EC is looking for members of Sounding Board for enhanced Horizon Results Platform
The European Commission has published a Call for Expressions of Interest to join the Sounding Board and help to shape the revamped and enhanced Horizon Results Platform. The Call was published on the Funding & Tenders Portal on 20 June 2025.
The European Commission is planning to improve the Horizon Results Platform with a view to creating a single digital entry point for European innovators, investors, and service providers to find, compare and access funding programmes, services and infrastructure.
The platform aims to accelerate the go-to-market and scale-up for innovative research results, while retaining top innovations and founders within the European Union. The Commission is seeking interested EU-funded Research and Innovation beneficiaries to join its “Sounding Board”.
The Sounding Board is an advisory panel which will consist of approximately 20-25 members, including partners and stakeholders part of the Research and Innovation Dissemination and Exploitation (D&E) ecosystem. It will work remotely to provide feedback on the future platform's usability and suggest improvements. The Board will meet quarterly in a hybrid format, with an expected effort of 2-3 hours per month on a volunteer basis.
The Sounding Board will advise and support the European Commission – Directorate General for Research and Innovation - in its endeavor to build and launch the new single digital entry point, ensuring it meets the needs of its users and effectively supports the innovation community. Members will provide valuable insights and expertise to shape the platform and enhance its efficiency and impact.
Interested Horizon Europe and Horizon2020 beneficiaries, ideally having already registered their results on the Horizon Results Platform are invited to express their interest in joining the Sounding Board before 15th of July 2025 by sending an e-mail to: EC-HORIZON-RESULTS-PLATFORM@ec.europa.eu.
