Future opportunities

Learn about the topics that are in the pipeline for future calls for proposals.

Learn about our future calls for proposals

We publish draft information on future call topics a few months ahead of the official call launch. We do this to give you additional time to find or build a consortium and prepare a strong proposal. Note that as draft topics are still under development, the texts may change considerably between the versions published here and the call launch, and you should always check the final, approved topic texts once the calls are launched.

IHI to pilot novel, applicant-driven approach to next call for proposals

While previous IHI calls defined the challenges applicants should address, call 9 will invite applicants to identify untapped opportunities in the IHI Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda.

Proposals will still have to adhere to the philosophy of IHI. In other words, they will have to: address an unmet public health need; require a large-scale, ambitious, cross-sector, public-private partnership; have clearly-described impacts on society, the economy and science; take account of the pre-competitive nature of IHI projects.

  • Find out more in our news story about the call
  • Watch the recording and view the slides from our online info session on 10 October, which covered the scope of IHI call 9 and how to get the most out of our brokerage platform and event.
  • Register for our brokerage platform and event. The event will be held in Brussels on 12-13 November, and online on 14 November. The platform will remain open until the call deadline.

 

Get networking

If you want to apply to take part in a new IHI project, one of your first tasks will be to find or build an applicant consortium, and to do this, you will need to find partners. Tips on finding partners can be found on our find partners page.
