The Research Infrastructures work programme supports activities to consolidate, evolve, open, integrate and interconnect a world leading ecosystem of research services for researchers in Europe, encompassing both national and pan-European infrastructures. The aim is to cover the continuum of needs from the creation of fundamental knowledge to technology development and innovation, while supporting open science.
The Research Infrastructures work programme is structured around the following destinations:

The National Contact Points (NCPs) provide support, guidance, and practical information to potential applicants, helping them navigate funding opportunities and application processes.
The Programme Committee (PC) members represent their country in decision-making about the work programmes, evaluate implementation, and provide strategic input on priorities and calls.
Research Infrastructures Health Horizontal Activities
The Bridging actions call in the updated Horizon Europe work programme 2026-2027 Horizontal Activities includes three grants to identified beneficiaries, i.e. not open calls for proposals, with a total earmarked budget of 65 million euro. The explanation provided by the European Commission for the earmarked budget for three life sciences databases... read more
Research Infrastructures Enhancing EU R&I Horizon Europe
DG Research & Innovation of the European Commission developed this guidance as part of the ERA Policy Agenda 2025–2027 and its structural policy "Upscaling knowledge valorisation capacities and activities". Knowledge valorisation is distinct from dissemination — the public disclosure of results — and from impact, which descri... read more
MSCA Research Infrastructures Digital, Industry & Space Climate, Energy, Mobility
After lengthy discussions, the final work programme on the Horizontal Activities has been officially published on the website of the European Commission. First added to Horizon Europe in 2025, this broadly defined work programme supports EU policy goals through four topics: the Clean Industrial Deal, AI in Science, a nature-positive economy... read more

Funded under Horizon Europe (HORIZON-CL5-2022-D5-01-02), running from 2023 to 2026, AENEAS advanced the development of innovative electric energy storage solutions tailored for waterborne transport. The project has also created tools & platforms to support the optimal integration of new energy storage systems into vessels, assess their impact on overall system efficiency, and quantify potential reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. The project consortium, led by Flanders Make, consists of 14 partners from 8 countries. Read more about the project in this testimonial.
