These projects have brought a net contribution of €43.54m to the Maltese research community- Mark Meilak
To further boost this support, Xjenza Malta has also launched several schemes aimed at increasing and strengthening the participation by local participants in the programme. Five key support schemes are currently available. These include support to Maltese coordinators for: proposal writing; training for incoming post-doctoral researchers; a networking scheme; support for individual high-profile researchers; and support for start-ups and SMEs through mentoring and training.
These support schemes target specific areas of the Horizon Europe programme, including areas in which Maltese stakeholders have traditionally been less competitive.
The impact of Malta’s involvement in Horizon Europe
Malta’s growing involvement in Horizon Europe is contributing to strengthening the country’s research and innovation landscape. By participating in cutting-edge research collaborations with leading EU organisations, Malta is enhancing its research capabilities, while fostering economic growth and job creation.
The funded projects cover a wide range of critical research areas, including health, culture, climate change, clean energy, mobility, digital transformation, civil security, agriculture and the environment. These projects not only address key national priorities but also contribute to the larger global challenges outlined in the Horizon Europe programme.
A call to action
Xjenza Malta, through the NCPs, is committed to supporting the Maltese research community in all the activities related to the Horizon Europe programme. The NCPs regularly organise workshops, information days and client meetings, providing personalised assistance to local researchers and entities interested in applying for funding, as well as being available for all kinds of queries and support.
Maltese researchers and organisations are encouraged to take advantage of the funding opportunities available within Horizon Europe. The success stories achieved so far demonstrate Malta’s ability to excel in this competitive field.
