The NCP Flanders Horizon Europe introduction page and Digital Europe introduction page provide a first overview of the respective programmes.
The Online manual provides all practical details on the submission process of proposals on the Funding and Tender portal, how to apply for funding, what will happen after the call deadline and offers guidance for the post-grant signature/project management phase.
The application to a Horizon Europe or Digital Europe call implies four major steps.
The Funding and Tender portal hosts call topics of all EU funding programmes. By choosing Digital Europe you will be directed to all calls within this specific programme. By choosing Horizon Europe you will be directed to all calls within this specific programme.
The majority of the call topics demand a consortium with a minimum number of consortium members from a minimum number of different European member states or Associated countries. The exact number of required consortium partners depends on the specific call topic. There are several ways to find partners to build your consortium or to present yourself to other organisations that you are interested in participating to this project as a partner.
Find out more about finding the right partners on our dedicated Partner search page.
Each user of the Funding and Tender portal has to have an EU Login account to log in on the Portal.
If you want to participate in a project proposal, your organisation needs to be registered and have a 9-digit Participant Identification Code (PIC). The 2-steps verification process for securing your registration in the Funding and Tender portal, installed in 2020, is explained by the Commission through webinars and tutorials.
NCP Flanders can give you support during your application process and provides basic information and tips and tricks to support you with preparing your proposal.
The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
