More than 50% of the budget supports modernisation through policies that include: Research and Innovation, via Horizon Europe. Fair climate and digital transitions, via the Just Transition Fund and the Digital Europe programme. Preparedness, recovery and resilience, via the Recovery and Resilience Facility and a new Health Programme, EU4Health. Traditional policies such as the cohesion and common agricultural policy will be modernised and receive a significant EU budget to support the green and digital transitions. 30% of EU funding, under both NextGenerationEU and MFF, will be dedicated to fight climate change. The package also gives specific attention to biodiversity protection and gender mainstreaming.

PILLAR 1 The Excellent Science Pillar aims to increase the EU’s global scientific competitiveness. It supports frontier research projects driven by top researchers through the European Research Council, funds fellowships for experienced researchers, doctoral training networks and exchanges through Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, and invests in world-class research infrastructures. PILLAR 2 The Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness Pillar supports research relating to societal challenges and reinforces technological and industrial capacities through clusters. It sets ambitious goals for EU missions. It also includes the Joint Research Centre which supports EU and national policymakers with independent scientific evidence and technical support. PILLAR 3 The Innovative Europe Pillar aims to make Europe a frontrunner in market-creating innovation via the European Innovation Council. It also helps to develop the overall EU innovation landscape through the European Institute of Innovation and Technology which fosters integration of the knowledge triangle of education, research and innovation. HORIZONTAL PILLAR Widening Participation and Strengthening the European Research Area (ERA) by increasing support to the EU Member States in their efforts to make the most of their national research and innovation potential, fostering closer collaborations and spreading excellence.

Both Horizon Europe and Horizon 2020 consist of three pillars, as well as horizontal actions. 1 Changes to Pillar 1: Excellent Science vs Open Science. ‘Future and Emerging Technologies’ (FET) has been removed from this pillar and spread out across the other two. FET Flagship actions have evolved into the Mission actions in Pillar 2, whilst the remaining FET actions moved to Pillar 3, with a focus on market-making breakthrough/disruptive innovation. 2 Changes to Pillar 2: Societal vs Global Challenges and Industrial Competitiveness. The main difference here is the addition of so-called Missions that are similar to H2020 FET flagship projects, but with set challenges aiming to boldly impact society and policy-making for a significant part of Europe. 3 Changes to Pillar 3: Industrial Leadership vs Open Innovation. Where the focus is on stimulating and supporting market-creating breakthrough innovations. The three main components are: The European Innovation Council (EIC) which supports breakthrough innovations, with either ‘Pathfinder’ grants (for early tech) or ‘Accelerator’ funding (for pre-commercial work). The European Innovation Ecosystems (EIE) which focuses on developing networks of interactions between innovators. The European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) which brings key research, education, and business actors together around a common goal. 4 Changes to the horizontal pillar: several planned actions. Which support these three Pillars, to widen participation and reform/enhance the current systems, include: More participation from non-EU countries with good capacity in science, technology, and innovation. An update to partnership approaches, consolidating them into three possible forms: Co-programmed, Co-funded and Institutionalised. It’s mandatory that publications and data produced through the programme are open access. European Innovation Council The EIC aims to identify and support breakthrough technologies and game changing innovations to create new markets and scale up internationally. The EIC is a key novelty of Horizon Europe and represents the most ambitious innovation initiative that Europe has taken, with a budget of €10 billion for the period 2021-2027 and funding opportunities worth more than €1.5 billion in 2021 only! EIC Pathfinder Support to research teams to research or develop an emerging breakthrough technology EIC Transition Mature a novel technology and develop a business case to bring it to market EIC Accelerator Funding and investments through the EIC Fund for individual start-ups and small companies to develop and scale-up game-changing innovations EIC Business Acceleration Services All EIC supported projects and companies get access to coaching, mentoring, partnering and other EIC Business Acceleration Services European Innovation Ecosystems Specific support to enable innovation ecosystem actors to work together across Europe EIC Prizes Take the challenge and compete for an EIC Prize which rewards Europe’s leading innovators VISIT THE EUROPEAN INNOVATION COUNCIL PORTAL5 Horizon Europe – Mission Areas European research and innovation missions aim to deliver solutions to some of the greatest challenges facing our world. Missions are: be bold, inspirational and widely relevant to society be clearly framed: targeted, measurable and time-bound establish impact-driven but realistic goals mobilise resources link activities across different disciplines and types of research and innovation drive a systemic change and transform landscapes rather than fix problems in existing ones The areas covered by the mission are: Cancer Adaptation to climate change including societal transformation Healthy oceans, seas, coastal and inland waters Climate-neutral and smart cities Soil health and food Partnerships in Horizon Europe Horizon Europe supports European partnerships with EU countries, the private sector, foundations and other stakeholders. The aim is to deliver on global challenges and industrial modernisation through concerted research and innovation efforts. There are three types of partnerships: Co-programmed European Partnerships. These are partnerships between the Commission and private and/or public partners. They are based on memoranda of understanding and/or contractual arrangements. Co-funded European Partnerships. Co-funded European Partnerships using a programme co-fund action. Partnerships involving EU countries, with research funders and other public authorities at the core of the consortium. Institutionalised European Partnerships. Institutionalised European Partnerships where the EU participates in research and innovation funding programmes undertaken by EU countries. These partnerships require legislative proposals from the EC and are based on a Council Regulation or a Decision by the EU Parliament and Council. The European Commission and the industry announced investments for €22 billion in European Partnerships to deliver solutions to major societal challenges.
