About
Partnership Opportunity – Horizon Europe NATURE Calls
ECITD (Egyptian Center for Innovation and Technology Development) is seeking to join established Horizon Europe consortia as a partner contributing to specific project activities.
ECITD is an independent Egyptian innovation and technology development centre with experience in European and Euro-Mediterranean cooperation, innovation ecosystems, institutional development, stakeholder engagement and knowledge transfer.
Through its regional networks and its role as secretariat of the Euro-Mediterranean Innovation Ecosystem Board, ECITD facilitates cooperation between research institutions, industry, innovation organisations and other relevant stakeholders.
Our potential contributions include:
-
Stakeholder mapping, engagement and multi-actor collaboration.
-
Research-industry-policy interfaces and institutional networking.
-
Living Lab networking and cross-regional knowledge exchange.
-
Identification of implementation, governance and uptake barriers.
-
Policy uptake, capacity building and dissemination.
-
Replication strategies and transfer of innovative solutions.
-
Engagement of relevant stakeholders in Egypt and the Euro-Mediterranean region.
Priority Horizon Europe topics:
HORIZON-NATURE-2027-02-03
Networking to scale up Living Labs for nature restoration.
HORIZON-NATURE-2027-01-03
Systemic approaches to accelerate transformative change for biodiversity.
HORIZON-NATURE-2027-02-02
Living Labs co-creating solutions for ecosystem restoration.
We are particularly interested in complementing scientific and technical partners by supporting collaboration, governance, stakeholder participation and the practical uptake of project results.
We are seeking a consortium partner role rather than coordinating the overall project.
We welcome discussions with consortium coordinators and work package leaders looking for complementary expertise in these areas.
