We would like to draw your attention to an update of the “Detailed Budget Table” Excel template. A new template has been republished for your kind consideration and use.

An additional paragraph has been added to the instructions tab, explaining how to save the detailed budget table and how to upload it in the submission system:

“After you completed this Excel workbook, you must also complete the table ‘Budget for the proposal’ in Part A of the proposal, entering the requested EU contribution for each participant. Fill the Part A budget table using the total for each participant from the sheet ‘Lump sum breakdown’ in this Excel workbook. The format of this Excel workbook is .xlsm because it uses macros to generate sheets and make calculations automatically. Always save it as .xlsm. However, this format cannot be uploaded to the submission system for security reasons. Therefore, to submit the completed workbook, save a copy as an .xlsx or .xls document (and not as .xlsm) and upload it to the proposal submission tool at Step 5 of the submission process. Always keep a copy of the original .xlsm file. To save the workbook as .xlsx document, use the action button in the sheet “Instructions”. Alternatively, click on “File” and then “Save as”; in the “Save as” dialog box, choose “.xlsx” or “.xls” from the “Save as type” dropdown list.”

You can still use the template initially available in the submission system if you wish to, but please be aware of the instructions on how to upload and save the file.

TOPIC ID: HORIZON-CL4-2023-DIGITAL-EMERGING-01-53

Programme: Horizon Europe Framework Programme (HORIZON)
Call: Digital and emerging technologies for competitiveness and fit for the Green Deal (HORIZON-CL4-2023-DIGITAL-EMERGING-01)
Type of action: HORIZON-RIA HORIZON Research and Innovation Actions
Type of MGA: HORIZON Lump Sum Grant [HORIZON-AG-LS]
Deadline model: single-stage
Opening date: 08 December 2022
Deadline date: 29 March 2023 17:00:00 Brussels time

ExpectedOutcome:
Projects are expected to contribute to at least two of the following outcomes:

Outcome 1: Increased manufacturing productivity or increased quality and speed of diagnosis results;
Outcome 2: Increased accuracy and/or reduced feature size in microelectronics production including packaging for the integration of photonic and electronic functionalities on chips;
Outcome 3: Increased specificity of diagnosis of human tissue, specific single cells, or molecular biomarkers in body liquids.
Scope:
Proposals should address new versatile light sources and lasers, concept and systems for extended and new fields of applications. Research challenges include:

Sources with multi-specification / multi-application potential;
Extended or new wavelength ranges, novel coherent sources;
Flexible and variable energy deposition (e.g. material processing, medical diagnosis) ;
Versatility by flexible pulse shapes, repetition rates and intensities (cw down to fs and bursts);
Miniaturized light sources and lasers employing photonic integrated circuit technology
Versatility by spectral tuneability, coherence and multi-wavelength emission;
Laser concepts and systems for multiphoton microscopy, spectroscopy and imaging.

The results and benefits of the developed technologies should be demonstrated in at least two realistic use cases.

Proposals submitted under this topic should include a business case and exploitation strategy, as outlined in the introduction to this Destination.

This topic implements the co-programmed European Partnership Photonics.

Specific Topic Conditions:

Activities are expected to start at TRL 2 and achieve TRL 5 by the end of the project – see General Annex B.
