There exist several tools and organisations that can help you to find the right partners for your Horizon Europe or Digital Europe project.

NCP Flanders Partner Search Service & Your NCP

NCP Flanders provides an overview of partner search requests received from stakeholders abroad. You can access this service here. The partner searches listed on this page have not been widely published and should not be further spread. These partner search requests are published as received, NCP Flanders does not vouch for the quality of these requests.

NCP Flanders has for each domain in Horizon Europe and for Digital Europe a dedicated advisor that is familiar with the ecosystem. If you are a stakeholder based in Flanders and would like to launch a partner search request please contact the NCP advisor responsible for your domain.

Funding & Tenders Portal

Also the Funding and Tenders portal has a partner search section. This is rather closely connected to the different call topics, and the list is often more crowded with consultants than opportunity seekers. But you surely can find some potential cooperation gems...

You can as well launch a search through the results platform of the F&T portal. It is not clear at the moment how connected both services are, so it's not a bad idea to check both!

Country eligibility check

Before entering a consortium for a Horizon Europe project, use the NCP Flanders country eligibility tool to check that all partners are eligible to participate and/or receive funding, especially when collaborating with partners from non-EU countries.

 

Testimonial

PBNv2 - a MSCA ITN in the field of automotive R&D

The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Action (MSCA) European Innovative Training Network “PBNv2 - Next generation Pass-By Noise approaches for new powertrain vehicles” started in May 2017. Their research has the shared objective of investigating the possibilities to decrease pass-by noise of vehicles.

The project is a collaboration between 17 research institutions and companies in the European automotive R&D and provides a learning environment for 14 PhD fellows. The Belgian partner is the Noise and Vibration Research Group of KU Leuven, and this project is one of the many Horizon 2020 MSCA Innovative Training Networks that the KU Leuven research group participates in.
