Programmes EIC MissionsEurope is experiencing rapid warming leading to significant climate risks, including heat-related health issues, crop stress from drought, water scarcity, and flooding. To address these challenges, the European Commission's EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change is seeking innovative solutions. That is why they have joined forces with the EIC accelerator team to publish a challenge that is looking for start-ups and scale-ups who can provide solutions to tackle these climate risks.
This Challenge competition focuses more in particular on deep tech solutions including nature-based solutions (NbS) and engineering approaches reinforced by AI and other Key Enabling Technologies (KET).
You can find more information about the call and the application procedure on this website. Please note there is an info day on friday morning 14 November about all the EIC accelerator challenges. You can watch in online via this webpage.

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.
