Research institutions, businesses, industry sectors, governmental bodies, and non-profit organizations based in Horizon Europe countries (excluding Türkiye) may be apply eligible for travel and accommodation support in İstanbul until 4th of January 2027.

To apply for support, please complete the following steps on B2match:

• Complete your participant profile: Provide clear and up-to-date information about your organisation.

2.       Selection and notification

Applications will be reviewed weekly as they are received. Selection will be based mainly on the relevance and quality of the Cooperation Profile and pitching presentation, and their potential for meaningful collaboration.

Where applications are of comparable quality, earlier submissions may be given priority. As the number of supported places is limited, support may be fully allocated before the application deadline. Early applications are therefore encouraged.

The Project team will inform selected participants whether they have been approved for travel support, accommodation support, or both. Only participants who receive explicit confirmation from the Project team may benefit from support.

If your application is approved, the Project team will contact you by email and provide instructions on the next steps. You will then be asked to indicate whether you wish to receive travel support, accommodation support, or both.
