In the end, funding goes to research and innovation projects which create new knowledge, services, products etc. for the benefit of science, citizens and society.

Inspiration for your own research and innovation ideas, project planning and writing process, can be taken from many available resources.

European project resources

  • The Horizon results platform has a focus on the results of funded projects.
  • The Community Research and Development Information Service (CORDIS) has a projects and results database which can be browsed on all funded projects from the first framework programme until today. Furthermore it offers results packs which report on the results of projects.
  • All funded Horizon projects have websites at least for the duration of the projects, on which many information is given on the projects work packages, tasks and outcomes
  • Several Horizon Europe and programme pages on the NCP Flanders website link to programme specific project databases (related links)
