Published on | 8 months ago

EIC

A technical error has affected the EIC Pathfinder Open 2026 call, published on 5 February 2026. Updates are underway to correct the configuration, particularly the Model Grant Agreement type.

The EIC Pathfinder Open 2026 call was published with incorrect settings on 05/02/2026, specifically requiring an update to the HORIZON Lump Sum Grant model.

A technical update is being carried out and it is excepted that the portal will have correct information shortly. This correction will not change the call's scope, objectives, eligibility conditions, or evaluation criteria.

However, applicants who have begun their proposals will need to restart the submission process to meet the updated call conditions. Notifications will be sent to affected applicants once the portal is corrected. Further details will be provided on the official website as they become available.

Applicants should monitor the official portal for updates and prepare to restart their submissions once notified!

Luciad - Geospatial software for mission-critical operations

Founded in 1999, Luciad serves clients in Europe, Asia and the Americas. Though it recently was acquired by Hexagon Geospatial, they kept an agile SME mindset. Thousands of end users work directly with Luciad’s geospatial applications, and major systems integrators (think Airbus Defense and Space, Lufthansa Systems, NATO, Thales…) incorporate its software in their own products.

NCP Flanders went to Leuven to interview Frederic Houbie, the Research Projects Manager at Luciad, about how he sees Horizon 2020. Luciad is a partner in the MARISA project, which is a collaborative RIA project submitted to an ICT call topic.
