Horizon 2020 is the biggest EU research and innovation programme ever. Almost €80 billion of funding have been available over seven years (2014 to 2020) – in addition to the private and national public investment that this money attracted.
Horizon 2020 is helping to achieve smart, sustainable and inclusive economic growth. The goal is to ensure Europe produces world-class science and technology, removes barriers to innovation and makes it easier for the public and private sectors to work together in delivering solutions to big challenges facing our society.
