The network of National Contact Points for Cluster 6, CARE4BIO, invites you to participate in the on-site networking event in Warsaw on 27 May 2025 for the upcoming 2025 calls in Horizon Europe Cluster 6 'Food, Bioeconomy, Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environment'! The brokerage event complements the European Commission's Cluster 6 Info Days for the 2025 calls, which will take place on 20 and 21 May, online. Registration for the onsite Brokerage event in Warsaw will open 17 March 2025.

The CARE4BIO brokerage event (#CARE4BIOBrokerage) will be dedicated to consortium building. The objective is to gather all relevant stakeholders intending to apply for funding in the Horizon Europe Cluster 6 Calls 2025. The main part of the event will comprise bilateral meetings between participants from Europe and beyond interested in the same topics, seeking to share new project ideas and find collaboration partners. Thus, the brokerage event will help you to build your consortium for the for the upcoming Horizon Europe Cluster 6 Calls 2025.

You can pre-arrange the bilateral meetings by means of a user-friendly match-making tool based on the profiles of other participants. In addition to the bilateral meetings between potential project partners, you will also be able to meet with representatives from network projects of other clusters, the EEN, as well as with the NCPs from the CARE4BIO project. This represents an opportunity for attendees to draw on personalised support and information.

The event programme will also provide you a platform to present your project ideas in 5 minutes flash presentations.

Important issues

This brokerage event is looking to help coordinators and partners to further improve and develop their project idea and to find potential collaboration partners, and is not a unique ‘buyer – seller’ event.

The brokerage event should similarly not be used by consultants to sell their advisory services to clients. Consultants with specific expertise who wish to become partners of Horizon Europe projects are welcome, provided they are able to describe and demonstrate this expertise, e.g. by providing references for previous Horizon 2020 or Horizon Europe projects in which they have been involved.

Participation is free of charge, but registration is mandatory. The organisers reserve the right to close the registration before the specified date if the maximum capacity is reached! Please be aware that we had to close registration early in our 2023 Brokerage Event edition because we had reached capacity. Do read your email regarding your attendance, as we will get in touch with you, should your profile not be ready for validation.

Please note that registration does not automatically guarantee that you will be accepted as a participant.
When registering, please fill in at least one Project Cooperation profile stating what exactly you offer or request within the scope of the topic(s). The organisers will check and validate each individual profile and only then admit you to the event. In order to be validated, you must meet certain quality criteria (see 'How it works')!

If you do register and are accepted to the Brokerage Event we ask you to cancel your participation in case you are no longer able to attend. The Brokerage Event has limited participation capacity and any newly available spots can be distributed among a waiting list. CARE4BIO reserves the right to limit participation of unexcused no-shows in future events.

The organisers expect demand for participation to be high. Priority will be given to registrants who provide high quality cooperation profiles. Participation is limited to two people representing the same department/organisation.

The networking event is targeted at anyone interested in participating in projects in the Horizon Europe Cluster 6 calls 2025, such as:
