Frequently asked questions
What is the deadline for the HORIZON-BRIDGING-2027-06-02 call?
The call has been open since 20 October 2026, and the submission deadline is 16 February 2027, 17:00 CET, in a single stage.
What is the budget of the Horizon Europe Bridging 2027 call for exploiting results?
The total budget is €20 million, for about 5 grants of €2.5–4 million each.
Can a company apply on its own?
No. European consortia apply, as a rule with at least 3 organisations from 3 countries, made up of knowledge intermediaries (technology transfer offices, incubators, clusters, innovation platforms). A company can be a partner in a consortium.
What does the call aim to achieve?
To help holders of Horizon project results be better prepared to take products and solutions to market, with clearer value propositions, validated use cases and credible routes to commercialisation, and to strengthen collaboration between research, education and innovation.
What problem does the call try to solve?
Many Horizon projects end with proof of concept and laboratory validation, while market-oriented support comes only at later stages. The call fills this gap between research results and their exploitation.
How long does it take to prepare the application?
It depends on the complexity of the project and the documents you already have. The first step is the eligibility analysis, which tells you what needs to be prepared.
What happens if I do not qualify?
We tell you before any contract is signed, and if another suitable programme exists, we point you to it.
