ProgrammesA training proposal writing on the ERC Advanced Grant call for proposals is organised by NCP Flanders. The training is organised to support potential researchers and host institutions in the preparation of their ERC Advanced Grant application at a host institution located in Flanders. Researchers who are planning to submit an ERC Advanced Grant proposal for the 2025 call or in the next round(s) are encouraged to attend this training.
The ERC Advanced Grant Call 2025 tentative opening date is 22 May 2025 with a tentative deadline on 28 August 2025. The 2025 ERC Advanced Grant call will be made available on the European Commission Funding and Tender Portal.
The call will be open to established research leaders of any nationality and from any field of research (bottom-up approach), with a recognized track-record of research achievements. There is no minimum or maximum age limit. The amount of the grant is up to € 2.5 million for 5 years (or up to €3.5 million in specific cases).
This is a call using lump-sum contribution. Last year’s call was a pilot on the use of lump sum contribution and thus the following related resources could be useful: Q&A on lump sums and webinar on lump sums.
It is advised to potential applicants to also attend the Belgian webinar on the ERC Advanced Grant 2025 call modalities which will take place on 4 April 2025.
Participation to this training is free of charge. Registration via this registration form is required.

Only for stakeholders located in Flanders
The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
