Objectives pursued
The uptake of Research and Innovation (R&I) results created under the Framework Programme is important for the programme’s success and is instrumental in contributing towards transformative impacts on the economy, society and policy making. Impacts are seen as an effect on, change or benefit to
the economy, society, culture, public policy or services, health, the environment or quality of life.
The Commission will award on an annual basis a recognition prize to reward beneficiaries that have successfully used their research results to create value for society. The beneficiaries must be able to show proof of effective exploitation and uptake of their research results. This action aims to illustrate the wider socio-economic benefits of the EU investment in R&I and to encourage project beneficiaries to best manage and use their research results.
In particular, five winners will be selected by the evaluation jury for their achievements. The prizes are monetary and each of the five winners will receive EUR 10.000. The prizes will be awarded during the Award Ceremony with a selected audience of high-level representatives and promoters of innovation in industry and public sector. The Commission will further promote the winners by inviting them to provide testimony in other major events.
The page-limit for your prize application (Part B) is: 6 pages.
Please also be aware that participants that have already received an EU or Euratom prize cannot receive a second prize for the same activities.
