Apply for Horizon 2020 funding
Norwegian companies, public administration and academic institutions can apply to Horizon 2020 for funding for research, innovation and commercialisation activities. In addition to EU funding, participation in H2020 activities provides access to outstanding research networks, infrastructure and new markets. If you have received project funding from the Research Council, why not also apply to Horizon 2020?

Coronavirus information
If you are a project partner in a Horizon 2020 project and are prevented from fulfilling your obligations according to the Grant Agreement (MGA), or even to work on the project, please contact your project coordinator immediately. He or she will contact the Project Officer (PO). The European Commission will look into the possible application of the rules of force majeure on a case-by-case basis as it is defined in Article 51 of the H2020 MGA.
For example, if scheduled meetings, seminars or workshops are cancelled, budgeted accrued costs could be covered if they are not covered by others. The Commission will make an assessment of each individual case.
