EIC selects 27 new projects under Transition scheme
The European Innovation Council has published the results of the latest EIC transition cut-off. 27 projects were selected to take novel technologies from lab to market readiness.
Each of these successful proposals, selected among 257 eligible submissions, will receive a grant of up to €2.5 million. The selected participants come from 16 EU Member States and Horizon Europe associated countries.
The 27 selected projects consist of:
- 12 under the Open funding;
- 10 under the “Micro-Nano Bio devices” Challenge;
- 1 under the “Environmental intelligence” Challenge;
- 4 under the “Chip-scale optical frequency combs” Challenge.
EIC Transition funding provides follow-up funding to results achieved by EIC Pathfinder, FET (Future and Emerging Technologies), and European Research Council Proof of Concept projects. While the Open funding scheme awarded projects with no predefined thematic priorities, Transition Challenges give support to projects within predefined thematic areas with the aim of achieving specific objectives for each Challenge.
The selected projects will have access to EIC Business Acceleration Services including coaching, mentoring, and partnering events. Projects are also eligible for the fast-track scheme to access the EIC Accelerator for supporting the commercialisation and scale up phases.
