The National Contact Points are support structures established by Member States and Associated Countries (AC) and recognized by the European Commission to help participants to access the different opportunities in the Horizon Europe programme and Digital Europe programme.
NCPs provide on the ground advice to potential applicants and beneficiaries, through the project life cycle, in a manner that would be impossible for the Commission and its Agencies acting alone.
In Belgium NCPs have been established per region. NCP Flanders provides free of charge information and advice to all stakeholders located in Flanders (enterprises, institutes, non-profit-organisations, universities, university colleges,...) and to all Flemish public institutions located anywhere in Belgium. NCP Flanders is a cooperation between the Research Foundation Flanders (FWO), and Flanders Innovation & Entrepreneurship (VLAIO).
NCP Flanders can help to:
Are you a staff member of a university, university of applied science or research organisation based in Flanders?
Several Flemish institutes and organisations offer support services for European funding for research and innovation, also known as European Liaison offices. Your organisation might have such an office in place, which is your first contact point. You can consult a (non-exhaustive) list with the necessary contact information here.
Are you a Belgian stakeholder not located in Flanders?
Since in Belgium NCP services are regionalised, there are 4 other NCP organisations responsible for other stakeholder groups:

The Stargate project obtained funding under the special Green Deal call of Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic of “green ports and airports”. It received the maximum score of the evaluators and was selected out of more than 40 projects. Stargate’s purpose is to prove that sustainable aviation is possible and happening. It focuses on the further decarbonization of the aviation industry, the improvement of local environmental quality and the stimulation of the modal split. Together with a consortium of 21 European partners with a diverse and rich expertise (airports, community partners, knowledge institutions, consultants, local governments, …), Brussels Airports takes the lead as lighthouse airport to develop and implement innovative solutions. Results that prove successful can be deployed at the fellow airports (Toulouse, Budapest, Athens). Over the course of the coming five years, the consortium will exchange knowledge to investigate and realize more than 30 concrete projects.
