EIT RawMaterials (European Institute for Innovation and Technology) has published KAVA Call 14 – Upscaling for projects in the raw and advanced materials sector. The call supports innovation projects with validated technologies above TRL 5 that need further testing, demonstration or scaling towards market entry at TRL 8. Funding ranges from €500,000 to more than €2.5 million per project, with a project duration of up to 2.5 years.

The call is designed for consortia working on innovative technologies, materials or products in mining, materials and recycling. The call targets projects that are beyond lab scale and need further proof of concept, testing, demonstration or scale-up before they are ready for the market. 

Applicants must form a consortium with at least two partners from different Horizon Europe-eligible countries and cover at least two parts of the knowledge triangle: education, research, and industry or business. At least one partner must already be a Core or Associate Partner of EIT RawMaterials, while non-member organisations would need to commit to membership if selected. The lead project participant must be a KIC Partner by the start of the project.

Interested applicants can review the call conditions and consortium requirements through the EIT RawMaterials website and check whether they meet the membership and co-funding conditions before preparing a proposal. The next two deadlines are 24 June 2026 and 16 October 2026.

This hub contributes to the creation of the European common cultural heritage data space, which provides support to the digital transformation of Europe’s cultural sector and fosters the creation and reuse of content in cultural and creative sectors. The Flemish company CrossLang is one of the 12 partners in the project and brings in its year-long expertise in the development of multilingual technology to the transcription and translation of scanned printed and handwritten documents.
