More than €10bn of funding is available to help innovators across the European Union meet their specific health research and needs.
Horizon 2020 is the EU’s biggest research and innovation programme to date, with over €80 billion of funding available to secure Europe’s place as a producer of world-class innovation in science.
Over the last seven years, Horizon 2020 has invested more than €10bn into health research with the promise to create more breakthroughs, discoveries and world-firsts by allowing companies, research groups and both public and private sectors to focus on what’s important and take their ideas from laboratory to the market.
Horizon 2020 represents an investment in creating better health for every citizen. The project aims to keep older people active and independent for longer and support the development of new, safer and more effective interventions.
Personalising healthcare is at the forefront of the industry and Horizon 2020 will call for more research and innovation to improve our understanding of the healthy ageing and disease, improve our ability to monitor health by detecting, preventing, treating and managing diseases and test new and important models and tools for health and care delivery.
