Are you looking for relevant partners to apply for European project calls or aiming to expand cooperation in the field of digital technologies and innovation? We invite you to join a new international speed-dating platform designed to connect participants for all digitalisation-related calls under the Horizon Europe programme.
This innovative format of targeted B2B meetings enables networking with researchers, innovators, entrepreneurs, and experts from across Europe. The platform offers opportunities to exchange ideas, find partners, and build future consortia. Registration is now open – sign up today.
Calls in the field of digitalisation open on 15 January 2026 and remain open until 15 April 2026, during which time networking through the speed-dating platform will also be available.

The Idealist2027 project, in which SRCE participates as one of 32 project partners, focuses on strengthening the network of National Contact Points for the digitalisation area of Horizon Europe. The project provides tools, knowledge, and skills to enhance the quality of support offered to researchers and innovators applying for Horizon Europe funding.
All details on the new work programmes, as well as announcements of national events related to call presentations and proposal preparation, are available on the national Horizon Europe portal. More information about the Idealist2027 project can be found on the project’s website.
