With UK association to the Horizon Europe programme now secured, what happens next is what really matters – the engineering and technology partnerships, grants and impacts that will be possible through Horizon funding. We want to use our network of Fellows and awardees who have experience of participation to pass that knowledge on to the next generation.
The event will consist of a panel event with Q&A and an opportunity to network and connect with our network of experts and other likeminded engineers.

About the Academy CAFÉ series
Our online Academy CAFÉ (Connecting Awardees, Fostering Engagement) series is exclusively for members of the Awardee Excellence Community. The series ensures you can benefit from the expertise and experience within the Academy’s network, as well as allowing you to share ideas, challenges and best practice.
The Awardee Excellence Community is open to current awardees and alumni of the Academy’s awards and prizes. If you’ve not already signed up to join the community, please email [email protected].
Find out more about the community here.
