The Australian Government is set to begin treaty negotiations on association to Horizon Europe, which will give Australian organisations access to the world\u2019s largest pooled research fund in 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Horizon Europe is the European Union\u2019s flagship research and innovation funding program worth $155 billion (AUD).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once associated, Australian organisations can access the current round of Horizon Europe funding to lead and participate in research projects with the brightest minds, including on critical technologies, advanced computing, climate and clean energy, health, and critical minerals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Horizon Europe\u2019s large pool of funding attracts talented researchers and allows research projects at a scale that would be difficult for Australia to achieve alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
More than 20 countries have associated with Horizon Europe, including Canada, New Zealand, the Republic of Korea, and the United Kingdom, and have seen significant return on investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Following the conclusion of the treaty process, it is expected Australian organisations will be able to apply for Horizon Europe research calls from early 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Australia\u2019s association to Horizon Europe will be jointly supported by the Group of Eight universities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI am pleased to join European Commission President von der Leyen in announcing that we will commence negotiations on association to Horizon Europe for 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBy associating with Horizon Europe, we are supporting international research collaboration innovation in Australia, creating jobs and driving productivity to help deliver a Future Made in Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis is a great investment in our future and is testament to the strength of our relationship with the European Union.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAustralia should be rightly proud to be home to some of the world\u2019s most brilliant researchers and the most-cutting edge research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis will help connect Australian researchers with some of Europe\u2019s best and brightest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt will help our world-class universities and researchers to work on game-changing projects that are good for Australia and our economy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHorizon Europe will ensure our researchers have the resources and the partnerships they need to tackle the biggest challenges of our time, from climate change to cutting-edge technology and the next generation of healthcare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe independent Ambitious Australia<\/em> report released last week laid out the importance of making every Aussie research dollar count. Collaborating through Horizon Europe has a multiplier effect and is good value for money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAssociation to Horizon Europe, supported by partners at Australia\u2019s Group of Eight universities, will facilitate access to joint projects with the EU and other associated countries, while also allowing our industry, science and research sectors to lead projects in the Indo-Pacific.
