Projected from the months this call usually opens — not a date the funder has confirmed.
Projected from the pattern of past calls — confirm on the funder's page before planning around it.
A cross-cutting initiative rather than a single fund. It combines the annual NEB Prizes (cash prizes historically up to EUR 30,000 per category, with a Rising Stars strand for under-30s), the EIT Community NEB calls that award five-figure grants to ventures, and dedicated NEB topics inside Horizon Europe and LIFE.
You must co-fund 0%.
European Commission, with EIT Community and Horizon Europe contributions
public · supranational
Deadline: annual_call — NEB Prizes run annually with applications typically opening in winter and closing in spring. EIT Community NEB calls have their own dates.
This funder does not publish a success rate. We rank it using the rate observed across similar programmes and label it as an estimate rather than implying we know.
Quick — mostly identity and bank details.
