Find Funding Opportunities by Cluster
European Union Funding & Tenders Site
European Commission calls for proposals are published on the European Union’s Funding & Tenders Portal.
The Funding & Tenders Portal allows users to:
- Search for relevant funding calls;
- Participate in partner matchmaking events and programs; and
