Disruption EIC Accelerator application platform - Deadline 7 June cut-off delayed until 21 June 2023

Published on | 2 years ago

Programmes EIC

The EIC Artificial Intelligence (AI) Platform for applying to the EIC Accelerator has been discontinued due to a contractual dispute, coming into effect on 2 June 2023.

This means that companies can no longer use the EIC AI Platform for EIC Accelerator applications. In the meantime, as an emergency measure, the Horizon Europe Funding and Tenders Portal is open with immediate effect for EIC Accelerator full (Step 2) applications. A new EISMEA IT Platform will be open for short (Step 1) applications as of early July.  

In order to facilitate the transition, we are putting in place the following contingency measures: 

  1. A notice on the current EIC AI Platform to inform applicants of the situation and reassure that closure of the EIC AI Platform is not due to any cyberattack or data breach, etc. 
  2. A news alert to inform that it will be possible to submit applications on the Horizon Europe Funding and Tenders Portal. The application forms will be much shorter and simpler
  3. The deadline for the 7 June 2023 cut-off for full (Step 2) proposals has been delayed until 21 June 2023 at 17.00 CET to accommodate the change for applicants. 
  4. FAQ for applicants at the different stages (preparing short (Step 1), submitted short (Step 1), preparing full (Step 2) applications, submitted full (Step 2) applications) to inform applicants of what they should do. 

The FAQ list on the EIC website has been updated according this information.

UNCHAIN - Revolutionising urban logistics & space management

The UNCHAIN project, ‘urban logistics and planning: anticipating urban freight generation and demand including digitalisation of urban freight’ obtained funding from the Horizon Europe’s Mobility Cluster. The project focuses on breaking down data silos and promoting public-private data exchange across a unified European mobility data space, enabling more informed decisions and greater efficiency. The City of Mechelen is a partner in the project and takes on the role of ‘follower city’: it will work alongside the primary demonstration sites (in Madrid, Berlin and Florence) to maximize the geographical coverage and replicability of solutions across Europe. Mechelen aims to test 2 concrete solutions in the UNCHAIN project, with the aim to help addressing its current and future challenges in urban freight distribution.
