Horizon 2020 is coming to an end. It’s now the time to get prepared to Horizon Europe.

– fully understand its rationale and novelties (Jean-Eric Paquet),

– hear H2020 success stories by academics (Tuba Bircan) and SMEs (Guillaume Wegria, FYTEKO),

– remind the commitment of Belgium in the programme (Pierre Cartuyvels and Didier Flagothier) as well as the support that researchers, entrepreneurs, public bodies and associations can get from NCPs.
