Maturing projects for possible future European Defence Projects of Common Interest and preparing their implementation roadmap
This grant supports the preparation and maturation of collaborative projects towards possible future European Defence Projects of Common Interest (EDPCI). Funded actions will prepare and submit solid proposals for EDPCI consideration in 2027 and deliver implementation roadmaps by end 2027 (covering activities to begin 2028-2030) and by end 2030 (covering activities to begin up to 2034). The grant aims to mature potential projects and undertake all required preparatory activities ahead of the 2028-2034 Multiannual Financial Framework. Outcomes will inform future programming but do not commit the Commission to proposal identification nor future EU contributions.
