The University of Huddersfield is delighted to announce that Catherine Holt, NCP for Horizon Europe, will be presenting an update on the Horizon Europe funding opportunities relevant to the space community.

In this webinar we will be:

  • Promoting the opportunities for funding space projects in Horizon Europe.
  • Helping organisations – both industry, universities and RTOs understand if Horizon Europe is right for them.
  • Giving a brief overview of typical proposal requirements, rules and application process.

A brief update will be given on the forthcoming new draft Work Programme and there will also be information given on funds to enable parties to attend key Horizon Europe events this year for the purposes of networking and building consortia.
