Teaming calls are expected to aid establishing new centers of excellence or modernising existing ones with the help of leading European partnering institutions. This will help countries to increase their R&I intensity and to attain a competitive position in the European R&I system and globally, especially by becoming drivers of change.
A Teaming project must involve at least two beneficiaries: a) the main applicant organisation (the coordinator) which will be a legal entity (university or a research organisation, a national/regional authority or a research funding agency), and b) at least one leading university or research organisation established in another Member State or Associated Country as an advanced partner. The EU estimates that an EU contribution of between EUR 8.00 and 15.00 Euros for 6 years.
The project must have a complementary funding (e.g. national and/or regional funding, European funding, such as from Cohesion policy programmes, or private sources). Its total amount must at least equal the total requested Horizon Europe contribution.Teaming for Excellence is a CSA call that supports coordination and capacity building activities. Specifically for the Teaming for Excellence call, 10% of the budget may be used in Research and Innovation activities.
The deadline for applications is 10th April 2025
