Seeking Proposals for EUREKA Eurostars Call 7

The Eurostars programme is Eureka’s flagship R&D call, where you can participate in joint innovation projects with more than 45 other countries.

The Eureka Eurostars programme, under the European Partnership on Innovative SMEs, supports international R&D and collaborative innovation projects. Companies from Singapore and any other Eureka member country are welcome to participate and collaborate with organisations of all types – from SMEs and large companies, to research organisations and Institutes of Higher Learning (IHLs) – in leading and emerging markets. The programme is open to projects from all sectors, as long as it results in a new product or solution.

To have a successful Eurostars application you must:

• Define your project idea
• Collaborate internationally, sharing expertise
• Develop products, processes or services that can be easily commercialised

More information about Eurostars and participating countries can be found here.

Singapore companies must form a consortium with at least one organisation coming from an EU or Horizon Europe Associated Country. No partner should be responsible for more than 70% of the project budget.
