- The United Kingdom is associated with the EU on research projects
- Projects include climate change protection and cancer research
- Horizon Europe brings together the best scientists from around the world
The United Kingdom has announced its intention to deepen and strengthen links with the EU, in particular with regard to research and innovation projects around technology.
The news will see the United Kingdom to launch an advertising campaign nationally and a series of roadshows in the hope of attracting researchers to join the EU peak research program, Horizon Europe.
Horizon Europe, which is the largest research collaboration program in the world, has a budget of almost 100 billion euros. The program has five missions; Adaptation to climate change, cancer research, ocean and waters, the construction of neutral and intelligent cities on climate and catering and protecting soil health.
An innovation power
The United Kingdom is not the only non-UNE nation to participate in Horizon Europe, with other partnerships, including South Korea, New Zealand and Norway.
To further increase collaboration, the United Kingdom should also join four European infrastructure (Erics) consortiums. They will bring together the most brilliant minds of the continent, to promote “deep and high quality links”.
By participating in these research programs, not only will the United Kingdom be hoping to benefit from the results of research projects by developing climatic user-friendly practices and protections, but also to forge collaborative relationships with the best researchers in the world.
“There is no doubt about this: we have our best chances to take up the great challenges of our time, from climate change to public health, to growing savings that work for everyone, bringing the most Brilliants of the United Kingdom and the European Union together, “said British secretary on science and technology, Peter Kyle.
“The United Kingdom is determined to give our researchers, innovators and businesses the opportunities and platforms they need to give life to their big ideas, for the benefit of all of us – all highlighted by our new Horizon advertising campaign. I am happy to have had such fruitful conversations with my European friends and colleagues, to go even further this vital partnership. »»
