The European Commission is organising an information day focusing on the upcoming calls for proposals under Horizon 2020's Societal Challenge ‘Climate action, environment, resource efficiency and raw materials’ and related call topics in the ‘Blue Growth - Demonstrating an ocean of opportunities’, ‘Industry 2020 in the circular economy’ and ‘Smart and sustainable cities’ focus areas.
Representatives of the research community, SME associations, businesses, industry and European institutions are invited to join the event.
The morning plenary session will inform participants about the general strategy, horizontal aspects and the 2016 call topics under the new work programme and provide guidance on the preparation and submission of proposals.
The afternoon sessions will be devoted to specific topics of the 2016 call for proposals and include networking opportunities. Participants will have the opportunity to present their organisation and contribution to a specific topic.
Sessions will also be webstreamed and you are welcome to submit your questions via Twitter using #H2020SC5.
