EIC Pathfinder Challenge

The EIC Pathfinder Challenge is a program aimed at supporting SMEs, research centres, universities or large companies that form consortiums, as well as individual entities (not large companies), that work on disruptive ideas in their early R&D stages, ideas that may end up becoming scientific or technological advances that will lead the way in the future.

Analysis:

  • I have an idea that is so disruptive and risky that worked on it yet

  • The idea is still at a low TRL (maximum TRL 2-3)

  • My goal is to demonstrate the scientific basis for this idea in the shape of a proof of concept or on laboratory level (TRL 4-5)

  • This idea can be the pillar of a new way of attacking a certain problem, even changing the rules of the game

  • In addition to my own organisation, I know other partners with whom I can form the perfect team to reach the proof of concept of this technology
