ESKTN supports series of Horizon 2020 webinars

Horizon 2020 is the new European research funding programme, that takes over from FP7.

According to the European Commission website it is the biggest EU Research and Innovation programme ever, with nearly €80 billion of funding available over the seven years between 2014 and 2020.

Horizon 2020 has coupled research and innovation together, hoping to ensure Europe “produces world-class science, removes barriers to innovation and makes it easier for the public and private sectors to work together” – no small task.

Help is on hand however if you would like information on eligibility and how to apply for Horizon 2020 funding. The Environmental Systainability KTN (ESKTN) is supporting a series of Horizon 2020 webinars with BETA Technology, the National Contact Point for EU funding.
