The Euroclusters open call invites collaborative cluster initiatives to support the recovery and resilience of Europe's industrial ecosystems. The primary goal is to foster innovation and the adoption of advanced technologies for strategic autonomy, building capacity in critical areas, and transforming the economy into a greener, more digital, and resilient one.

Euroclusters will contribute to the European Commission’s New Industrial Strategy for Europe, the SME Strategy for a Sustainable and Digital Europe, and the Green Deal Industrial Plan for the Net-Zero Age. They aim to establish networks and strategic partnerships to enhance the resilience of EU industrial ecosystems, provide training for workforce upskilling and reskilling, and boost access to global supply and value chains.

The call is divided into two strands: Strand 1 focuses on net-zero technologies and critical raw materials, while Strand 2 covers other value chains. Each project must address only one strand.

Eligible applicants include legal entities established in eligible countries, representing cluster organisations or networks supporting green and digital transitions. The available budget is EUR 42,000,000, funding 16 projects (with at least 8 for Strand 1).

The maximum project duration is 36 months. The deadline to apply is 5 February 2025, 17:00 CET. For enquiries, contact EISMEA-SMP-COSME-ENQUIRIES@ec.europa.eu.
