The series supports capacity building and aims to increase participation in Horizon Europe calls, particularly for early-stage applicants.

Experts from the Research Funding Support Office will present upcoming calls, expected impacts, eligibility criteria, and lessons learned from past application rounds—helping EU GREEN researchers build stronger, competitive proposals and collaborate across the alliance.
