IPCEI – Important Projects of Common European Interest

IPCEI allows supporting large, strategically important research, development, and innovation projects that connect multiple European Union member states, initial industrial deployment, and infrastructure projects of significant European importance. The support is intended for breakthrough and high technological or financial risk projects that a company would not implement to the same extent, scope, or schedule without public funding. IPCEI is not a single permanent call for proposals, but rather a framework under which national expressions of interest and calls for proposals are organized in specific strategic technology fields.
