About the event
The ERC Proof of Concept Grants (PoC) aim at facilitating exploration of the commercial and social innovation potential of ERC funded research. You may apply for a PoC if you are a Principal Investigator in a Starting, Consolidator, Advanced or Synergy Grant.
Line Fredslund Volkers, call coordinator for PoC at the ERC, tells you what you need to know about PoC before you apply. We have two contributions from researchers who received PoC projects. Finally, the National Contact Point for EIC (European Innovation Councill) will speak about the possibilities in EIC. In the first EIC Transition call of the majority of the researchers getting a grant had previously received ERC grants.
The 2024 ERC PoC-call opened in November 2023 and there will be two deadlines: 14. March and 17. September.
The webinar will be in English.
