Corporación Tecnológica de Andalucía (CTA) is seeking cooperation with coordinators and consortia preparing proposals for the 2027 Horizon Europe Cluster 6 calls.

We are particularly interested in project opportunities addressing:

• Circular bioeconomy, sustainable biomass flows and bio-based value chains

• Bioeconomy places and regional bioeconomy ecosystems

• Circular solutions, ecodesign, recycling, upcycling and industrial symbiosis

• Water resilience, wastewater management and water-nutrient-energy solutions

• Digital and climate-smart agriculture, resilient farming and diversified value chains

• Biodiversity, nature restoration, Nature-based Solutions and living labs

• Soil health, agroforestry, pollution reduction and sustainable land management

• Sustainable food systems, microbiome solutions and aquatic value chains

• Knowledge valorisation, innovation uptake, replication and market deployment

CTA can contribute to proposals through:

• Management of Financial Support to Third Parties and open calls

• Multi-actor approach and stakeholder engagement

• Mobilisation of companies, SMEs, public authorities and regional demonstrators

• Design and coordination of living labs and innovation ecosystems

• Exploitation, business models, market analysis and commercialisation roadmaps

• Replication, scale-up and transfer of solutions across European regions

• Policy uptake and alignment with regional smart specialisation strategies

• Communication, dissemination, clustering and knowledge transfer

• Consortium coordination and project management, where appropriate

CTA can also facilitate access to Andalusian companies, public authorities, research organisations, agricultural and bioeconomy stakeholders, and potential pilot or validation environments.

We welcome contact from coordinators and partners looking for an experienced innovation intermediary capable of connecting research, industry, public authorities and markets, and of strengthening the impact, uptake and long-term sustainability of Horizon Europe projects.
