The EIC Pathfinder and the FET Info Day in Brussels

Date: 

Tue, 2 Apr 2019

Address: 

Brussels

Description: 

The European Innovation Council (EIC) Pathfinder and the Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) programme are organising this Info Day to present their funding opportunitites for 2019: FET Open for Research and Innovation Actions and Innovation Launchpad Projects, and the FET Proactive topics, including EIC transition to innovation activitites. It will also offer a platform for presentations of draft ideas for proposals and networking.

As the Work Programme for these calls will not be published until later (tentatively 14/3/2019), there are no links to the calls in the Participant Portal. These links will be shown as soon as the Work Programme is published. Please stay tuned to get the details as soon as they are available.

The Information Day will cover:

  • presentation of the EIC Pathfinder FET Open and FET Proactive topics
  • information on how to prepare and submit a FET Open and FET Proactive proposal, on the evaluation process and on relevant evaluation criteria
  • opportunity for a very short presentation by potential applicants (max. 5 min, 1-3 slides) on a novel idea for a proposal with the aim of identifying potential partners.
