FIT-4-NMP: Strategic and targeted support to incentivise talented newcomers to NMP projects under Horizon Europe

21 January 2021

Intelligentsia Consultants are proud to have won and to be coordinating the recently started FIT-4-NMP project.

FIT-4-NMP is a support action funded by the European Commission’s Horizon 2020 programme to increase the participation of talented newcomers from underrepresented regions in the Horizon Europe programme in the fields of nanotechnologies, advanced materials and new manufacturing processes (NMP), as compared to Horizon 2020.

Talented newcomers are promising innovation organisations – especially SMEs – that have not participated in H2020 NMP. Meanwhile, underrepresented regions are regions in EU-13, EU-15 and Associated Countries with a low participation in H2020 NMBP. The increase in participation of the talented newcomers will be brought about by connecting them with NMP hotspots, where important NMP innovations are demonstrated, as well as networking them with NMP Top Innovators.
