Agro-Food, Environment EIT

EIT Food’s proof-of-concept co-financing instrument is designed to help agrifood startups move their ideas towards market-ready solutions by reducing the financial risk of early collaboration with corporate partners. 

Eligible proposals should involve a startup and a prospective corporate client, with total project costs of less than €60,000. EIT Food states that projects need to show a clear pathway to commercial success, and activities should be directly linked to the proposed proof-of-concept or pilot. 

Applications are assessed by expert panels after each cut-off date. The two deadlines are 31 July 2026 and 30 November 2026, with the latter being the final deadline for now. For more information, please consult the website of the call.

ANERIS - Next generation tools for sensing and monitoring marine-life

Funded under Horizon Europe (HORIZON-INFRA-2022-TECH-01) and running from 2023 to 2026, the ANERIS project aims to tackle the rapid loss of ocean biodiversity. The project’s main objective is to develop, test and implement the next generation of scientific instrumentation tools and methods for sensing and monitoring marine-life. Another key concept of the project is the introduction of the concept of Operational Marine Biology (OMB) as a biodiversity information system. The project consortium consists of 25 partners from 13 countries. Read more about the project and the contribution of Flemish partner VLIZ in this testimonial.
