ProgrammesDG Research & Innovation of the European Commission developed this guidance as part of the ERA Policy Agenda 2025–2027 and its structural policy "Upscaling knowledge valorisation capacities and activities".
Knowledge valorisation is distinct from dissemination — the public disclosure of results — and from impact, which describes the change that research produces in the world.
Valorisation is the deliberate activity that connects the two: transforming data, know-how, and research outputs into products, services, solutions, and knowledge-based policies that generate social and economic value.
Multidisciplinary research including Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) offers valuable solutions for addressing Europe's societal challenges. By integrating knowledge across disciplines and sectors, it can provide new policy perspectives, human-centred innovations, and business ideas. However, its potential is not always translated into broader societal, economic, and political value, and uptake needs to be accelerated.
The guidance is designed to help R&I projects create greater value from multidisciplinary results, including those involving Social Sciences and Humanities. It is based on a comprehensive analysis of existing best practices and offers 10 practical pathways – from research to human-centred technology, participatory innovation, entrepreneurship, organisational change, evidence-informed policy and more.
We offer news and event updates, covering all domains and topics of Horizon Europe, Digital Europe & EDF (and occasionally, for ongoing projects, Horizon 2020).

Flanders Make coordinates Horizon Europe Cluster 4 project PROSPECTS 5.0 which analyses how Industry 5.0 principles are being adopted across 14 real‑world industrial use cases in multiple sectors and countries. The consortium partners, among which also KU Leuven, UGent and Flemish SME OCTAVE, translate the gained insights into practical guidance and policy-relevant outputs.
