If your lump sum budget contains any cost items in cost category C and/or D, please make sure to justify these items in the ‘Any comments’ sheet of the Excel detailed lump sum budget table.
The reason is that we simplified the proposal template, removing this information from Part B and bringing it closer to the relevant budget items.
Specifically, you must include justification in the ‘Any comments’ sheet if you are in any of the following situations:
If the sum of the costs for ’travel and subsistence’, ‘equipment’, and ‘other goods, works and services’ (i.e. the purchase costs) exceeds 15% of the personnel costs for a participant. If this is the case, justify the most expensive cost item(s) up to the level that the remaining costs are below 15% of personnel costs.
If other cost categories (e.g. internally invoiced goods and services) are used.
If in-kind contributions are used (non-financial resources made available free of charge by third parties, which must be included as direct costs in the corresponding cost category, e.g. personnel costs or purchase costs for equipment).
The submission session is now available for: HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-24, HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-46, HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-13, HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-01, HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-45, HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-05, HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-12, HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-41, HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-11, HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-14, HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-04, HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-31, HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-44, HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-23, HORIZON-CL4-2026-01-MAT-PROD-48
Advanced materials are an important factor for the competitiveness of Japanese and European industries and are a crucial building block for strengthening resilience and open strategic autonomy, including through international collaboration. Against this background, the European Commission and the Japanese Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation Policy, have in April 2024 announced the launch of the EU-Japan Enhanced Dialogue[1] on Advanced Materials. This builds on the success of EU-Japan collaboration in R&I in material sciences. It aims to create a platform for sharing information on policy developments and exploring the opportunities to pursue collaborative research in the areas of mutual interest.
As part of the EU-Japan Enhanced Dialogue on Advanced Materials and taking into account the Communication on Advanced Materials for Industrial Leadership[2], the purpose of this action is to enable European researchers in innovative advanced materials from Member States and Associated Countries to make research visits to related Japanese institutions. Proposals should aim to provide travel grants strengthening collaboration in relevant ongoing research activities in Europe on the topic of advanced materials with applications to either mobility, energy, construction, electronics or medical devices. Proposals should ensure a wide geographical coverage of the grants in Member States and Associated Countries. They should aim at visits to research groups at Japanese organisations with complementary activities for up to one month duration. Such travel grants should build on collaborations with Japanese organisations that are willing to receive such a visits. Proposals can either support the initiation of new collaborations, or existing collaborations.
