grant Background

About the Funding Agency

The European Union's Framework 7 Programme (FP7) for research financing expired in 2014 to be replaced by the new Horizon 2020 program which is the financial instrument used to establish Innovation Union, a flagship program of Europe 2020 that aims to ensure Europe's worldwide competitiveness.

Horizon 2020 is intended to be a tool to stimulate economic growth and create employment and enjoys the political support of Europe's leaders and Members of the European Parliament.

Horizon 2020 contributes to this goal by tying research and innovation together and concentrating on three critical areas: outstanding science, industrial leadership and societal issues. The objective is for Europe to create world-class research and technology which will drive economic growth.

Furthermore, the program concentrates its efforts on fewer issues with larger resources therefore directly supporting the Commission's political goals. It works to build a low-carbon, a climate-resilient future, connect economic and environmental advantages, develop a the circular economy and digitize and modernize European industry and services to increase effectiveness.

Belgium

Belgium invests in port expansion, rail freight corridors, highway modernization, and digital infrastructure to strengthen its position as a European logistics gateway. Major ports such as Antwerp-Bruges play a central role in trade and industrial supply chains. Infrastructure financing combines federal and regional government budgets with EU support and PPP frameworks. Urban congestion, energy transition goals, and coordination across federal regions influence project implementation.
