Programmes MSCA

The Falling Walls Lab (FWL) Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) 2025 is accepting submissions that showcase the quality, diversity and passion of the most innovative minds participating in the MSCA.

The FWL competition is an opportunity for MSCA fellows to present their projects and innovative ideas to the scientific community through 3-minute talks. During the talks, the speakers explain how their research helps to break down walls in science and society. This year’s edition will take place on 18 and 19 September 2025 in Lyngby, Denmark, as part of the MSCA conference organised with the Danish Presidency of the Council of the EU (more information on the conference).

This year, MSCA will participate in two competitions organised by the Falling Walls Foundation:

  • the Falling Walls Lab, where young up-and-coming researchers compete against each other, and
  • the Falling Walls Venture, where young start-ups that are based on a research project compete.

The selected contestants will have the opportunity to take part in a professional coaching session and travel to Denmark to attend the MSCA Presidency Conference. The best projects will also get a chance to take part in the finale 6 to 9 November 2025 in Berlin, where they will follow a prestigious networking programme. The finalists of Falling Walls Venture will further have the chance to attract new investors and funding.

The submissions deadline is 18 May 2025 at 12.00, CEST.

The full call and eligibility conditions are available in this MSCA news article. Both the submission form (EU Survey) and submission form on FWL’s website will have to be completed.
