Horizon 2020, the EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation, is the world's largest funding programme for research projects. With a € 77 billion budget, it offers many possibilities for researchers and innovators of all thematic areas from around the world - international cooperation is highly encouraged.

This webinar will deal with:

  • General structure of Horizon2020
  • Outlook on legal and financial aspects
  • Possibilities specifically for US researchers

The presentation is done by the German National Contact Point for International Cooperation (6th Challenge). The webinar is organised jointly with INCONTACT 2020 (www.ncp-incontact.eu) - an EU project supporting international cooperation in Horizon 2020.

This seminar will be the first of a series of BILAT USA 2.0 webinars. This one taking a more general approach, the next four webinars will deal with the four priority areas for EU-US cooperation (Marine and Arctic research, Transport, NMP and Health). The following webinars will go into details of specific H2020 calls and conditions.

More information on the webinar series will soon be available on www.euussciencetechnology.eu.
