Principal Investigators with a main European Research Council grant that is ongoing or ended after 1 January 2023 are eligible to participate in an ERC 2024 Proof of Concept Grant. The ERC Proof of Concept Grants aim at facilitating exploration of the commercial and social innovation potential of ERC funded research and are therefore available only to PIs whose proposals draw substantially on their ERC funded research. For the 2024 Proof of Concept call (1st cut-off deadline 14 March 2024) in total 100 ERC Proof of Concept Grants were awarded, of which five to researchers based at a Flemish host institution. The ERCEA news article contains all funded projects including the 2000th awarded ERC Proof of Concept grant to the project DeepSpacePULSE (ICE-CSIC news article).
