HORIZON 2020:
HOW TO FIND YOUR
PERFECT MATCH
Horizon 2020 is the European Union’s new research and innovation programme valued at nearly €80 billion over seven
years. It is the successor of the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) which ended in 2013. In FP7 the focus was on
technological research; in Horizon 2020, the focus is on innovation. Horizon 2020 is organized across three major pillars:
1) Support for "Excellent Science" – including grants for individual researchers from the European Research Council and
Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellowships (formerly known as Marie Curie fellowships)
2) Support for "Industrial Leadership" – including grants for small and medium-sized enterprises and indirect finance for
companies through the European Investment Bank and other financial intermediaries
3) Support for research to tackle "Societal Challenges". During negotiations between the European Parliament and
Council it was decided to support research towards meeting seven broad challenges
