ProgrammesUPDATE: 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 RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’. RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
