The Annual I3 Instrument Forum 2026 will bring together the I3 community to showcase project results, strengthen interregional value chains and discuss the future of the Instrument within Cohesion Policy.
The Forum will focus on how interregional collaboration contributes to the development of European value chains, the scaling-up of innovation and the strengthening of regional innovation ecosystems. Participants will have the opportunity to discover concrete examples and project results supported under the I3 Instrument, exchange experiences with peers and engage in discussions on the future of interregional innovation investment in Europe.
The programme will feature representatives from European institutions, regional authorities, innovation agencies, clusters, SMEs, research organisations and I3 Instrument project consortia.
To ensure a balanced representation across regions and stakeholder groups, registrations will be reviewed individually by the organisers.
We offer news and event updates, covering all domains and topics of Horizon Europe, Digital Europe & EDF (and occasionally, for ongoing projects, Horizon 2020).

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.
