Get ready for the next deadline for submission of Research and Innovation Actions (RIA) proposals under the European Innovation Council Pilot instrument for Future and Emerging Technologies (FET-Open).
As part of the first phase of the European Innovation Council (EIC) Pilot programme (2018-2020), the FET-OPEN funding instrument supports early stage collaborative science and technology research, aimed at the development of radically new technologies of the future. The funded multi-beneficiary projects involve a wide range of actors, mostly from universities and research organisations, but also SMEs and industry partners, with a common goal of exploration of new technological possibilities, inspired by cutting-edge science, unconventional interdisciplinary collaborations or new research and innovation practices.
The next cut-off date for the submission of proposals under the Future and Emerging Technologies Open (FET-Open) scheme for Research and Innovation Actions (RIA) is 24/1/2019 at 17:00 CET.
For the period 2018-2020, the total budget for the FET-Open RIA instrument is 705 M€.
