Namen razpisa:

This Funding Opportunity invites proposals from all sides of the knowledge triangle: innovation, education, and entrepreneurship, but in combination with a key fourth element, citizen/public engagement.

All our funded projects are collaborative and require a minimum of two organisations working together. At least one of these should be a company or social enterprise directly involved with key communities, and at least one other should be a research or university organisation. These organisations should be from at least two different countries eligible to Horizon Europe.

Type of proposals sought in the Single Projects Co-funding Opportunity

We can be flexible in what we fund. While we are always interested in funding new R&D and commercialisation projects with good prospects of getting to market within 12-18 months, we can also provide funding to:

• Existing research project teams who have a commercialisation or impact plan that needs follow-on funding to get to market. These do not have to be previous EIT Food projects – we can support projects previously funded by other EIT organisations, EU programmes and third-party funders – but we cannot “double fund” other current EU funded projects.

• Develop and market new applications and business models for existing technology. This includes transferring proven technology from other sectors into the food industry.

• Run market demonstration and scale-up activities for high impact products or services that already have promising results.

• Demonstrate and expand impact from existing innovative social enterprise, dietary health or education programmes and interventions leading to behaviour change or better consumer outcomes.

Under this scheme, we encourage proposals from consortia based around lead organisations which have the capabilities to move quickly and effectively in creating impact from our co-investment, supported by high-quality research, communications and impact assessment expertise.

Type of proposals sought in the Collaborative Programmes

We are looking to fund and co-resource alliances and collaborative programmes which aim to produce multiple results and high-impact outcomes. By “programmes” we mean connected activities and workstreams across economic, industry and social value chains. Examples of actions we could support to achieve our Mission Targets might include:

co-funding open competitions aimed at accelerating new business, products and processes
jointly funding, co-resourcing and/or co-delivering programmes of activities with other funders, NGOs or charities with shared impact goals
co-ordinating consortia across whole value-chains to scale-up, demonstrate and/or accelerate impact of innovation solutions from the EIT Food project portfolio
jointly supporting innovation and knowledge exchange clusters that deliver new programmes in citizen engagement, business, skills and agri-food innovation in cities/ regions or specialist sectors.
co-funding social enterprise or education programmes that will scale-up interventions, leading to improved outcomes for populations at risk of poor health or food security outcomes supporting the development of networks to test production/manufacturing capabilities for key markets, test farms/services and “living labs” delivering programmes
collaborative programmes resolving sector-relevant strategic issues to enable stronger progress towards meeting Mission Targets.

This may include intersecting areas such as: standards setting and data management; fundraising for systems change; citizen engagement in innovation; consumer behaviour change and improving public understanding of the benefits of innovation in agri-food. The list above is extensive, but not exhaustive.

The Impact Funding Framework consists of two distinct calls: the Single Projects Co-funding Opportunity and the Collaborative Missions Programmes. Each call operates under its specific guidelines.

All proposals must be submitted via an application form on our portal.

For all projects, you must also submit for evaluation:

– A Business Model Canvas
– A Launch Plan (outlining strength of the commercial case and/or strategy to drive adoption by intended users – with supporting evidence and research)
-Where applicable:
Success Sharing Mechanism (for commercial projects)
Proof of current TRL (for technology-based ideas)
