Short description

The Innovative Health Initiative (IHI) is launching its first calls for proposal in late June. The Kick-off and brokerage event takes place as a one-day hybrid event on 14 June 2022 at Hotel Le Plaza Brussels. The focus is on network building, how to write good project proposals and building strong, effective consortia.

IHI's governance structure reflects our status as a public-private partnership while ensuring that we benefit from the input of the wider scientific and health community as well as the Member States and countries associated to Horizon Europe.

The first calls for proposals will be launched in June 2022!

Description

In the first session, IHI will present the content of the calls and outline the rules for participation. Topics covered will be the research priorities of IHI, call conditions, and even specific opportunities for SMEs.

The second session is the moment for consortia building. In the room, there will be available timeslots to make short elevator pitches on your proposals.

Whether you are in the room or in a virtual environment, participants will be able to book meetings through an online platform with representatives who have an interest in the same topics.

Participation in the event is free of charge! However, registration and profile activation will be mandatory to attend the brokerage event. A networking lunch will be provided for those in the room.
