The meeting brings together beneficiaries of the five Coordination and Support Actions (CSAs) funded under the topic HORIZON-CL5-2023-D2-01-07 “Support for the deployment of R&I results for climate mitigation. Synergies with the ETS Innovation Fund.”

The general objectives of the meeting are:

  • to foster the collaboration among the five CSAs;
  • to explore common and joint dissemination and communication activities;
  • to promote the exchange of experiences and best practices, with a special focus on the innovation pipeline from system demonstration to deployment stage for innovation
  • to share challenges and lessons learned during the application

Creating synergies between relevant EU funding programmes is a key element for the effective acceleration of R&I results along the EU innovation pipeline towards deployment. This innovation pipeline concerns the development of a supply chain of R&I projects from relevant programmes, such as H2020/HE, to prepare successful applications under the Innovation Fund for a specific thematic sector covered by the Fund.

An important part of the event will focus on “Project’s implementation, progress, and challenges, incl. lessons learned from IF applications”. If you’d like to contribute, please share your feedback in our online questionnaire, designed to collect experiences and challenges faced during the application process.

Representatives from the 5 CSA projects, as well from the European Commission (DG CLIMA, DG RTD) and from CINEA will also attend the event.
