needs related to the exploitation and uptake of Horizon Europe Cluster 3 results. The given feedback will shape future guides on best practices and recommendations. Completion is expected to take 5 to 10 minutes. Participation is anonymous. More information is available on the survey page.
