Horizon 2020 Grant Writing

21st March 2014 By Bid Management Services

The EU’s ambitious Horizon 2020 funding has a total of €79 billion to allocate to projects over the next 7 years. The amount of funding available for 2014 is €7.8 billion. The Irish government has forecast that Ireland will aim to receive €1.25 billion which marks a huge increase from the €600 million received under the FP7 programme.

The upcoming deadline for the SME instrument funding is the 18th June 2014.

In this stage 1 of the instrument SMEs receive funding for a feasibility study with the expected outcome being a business plan. The funding is 70% and the amount is €50,000.
Applications can be submitted by a single SME or together with a European partner.

Bid Management Services can identify the call most suitable for you and assist you in writing an application. Contact us for further information on our Horizon 2020 application writing service.
