I would like to thank everyone who joined the Horizon Europe event today.
It was great to see how the audience has grown compared with previous years, with attendance reaching full capacity in the room. It was also encouraging to see colleagues engaging with one another and taking the opportunity to connect in person.
You can access the presentation on the RIS SharePoint site here: Horizon Europe 2026 BU
If you experience any difficulties accessing the materials, please let me know and I will be happy to send them to you directly.
With the 2026 spring calls now closed, we are turning our attention to proposals for the autumn deadlines.
As a reminder, please share your plans for autumn bids as early as possible – even before submitting an ItB. This will help us plan support effectively and maximise the number of bids we can support.
For any Horizon Europe-related queries, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Kind regards,
Ainars
Strategic & International Research Facilitator
