Horizon Europe Project Call on AI – Canadian Partners Sought – Pitch and Matchmaking Online Session

Please see below this unique chance to network and pursue an Horizon Europe project call on AI worth over C$10 million where Canadian participation is actively sought.

Project call theme is: “Trustworthy, explainable and robust AI.” Budget C$10+ million. It states: to achieve expected outcomes, international cooperation is encouraged, in particular with Canada and India.

Details of the project call could be published on April 17^th. Deadline, not yet known, will likely be three months after the effective date.

This is an exceptional opportunity for Canadians – companies, researchers, innovators – who excel in AI and wish to co-innovate with European partners on projects that typically are valued at C$2 to $6 million.

More importantly, pursuing these calls will help Canadian innovators build on an innovation that can take 3-5 years to develop, and connect with potential future partners, clients and markets.
