Programmes EICUPDATE: the call deadline has been postponed to 30 September 2021 12:00 Brussels time
A call for expression of interest for European Innovation Council (EIC) Programme Managers is currently open. The European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency (EISMEA) aims to establish a reserve list of approximately 15 candidates and to recruit up to 6 candidates.
Apart from funding for research and innovation the EIC has as objective to turn technological breakthroughs out of their (portfolios of) funded projects into business opportunities. The EIC Programme Managers have an important role in guiding this process. EIC Programme Managers are experts in emerging science and technology areas.
In 2019 the first four EIC programme managers were recruited in the areas of health and biotechnology, medical technologies and medical devices, materials for energy and environmental sustainability, innovation management and energy systems and green technologies. The new programme managers are expected to have expertise in other thematic areas. Women are encouraged to apply.
All information on the call for EoI can be found in this EIC news article.
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 YoPA project, ‘a youth-centred preventive action approach towards co-created implementation of socially and physically activating environmental interventions’ obtained funding from Horizon Europe’s Health Cluster. The project addresses the multifaceted challenges of physical inactivity and health inequalities through a unique participatory approach. The project places teenagers between 12 and 18 years old in vulnerable situations at the forefront of the intervention process. The Institute of Tropical Medicine is a partner in the project and will conduct a Realist Evaluation to understand how youth co-creation contributes to improved adolescent health and well-being in four cities in Denmark, Netherlands, Nigeria and South Africa. By integrating its results and sharing its approach in an open access Toolbox, ITM aims to contribute to fostering sustainable, youth-led solutions for healthier urban environments.
