European Innovation Council (EIC) launched the instrument EIC Accelerator which aims to support startups and SMEs which have the potential to create new markets or disrupt existing markets.
This will be done through providing grants of up to 2.5 million€, supplemented with capital investments between 0.5 million€ and 15 million€. Details can be found in the EIC Workprogramme 2021. The content and procedures of the proposals in Horizon Europe are clearly different than the previous ones in Horizon 2020.
The basic principles of the EIC Accelerator and the novelties will be explained by Rebeca De Sancho Mayoral (EIC Fund/R&I Investments/InvestEU Adviser of EISMEA (European Innovation Council and Small & Medium-sized Enterprises Executive Agency) and the NCP EIC accelerator of NCP Flanders, Magali Parent.

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.
